    1) that's long.
    2) Browsing through it, it's bull****. There was one bit I saw where it said that if multi cultural societies are so great why don't multicultural neighbourhoods have the best schools. That's a false hypothesis. It's down to school funding and a load of things, not the race of the children who attend.

    The few minutes I watched were laughable if it weren't for the fact that it's aimed at stirring up hatred. The only people who would buy into that are people who have an existing bias or are just stupid.

    Offcourse you dont want to watch the truth,i know it hurts.
    Its always the easy way out to say its stirring up hatred,when in fact its telling the truth.
    You want to see a neigbourhood in Sweden.
    here is how an immigrant neighbourhood is in Sweden.
    Is this stirring up hatred too,i wonder who is hating who here,just my 2 cents.

    If we look at the numbers killed by a particular race then I'm pretty certain that white people would be at the top. From world wars to colonisation, they've got the record. If we even just look at the post war period, most wars were proxy wars between the USSR and the US.

    I don't believe that a white person is any more inherently violent than a person of any other race. But I would say that white people are responsible for a fcuk load of misery in the world. Both can be accurate and don't contradict each other.
    The biggest mass-killer in human history was Mao Zedong. Socialists were by far the worst mass killers in all of human history. Nazis were closely related, as, like the communists, they despised Capitalism. Hitler condemned capitalism explicitly throughout his life. Also, the Nazi label was only applied to them after the end of WWII, Nazi is a pejorative short hand for National SOCIALIST.

    If you want to know if a regime is capable of mass murder to the point of Top 10 genocide, there are two good predictors of this:
    1. Are they imperialists?
    2. Does their ideology have anything to do with Communism or Socialism?
    If either of these apply, watch out.

    Well the good news is she ended up as an equalities advisor for the Labour party.

    Not a great move from Corbyn

    Every time i hear of a political party hiring someone as an 'adviser' it seems to be a very badly advised choice...

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    A good solid pick by the Labour party. Should be able to bring a lot to the discussion on racism. Maybe bring in Nick Griffin as well for some balance.

    “In my head I didn’t think there would be that much of a problem in identifying that racism is coming from white culture, white privilege, white supremacists. Society is built on the premise of white supremacy,” she told Channel 4 at the time, pointing out that her mother and that entire side of her family were white.

    “I don’t see how calling out the roots of racism, somehow makes you a racist,” she added, calling the controversy the “worst time of my life”.

    A spokesperson for Butler said: “Dawn is proud to stand with those challenging discrimination. Dawn will consult with the LGBT+ advisory group on a wide-range of LGBT+ issues.”

    And that's from The Guardian.

    In front of cameras the Tories condemn her comments, but behind the scenes they're probably celebrating this **** up.

    You gotta love Labour. Always focussing on the really important and vital stuff....

    And then they wonder why they have lost the working class vote in the UK.

    Pointless stunt move from Corbyn. The whole trying to be 'down with the kids' schtick won't translate into votes, might even loose them a few.

    Just when Labour were emerging as a credible alternative to the Tories they do this.

    Torries are a mess and Labour are ****wits.

    For some reason, Labour are ignoring the reasons why Miliband was hammered at the last election.

    They also overstimate Corbyn's popularity as well - if Corbyn were going to become Prime Minister, it would have been at the last snap election when May was figuratively on her knees.

    He couldn't beat a lame duck Prime Minister then. And he won't beat her successor.

    This woman is a clickbait merchant. Feminism, racism, homophobia, lately some people are using these topics as a self promotion tool, to secure a career or as a get rich quick scheme

    The results of the most recent election suggest otherwise. They lost working class votes when they stole the Tories' clothes and became an economically centre-right party, ignoring the needs of poorer voters. Under Corbyn, they've been regaining the working class vote.

    The only people upset about this are the easily-offended "oh no, racism against whites is the worst thing ever" brigade. And they seem to exist mainly on the internet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Are Am Eye


    Wait a minute, who is "they"
    Who is "white people"?


  • Registered Users Posts: 277 ✭✭CosmicJay


    I'm genuinely convinced that Labour has been infiltrated by a bunch of conservative actors to make the party as much of a laughing stock as possible.

    Couldnt make this stuff up.

    With their worst Post-War Prime Minister.....

    They're hanging on by a thread, under constant pressure from Corbyn. He has done a very good job of turning the Labour party's fortunes around, especially with working class voters. To claim otherwise is laughable.

    I honestly wouldn't be hailing that as a sign of Tory populairty, considering what was predicted to happen.

    Not at all. Labour has a problem with working class whites in England. It is why Labour have literally gone awol from the whole Brexit issue. The Torries are on their knees, waiting to be spanked but Labour are scared stiff of a backlash by actually having to outline their position on, well anything.

    They don't want to piss off their core vote in the midlands and the North of England. The closer they move towards this type of idiocy and intersectionality, the more they will lose the working class white vote which will go to any party smart enough to grab it.

    Other revelatory news of groundbreaking proportions:
    - Water = wet
    - Grass = green
    - Trump's hair = alien in origin

    A highly ill-advised diversity hire - it's what objectification truly looks like. I mean what kind of deplorable hate do you have to spread in order to be shunned by the left? They will deserve the fallout.

    Virtue-signalling level: incompetent

    So why is she and others with that same mentality doing in our Countries then? Get the **** out if you don't like us.

    She's British. In any case, I've seen a lot of white women complain about "all whites being racist" and men being overly apologetic about sexism.

    White men apologising for their privelege is new-age Catholic guilt.

    As long as they keep opposing Tory cuts (sic) and put forward good alternative policies, Labour's support will continue to rise. Most working class white people just aren't into the whole "oh woe is me, the bad black woman said something bad about white people, waaaahhh double standards waaaaahhh" nonsense that preoccupies some of the more easily offended and delicate little flowers on here. :)

    It’s a thorough rewriting of Irish history as well.

    Actually the thing about Corbyn is he clearly isn’t - despite this - into identity politics. If fact the identity politics wing of the Labour Party tried to oust him.

    Someday the Labour Party will have a leader who is all identity politics and the white working class vote will desert en masse.
