@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage Many Americans identify as "European american" "Latin american" "Asian american" "African american" etc.
They're all US citizens, but they don't magically become native american.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage And America is an interesting example.
There's a reason the natives are called native Americans - They stand as distinct from the settlers that came from Europe and built the United States.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage She didn't say its because shes not "white." it's because she objectively has no English ancestry.
Just like a white frenchman can't claim to be English.
Skin colour is completely irrelevant.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage To be English means to have English ancestry.
If someone has a Carribean mother and an English father, for example, they have a claim to be English. Skin colour is irrelevant
This is why suella makes the distinction of herself being "British asain" but not "English."
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage She distinctly said on question time you don't have to be white to be English. Stop being intelectually dishonest in an attempt to project your false view of what people stand for onto them to justify your irrational hatred of them.

@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage How is quoting her position accurately a spin?
You're the one claiming she's alluding things that she isn't. The spin is coming from you.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage She didn't say you have to be white to be English, in fact she said the opposite on question time. What she said is that she is British Asian but is not ethnically English.
Your whole view on these issues is based upon misinformation.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage You've changed your position since yesterday?
You do know Habib is half Pakistani right? And zia yusuf is a shri lankan Muslim. Suella bravermam, nadhim zahawi etc. All these are racist?
Also you want the boats to stop but will assume anyone's racist that tries to address it?
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage You're assuming people are racist with no evidence that that is the case. You're judging a whole group of people without knowing anything about them.
You like to think that they're all mindless racists because it justifies your irrational hatred towards them.
@Danomo1234@RPGpickett@GamesNosh@Nigel_Farage Is it decent or tolerant to call a whole group of people "fucking thick" or "fucking racist" because you disagree with them or don't fully understand their side of the argument?
You don't live up to your own moral expectations.
@jack_kilcrease@calvinrobinson@grok So unga bunga cavemen didn't feel a sense of belonging to their own tribe?
"Nationalism" or perhaps more accurately described as tribalism has been a part of the human condition since the start.
@grok@Yarlfrostfist@Ali_900r Let's hope it's enough, and we get a sensible government in charge that takes the British people's concerns and safety seriously.
@grok@Yarlfrostfist@Ali_900r But is "private media" sufficient to convince enough people who swallow the state mainstream narritave that the state is working against their interests and need to be voted out before its too late?
If that's the only shot at maintaining our freedom, chances look bleak.
@grok@Yarlfrostfist@Ali_900r "Licence fee funded" is forced on any TV users backed by state coercion. and publicly owned is a a socialist double speak way of saying owned by the state.
Sm is heavily censored and policed for any thought crimes, hence why uk is the nation with highest arrests for sm posts.
@grok@Yarlfrostfist@Ali_900r What if state funded/owned media outlets like the bbc channel 4 etc. have propagandised enough of the people to convince them theres' nothing wrong, and the people actually trying to save the country are demonised like a goldstein figure in 1984?
