I wonder, as part of her life-long process of uncovering her racism, that she donates all the money she was paid in the Netlfix series to the BLM movement? I doubt it because her words are just another example of white people on social media trying to outdo others in their white shame. Sometimes I wish we could take all of these like-minded people (and the thread creator) to a land mass somewhere away from normal people. I was thinking maybe Antarctica ..... but then again it would be deemed too white already. Strange, strange world we are living in now boys and girls. (I can still call you "boys and girls", right?)

I'm very proud of my Irish heritage. Likewise most European countries are proud of their heritage no evidence that is changing. British people are an extremely proud nation. Some might be able to acknowledge the harmful things done by the British empire, Cromwell in Ireland for example, but they can still be patriotic British people. Where is the evidence that is changing, some randomer on Twitter doesn't make it so.

Actually anything that slightly inconveniences any one of a minorities instantly becomes racist regardless of facts. But to show that you are not racist you need to immediately pander to these people, concede all points, and associate no blame to them, instead deflect to racist actions of the past to in some roundabout way justify the attacks. You ll see no coverage of black attacks on whites during this, you ll see no virtue signalling for it to stop, theres a air of "its ok" when it comes to blacks attacking whites.

GF got all the attention because it was filmed, with witnesses. It is a focal point but not the sole cause of the demonstrations. If cameras weren't there the killing would just have been another man does resisting arrest. So now the criminal justice system in the US is racist against white cops, that's just nonsense. There is another thread discussing that killing, so I'm not getting into details but if DA wants to press charges it is not because of the media. There must be strong legal reasons.

I'd assume it's to highlight the socially tolerated racism against white people by black people, and the hypocrisy and double standards of some posters on here.

In your post, which I'll quote again below for you, you openly admit to imagining up a scenario and then get outraged by it. Why are you trying so hard to be a victim?

"Ending my portrayal of Missy is one step in a life-long process of uncovering the racism in my actions," Slate said. The show creators issued an apology and say they "regret" their "original decision to cast a white actor to voice a biracial character.” That 's practically racial segregation. Plenty white animated characters are voiced by black VA or other ethnicity. Should they now quite their roles as well. This sh1te is getting ridiculous now.
