I mean jeez, all you have to do is look up "Jeremy Clarkson racist" and you're gonna see a bunch of stuff about super inappropriate "jokes" about African people, Asian people, he's been sued by past staff for his hostile and casual racism behind the scenesz with crew members of color about. not to mention the vile things he has said about Meghan Markell, since he's one of those guys who thinks she's not pure=white enough to be a Royal.

If you are one of his fans who can look up all the awful racial shit he has said and make an excuse or justification for it, or brush it away. that's another matter.

I hate the guy. He's always come across as a sharmy asshole to me, so I disconnected from him very quickly. I just didn't know if there were recordings of this. His environmental history was enough for me.
