I see on the news that our racist police force attacked some peace loving party goers last night. And then ran away.  Can anyone explain to me how Cressida Dick keeps her job? I can't remember any Met Commissioner who has been so inept. EDIT: Just realised she came out as lesbian in 2017. Job's safe then, they wouldn't dare sack her. |

The more you look into BLM the more insidious they look. The name is exceptionally clever because it makes it simple to accuse anyone who criticises the organisation as being racist. The movement and the statement aren't one and the same, but the thick white lefties who are down wid der black bredren and go on de marches can't work that out. And neither can Hammy, it seems.
This guy explains the difference much more eloquently and doesn't look like a privileged whiteh while he's doing so.

I think we need to separate the slogan black lives matter, which is important, with the political group who are just a bunch of anarchists profiteering on the message.

What and have a nuanced debate on the subject? Are you mad? That's far too complex for all the numpties who have bought into sound-bite sloganeering and virtue-signalling as the real solution to any problem. |

Someone was bigging up Ben and Jerry's for their stance on the whole thing and someone replied with this pic which made me larf.

Why are Twatter links invisible here? Even if I disable my ad blocker I can't see them?

Those simply confirm to me that this planet would be far better off without people on it. |

We're only a resident on a host that can sustain us. When it's fed up with human life or cannot sustain it anymore we'll evolve into things that can breathe in a different mix of air, live under a less ozone-protected sun and understand that when a new baby is born an elderly, sick or lame relative must be sacrificed to maintain food and clean water supplies.
Actually all of us dying of malnutrition as our food chain becomes a higher percentage of plastic than vitamins, allied to the consequence of depleted fertility due to lack of vitamins in that foodchain is the most likely scenario

Actually, reduced fertility is already something of concern due to the measurable quantities of female hormones in the water.

Very well said but who was it written by? If that's the official line wont the snowflakes start publicly cancelling them? I do agree with it. There is no way that anyone from the past who has a statue commemorating them lived a blemish free life and I would argue that the people calling for their toppling probably haven't either. One day some of the things that we do today may be seen by future generations as abhorrent whether that be the burning of fossil fuels or buying unrecyclable plastic products or eating fish that was not sustainably sourced. We know these things are bad but we do it anyway and perhaps if we lived 200 years ago and had money to invest, we might invest it in a company that trades African slaves because that's what people did. It's easy to look at it from our modern perspective and criticise historical figures for their actions but that leads us to forget the good things they did that led us to a statue being made of them in the first place.

Taken to the illogical conclusion, anyone not of native American heritage would be removed from the USA etc etc. Would the removal of all non native heritage Brits be received well do you think? After all what place do they have being here? The Colosseum in Rome should be demolished because the Romans kept slaves, some of them black. How dare anyone have a monument to slavery?

I’m fairly certain it wasn’t written by an official of any Oxford college. The sign off; “Yours, Oriel College, Oxford” just confirms it. |

As is mentioned in that video, what would have been the result of letting ALL the information out earlier? A completely different picture emerges.
