Coming to terms with late onset Anarchism
In a self-selecting group of people drawn together by racist beliefs I can’t see why you’d choose to specifically reference the unpleasantness of one, single sex subset.Because?

If groups like this target autistic people that is a valid observation, but saying "there are some very unpleasant autistic men" appears simply unnecessary when commenting on those organising around deeply repugnant world views.Because unpleasant autistic men are a target group for PA, and generally us autistic people aren’t sadistic nazi nonce types
The more you say about this, the more uncomfortable I'm finding this. With the exception of "resentment of ‘normies", these would appear to be antisocial attributes that might be found widely in society and almost certainly in higher concentrations in groups drawn together by an antisocial world view. I don't understand why you'd feel it necessary to draw attention to the 'unpleasantness' of a sub-set of followers that happen to be autistic.Their ‘appeal’ to autism (and they do this) is based on the sort of deeply unpleasant mindsets you find in some autistic (almost exclusively male) people. Superiority, sexual entitlement/rage at sexual rejection, resentment of ‘normies’.

Damn, you're right, the best way to oppose racism is to talk about something else and pretend racism isn't an actual issue. That's always worked really well in the past.

He didn’t talk about racism. He made a decent case about continuing to take a knee to highlight the need to oppose racism. But he didn’t talk about it, he just took it as read that everyone thinks racism is bad. Anyone listening who didn’t already agree with him would just think he ignored the question about white people becoming a minority in ‘our own’ country. Because he did. It only required a brief retort Along the lines of ‘people have been saying that since the war, that white people would be a minority by the eighties, the turn of the century, whenever, but it’s just not true’. Ignoring it does nothing to change the terms of the debate and just risks further alienating victims of racism.He did talk about racism?? Just not on the caller's race oriented terms. He talked (in an unfocused non committal way, he is Sir Keith after all) about real issues not the made up ones the caller was on about. That was absolutely not the time and place to start trying to debunk replacement theory and it would have had a knock on effect on BLM if he had tried. People are going to listen to this stuff because it plays to their fears and that's not going to change if you unpick some of the details in a couple minutes on a phone in. Starmer made BLM look like they are harmless to white people (which they are of course) and that's exactly the opposite of the caller's implication. Job well done.
If this year has taught me anything, it really is that most anarchists are just wet bloody liberals
Yup, and I’ll probably stay till they kick me out. Costs little, I pick up a few bits of useful info and it’s slightly irritating to some of the right.Me too. Are you still in the Labour Party by the way?
I wasn't aware until now having heard a longer clip that the lovely ethno-nationalist Gemma from Cambridge also said that her hubby had been at the MIllwall game and joined in with the booing...Well colour me surprised.
I've never read that full exchange before - pretty interesting 'cause although Brown calls it a disaster after he gets into the car, its actually difficult to imagine a party leader as on top of the detail as he was in that exchange now.I'm just wondering if the risk of repeating this traumatic incident is what terrified sir keith:

I'd reckon that bit was probably/most likely made up just so as to get on to ask the question in the first place.
v interesting - may be missing something obvs, but why do we think it's fallen off a cliff ( temporarily or otherwise ), Oct - Dec ?
So where have I done that thenStereotyping minority groups
The revisionist Starmer clique has suspended Liverpool momentum Merseyside activist Alan Gibbons. Unclear why at this stage, but it seems pretty kafkaesque.
can you explain how it’s both unclear and Kafkaesque at the same time Jeffrey?
