I havenāt said anything of the sort, I said what I said (or wrote) you and Tasmania either didnāt read what I wrote or more worryingly donāt have capacity to do so.
No one is free of prejudice. Pie isnāt defensive of anything, he is merely pointing out and correctly shutting down conversation drives it underground and does nothing for our learning, did you get offended for Rotherham? Oxford or many others? Do you get offended for merely things that purport your actively known or subliminally conscience and agenda?
What do you do about the slave trade in the UK now? Or elsewhere?
Guardian readers are laughable in their World conscience which expands as far as Wandsworth on a clear day from Islington.
Please can you rewrite your post in English and articulate your point so that its comprehensibleā¦ then I may be able to respond
You point your indignation and outrage selectively to fit your agenda knowingly or not.
what agenda? please elaborateā¦ as this is amusing
Your bias agenda on racism. I never saw any outrage concerning anything before this, its selective, youāre late to the party.
Please tell me what my agenda is? I am all ears as you are not making any senseā¦
Your agenda is one of bias, in short youāre biased.
But youāre human, weāre all biased.
What am I supposed to be biassed towards/against?
Youāre biased in the way you bring to the fore Black lives matter which is correct but youāve always been silent on Rotherham, Oxford and many others, have you always been concerned about Black lives or has it taken this American action to awake you? Africa is and has been a place of genocide for centuries.
Is this more about you than the people you supposedly care about (now), Iāll be honest I donāt think you actually know what you want and what youāre saying, what are you even proposing?
You havenāt proposed anything yet and few actually disagree with actually no one I know disagreeās with Black lives matter, but what do you want?
You are fucking strangeā¦ this is a thread about Black Lives Matter, read the title. But you seem to be replying to some imaginary post, as it makes fuck all sense as a response to mineā¦
You seem unable to grasp a very simple conceptā¦ that you and your constant griping about folks who YOU think are on some āright onā mission, the 'PC gone mad brigade ā of yesteryearā¦(see Pies latest taht you posted) the constantly offended blah blah blahā¦ are distracting from the issue itselfā¦ so what if a few guadianista are getting offended by everythingā¦ seriously, at least they raise the issueā¦ Those making these folks the focus of their whining could be assumed to be less bothered about the issues themselvesā¦
As for the rest of your waffle asking about my how long I might have been concerned about these issues, 1) that has fuck all to do with my point, and 2) you are distracting againā¦
Did they raise the issue about Rotherham?
Youāre a bandwagon jumper, maybe some of us have been exposing and advocating the same rights for all the World over for years, you appear to blinker yourself.
I bet you canāt even tell me what Black lives matter is? To me its a Western organisation that centres on Western lives, what about Black lives in Eritrea? Sudan? Female emancipation in Niger?
Youāre better off if you have western guilt joining and giving money to amnesty intl or many other good causes that help people at a huge disadvantage.
You havenāt answered what you want from this movement either.
You donāt like Pies video as it refers to you, youāve called me a racist before totally without cause to as you didnāt agree with me, I think you should look in the mirror.
This is just too ridiculousā¦ you really are not worth the effort.
This struck me as vindictive, and smacks unpleasantly of bullying. Without actually quite saying so, the piece seems to imply that the estate of Nina Simone doesnāt consider the actress black enough to play her, while Zoe Saldana herself makes the point that she views herself very much as a black woman. But she is now apologising, after previously defending her performance and her right to portray the singer. I can only think that the BLM movement and the environment it has produced has pressured her into the sickly apology. I also notice that the IMDB rating for the film is 2%, which must be some sort of record. Can the film really be that appalling? 
Me and the tame Geordie on board have started a protest of
āWhite Lives Matterā as we are being victimised in having to do 2 weeks quarantine whereas the local Malaysians only have to get a swab test before they come or go offshore.

Last night I watched āThe Australian Dreamā (on BBC iplayer) which was shown last week. Its a compelling but shocking insight into the wholesale, endemic racist attitudes in Aus towards indigenous people.
The focus is on top AFL star Adam Goodes, an aboriginal player, who took a stand and was treated abysmally during matches and afterwards by large chunks of the population, as recently as 2015.
If you have any interest in BLM and / or Aussie sport, it is well worth a watch.

The treatment of the aboriginal peoples in that part of the World have often gone unheard as its quite bluntly not in America.
