Black Lives Matter

Mate.
There is a form of "caste system" in most countries.

Divide and conquer is real, yes. So is racism. Difficult balance to fight both equally, and I feel there is a lot of divide and conquer right now.
Ultimately we are in a class war and the upper few are managing to keep billions fighting each other...but we have to stand against racism too. In a real way. Not (IMO) silly black squares as we sip lattes!


I totally agree, and it's exactly what I have been saying.
 
Why exactly?

Only one here is engaging in name calling.

Tell me what you want to see improved on instead of just blanket calling an entire country racist.

Obsessed with making money and embracing a capatlist system founded on oppression, instead of acknowleding systemic racism that has never been dealt with. Sums it up really.
 
I'm not going over it again. I've said enough throughout this discussion on what UK decision makers should do.

Change education, acknowledge, set out a proper plan and vision for steps forward.

I agree the decision makers have to make the major move, but it seems and this is not a dig at anyone, but within all the fury, all the articles, all the shouting, all the debates etc no one ever sets out how they would like the future to look like or how? The piece on here the other day did a great job of looking at the past as past that you are right, should not be covered up, but these people live now, with me and you, surely as the current it is also down to the communities that know better than anyone to engage on what changes they want to see. Even an Obama could not solve it because although being a black man in America he is do far away from the struggle to make a decision for the good of change.

There also has to be a want of change, we can sit here and debate but there also has to be a change to safety net that is used in some black societies that use the past as an excuse for criminality, not everything can be attributed to the slavery of pre 1830s. The examples of kids being found with large knives and older member of the community more worried about the police social distancing than the horror of the knife needs to change.

What labouring on building sites so i could afford a season ticket at Tottenham and then to buy my first flat, to take girls out for a meal and to buy a car. How are any of those things wrong? Your starting to sound like an extremist.

Perfectly normal things for a kid in his late teens early 20s to do.
 
Developing 'socialist' views after you've exploited your privilege and raped the system.. fudging coward.

Privilege? I grew up on a council estate, not far from papercut(if he is still around) i worked as a labourer after leaving school at 15. I have mentioned this many times on here over the years.

What on earth are you going on about? Yes im white but as about as working class as you ca get. I earned the deposit for my first flat myself no one gave me anything.
 
You ok hun, you seem angry a lot lately

If some of the things he has said tonight were said to him im pretty sure the person saying it would be banned.

Maybe a kindly mod can ask him to cool off a bit.

No idea how i am coming across as the bad guy when i say that police officer is a murder but that people should not be held responsible for what happened 200 years ago. As for becoming more socialist as i got older, well maybe it was getting sick but i want to see a fairer world.

Some of these protesters do more harm then good for their cause.
 
ISome of these protesters do more harm then good for their cause.

Thats it and thats the point I made the other day. The problem is you say that and someone comes on and makes out your some Nazi sympathiser. People get so emotional that omit to read what you are actually saying and make up their own conclusion, probably based on who is posting. I have no doubt on that what so ever as it happens alot.
