Did either Mugabe or Smith serve, or even try to join the RAF...? No but then the nature of threads is to digress slightly when someone makes a sweeping statement. We seem to know that 160 white men did try to join and were turned down and the only reason seems to have been that they were just ethnically wrong. We progressed from there to the here and now. |

As Alison Pearson states in her opinion piece, the UK is becoming too woke to defend itself. They'll see us coming a mile off.  |

Interesting.
He might have met one of my two relatives who joined the RAF in WWII, one of who was aircrew...

The whole conversation became quite hysterical some decades ago and never really recovered equilibrium. The particular question of the the racism of white people has been examined in tedious (ands apparently never ending) detail - with new adjuncts and libraries added every few years However, the simple fact is the vast majority of people on planet earth are racist and so the question really is , why all this specific focus on the potential racism of one group in particular? My best guess at an answer is that it is a grift and making white people feel they should continually apologise for their existence is part of the grift No matter what you say or do you cannot force people to like each other |

White privilege, white fragility and white guilt are all tools in the process of turning the world against white people which by the way will include Jews. It will not end well. |
