How many of the homeless in America, Australia, Britain are "some old white guys"?

I don't  think, nor do you, that Kanye West or Kamala Harris are white even though they are far more affluent than me or most white people anywhere. The former supported Trump, the latter Biden.

As for patriotism, you are talking nonsense (again),  as if the 19th century was a reliable guide to the 21st.  Louisiana was French once, Alaska Russian. Does that mean heir inhabitants today, 200 years on,  are tainted with being less patriotic?

You have a little learning but you really don't know what to do with it, other than regurgitate it randomly.

Your inner bitchy fag is at high noon.

Get out of the toilet block and google the issue with identifying as Hispanic in the southwestern states of the US and most parts of the south.

Unbelievable you haven't heard of the 'white guy' negative epithet referring to 'unearned' privilege and affluence and used ad nauseam by 'the woke' and many non-Anglo groups particularly in the US, but also in the UK and Canada.

Thank you, parrot.

As you were. We'll  call you.


Who's we'??


The sane.


Well that certainly excludes you, Soren.  You are the most insane person here.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes


Cheesy Cheesy
Recognising you as a befuddled cockwomble who yawns and tut tuts is not insane, Bbwian.

Did you once have another id here where you pretended to be a woman?

That was my Aunt Agatha, my tough aunt, the one who eats broken bottles and conducts human sacrifices by the light of the full moon.

My Aunt Agatha is tall and thin and looks rather like a vulture in the Gobi desert, while Aunt Dahlia is short and solid, like a scrum half in the game of Rugby football. In disposition, too, they differ widely. Aunt Agatha is cold and haughty, though presumably unbending a bit when conducting human sacrifices at the time of the full moon, as she is widely rumoured to do, and her attitude towards me has always been that of an austere governess, causing me to feel as if I were six years old and she had just caught me stealing jam from the jam cupboard: whereas Aunt Dahlia is as jovial and bonhomous as a dame in a Christmas pantomime.

There's more to it, of course, but that's enough to satisfy your curiosity for now.

American Racism.
Australian Culturalism.

The physical and the mental.

Two accusations handed down by the Media people and culture against those who would seek to turn off their TV's like 'heretics' and non-believers.

The problem with the racist comments is deciding where to draw the line. The way I see it, if people like Pauline Hanson can get elected, then we need to be able to discuss some race issues without censorship, just as politicians can point out the real problems among some ethnic groups. Once you allow that, I can't see any consistent way to distinguish a 'valid' political view from an unacceptable racist attack. If you think you can, please let us all know.

Racism is generally bad. It denigrates people, it discriminates people, all on the socially constructed ideal that White people are best, they are the greatest.  The reality is, they aren't.  They are just as venal, just as greedy, just as rapacious, just as corrupt, as everybody else.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

But, but, but, you said '"Racism" is a social construct without evidence'. If you have no evidence of racism...

You might be surprised to learn that in Britain. most incidents of ethno-chauvinism ('racism') occur among ethnic minorities - between Pakistanis and Indians, among African nations, and among Caribean nations.

The usually pejorative terms "racist" or "racism" each have too many
subtle variations of semantics in their usage, making for a difficult,
non-emotive debate.

As a lifelong atheist, I despise the religion of Islam, and radical Muslims.

   Does that make me an ethno-religious racist?
