It's in no way redundant, or a platitude, but don't let the English language get in your way.

let me set you straight. pay attention, you might learn something ;)


Redundancy would imply that the two words have the same meaning, or that one implies the meaning of the other, which isn't the case. A racial stereotype could hardly be seen as mundane, meaning that there are stereotypes that are not mundance, and hence a stereotype that IS mundane could certainly be described as such.

lets look at some definitions. courtesy of our friends at www.dictionary.com

stereotype: A conventional, formulaic, and oversimplified conception, opinion, or image.
Mundane: Common; ordinary; banal; unimaginative
Platitude: A trite or banal remark or statement, especially one expressed as if it were original or significant.

now in this context, the term stereotype is used in a perjorative sense. how is the use of mundane necessary. it's a double negative, in that mundane only has a negative sense. so it most certainly is a platitude, and in its use the precept mundane was most certainly redundant.

For it to be a platitude, it would have to be trite or meaningless, which it clearly isn't given that you didn't even understand the meaning of the statement. Did you just throw darts at a dictionary, trying to sound smart, and come off more like a failed internet hero?

awww you sound kinda stooopid now don't ya? no need to be antsy cause y'alls english homework didn't go so well. :D

Mundane was used as an adjective ya clown! A stereotype is a noun according to the dictionary. The two words have different meanings. What a goose!
 
rooboy07-a second good year, a third maybe. I am not saying anything negative about Selwood at all. At least he is actually going to be a superstar, unlike Pendlebury and D.Thomas
You are a deadset dicknose. Pathetic attempts all round to troll and then you drag out the same old lame ass responses of pies fans being feral, unemployed, no teeth, etc, etc. Time for some new material sheepy. In regard to Thomas and Pendlebury your absolute jealousy at not having these guys is plain for all to see. And if you think that neither of these players will be stars along with selwood then you are playing with yourself. (again).

Crow-Mo-no you clown, you're presuming that actual performance today is the best indicator of future performance. which in players that young, of different roles, types, and physical proportions is just garbage.Nothing Gibbs has produced or looked like producing has won me over. The only reason u are going into bat for the guy is because of some wishfull thinking that he will oneday come back to S.A. As I said to Bluez, rightly or wrongly #1 draft picks are judged more ruthlessly than the other youngsters. Yeah Gibbs did ok, but from a #1 pick in a dodgy team I along with almost everyone else expect better than just o.k.

Clearly Joel Selwood is the best under 21 player he won the rising star by a mile and dominated the comp in his first year.

Yes but other players under 21 were ineligible last year due to number of games played - Murphy, Deledio, Pendlebury, Thomas, Birchall etc.
