Who is blaming you?

She takes every opportunity to look like a fool.

No idea what point you think you're making.

Well, it has certainly induced an incandescent rage within me, that's for sure.

I'm so fucking upset and annoyed. I hate that all i can think to do to register a protest is cancel my Disney+ subscription.

For “preemptive” read “unprovoked”, “heinous” or “illegal”.

May US imperialism and all of its little satellite genocidaires fall, and quickly.

The USA represses its own population. Carries out extra judicial killings. Terrorises and threatens its neighbours. Seizes company assets. Manipulates markets. Kidnaps and inters minors. Spreads disinformation and interferes in elections. Is openly corrupt and driven by ethno-nationalism.

The USA is a relentless source of global catastrophe and has been for decades. In the past, the violence and pillaging was slightly tolerable because USAID and support for UN and WHO. Now, there's absolutely nothing redeemable about the US. It's a pariah state. The worst in the world.

And that's the issue, isn't it? Because what they are revealing is that they are aligned with those voters and actually _do_ share those values. Otherwise whey are 150k "Unite the Kingdom" marchers more important than 150K "End the Genocide" marchers?

💯

The thing is, people believed the Labour Party when they showed us they were a "Pound Shop Reform". What did they think would happen? People would listen to Shabana Mahmood and be like, "Oh, she has a point, immigrants are ruining the country! It must be true because she's Asian and everything."

She never fails to disgrace herself.

I dunno, they could have not proscribed a pro-Palestine group and then arrested a bunch of pensioners and imprisoned a load of activists for voicing their support for that organisation. Is he for real?

Correct. Class division is only for white people, who have no ethnicity. Class doesn't exist people with ethnicity. They are allowed "tribal' or "sectarian" divisions or "poorly understood, complex historical tensions".

It's hilarious that you'd voluntarily label yourself a "centrist dad". 😂 You know it's an insult that means "poorly informed middle class man who thinks he knows best just by mere virture of being a man and reading a few books now and then" 😂😂😂

Completely irresponsible and click baity headline from the guardian.

Did they broadcast his other swearing? If they cut that nut not this then it's something else.

Here's what I can't understand. They bleep/cut swearing all the time. There's no excuse for them not cutting it

Of all the people to be angry at, a guy with a profound disability, is really low on my list.

No. So you can understand another perspective. If you come away thinking the same then fine, but you ought to get some additional input before condemning him to wearing a gag or living his life in isolation.

You really ought to watch the documentary.

Here's my bottom line. I have compassion for every black person who took a knife to the gut when he shouted the N-word. I also have compassion for the guy because he has a profound, debilitating disability that has ruined his life. I can sit with both things.

So when you wrote "health and life outcomes are much worse here", where is "there"? I took it to mean they were worse in the US than in the UK. Was I incorrect?

😂 Wait, are you asserting that Black British people have colonised racism? Oh man. Please, come here. I beg you to. I'll show you the ends. We'll have a good time. Meanwhile, here's a song for you to enjoy: www.youtube.com/watch?v=isMj...

And that's fair enough.

"an analytical lens for examining race and as a practical means for addressing discrimination and structural inequality" One could, if so inclined, use the same lens in the UK.

Nowhere does she say that being Black in America is a disability. She says experiencing racism is disabling. The nuance is there and is important. It refutes your point that somehow things are better for black people in the UK. We experience systemic and structural racism, just as you do.

Ok, but R U Sure?

Black people exist here in the UK, you know? I'm one of them (as is Delroy, who is from my ends!). But that aside, there's no easy answer here. It was painful to watch, and the depth of my sorrow lies in a society that is profoundly racist, as well as one that confines people with disabilities.
