I'm amazed. Someone speaking publicly and truthfully about racism and BLM, and the first politician I've heard in a long time who actually seems to be able to think for themselves and speak the truth.

Let me get this right, Corporate backers of the Black Lives Matter movement support it because its sole objective is to overthrow Capitalism - is that your special conspiracy theory :confused:

Revolutionary movements are often, initially, supported by people and organisations that are in time are killed/ destroyed by the very organisations they helped foster.

Corporations support BLM because they they pay very little penalty for doing so in the here and now and think they can woke wash their (sometimes otherwise very dubious) activities or delay the crocodile eating them.....

indeed increasingly in the US BLM is partly becoming a protection racket where (often small) businesses that don't show their support for the organisation may be additionally targeted, above the base level of violence and property destruction.

Wow, that's the single most balanced and reasoned commentary on the subject I've seen in a very long time! Well said that woman!

Props to her for speaking sense. She'll probably be trolled now what with being a "coconut" and all. :rolleyes:

It really is a battle between feelings and facts. The Left is the emotional, nurturing end of the spectrum, which is why women have always clustered there.

I’m not sure that historically that’s true for the U.K. I remember reading stats that if you removed the female vote retrospectively Labour would have won every vote since 1928 up until 2000. Men were the union members historically. The modern social liberal wing of the left and Labour may have moved that but there seem to be plenty of men driven by whatever it is they feel.

I find it remarkable that some posters on here seem to doubt that racism exists and is not particularly unusual in the UK.

I do wonder whether they actually approve of racism, are so accustomed to it that they just don't notice it or if they live such remarkably sheltered lives that they have never observed it.

The incessant virtual signalling has probably exhausted most people's genuine good will.

Now the first thing many people think when they hear the word "racist" is probably, "Oh, here we go again.." rather than always taking is seriously.

You and a few other posters continue to see racism literally everywhere and in all situations. It's excessive, it's unreasonable, and nobody likes people that constantly cry wolf.
 
Racism does exist yes! but in todays world can you honestly say it only goes one way? every race of human is as racist as the next tbh.
Yeah 200 years ago yada yada but yeah that was 200 years ago...every race was a slave race at some point in history?

Yea, she actually sees sense. Unlike the BLM mob. Though if she was a white woman the guardianists etc would be crying "racist" for this balanced point of view.
