Definitely not a racist.

Canada says Indian government could be behind fatal shooting of Canadian Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in June bbc.in/45Xk6AE

Most work colleagues I've had have said racist things, people I worked for the same. I see racism all the time in in the media .... so what am I saying? This obsessive, heat driven effort to call out transgression as a way of proving personal purity is corrosive and unhelpful.

There are people on twitter who have built a whole persona on 'catching people out' about race. They always seem to play for a particular side. One I can think of has even changed sides, like a football transfer' and played for the other team. Almost as if it was a game....

@bsazzled @LetsStopC9 Marvin has undoubtedly faced that racism but anyone who thinks the decision was motivated by that is misguided.

@LetsStopC9 Bristol was a slaving port it has a long history of racism AND racism denial

I am seeing more and more extreme racism on Twitter and now we see it encouraged on national prime time tv by the Home Secretary: “white English girls” and then more. She is an absolute disgrace. People will feel the effects of this more and more - sickening where this takes us.

@AquariusSydd Could be your ableism, misogyny, laughably incorrect opinions, who knows so many things actually.

Tbf a lot of people blocked me when I had to gather a few mad people together. Especially those narcissistic activists across the pond with abuse allegations.

@AquariusSydd @HugheeJaynus You can also read the obiter dicta of SHELLEY V. KRAEMER(1948) and more recently you can engage with a text based on over 150 expert contributions Encyclopaedia of Asian American Folklore and Folklife J Lee K Nadeau. Failing that try Wikipedia 🙃

@AquariusSydd @HugheeJaynus Also worth engaging with Ayer, A. J. 1936, Language, Truth and Logic, Dover, New York, ACLU cases relating to Latinx, Hispanic communities, Hawaii Civil Rights Commission and.The Office of the Race Relations Conciliator New Zealand Te Kāhui Tika Tangata

The term has never been specifically directed at South Asian communities, though. Ethnic minorities that deliberately aid the advancement of racist and anti-Black systems and institutions are in no position to cry about backlash.

@HugheeJaynus @AquariusSydd Please tell me you didn’t just call me a white man??

Just saying “white people can’t suffer racism“ is lazy & technically incorrect. Lots of ’white’ groups can be racialised because of their ethnicity. Saying white people don‘t suffer racism because of the colour of their skin is the term you should be using 👍🏽
