A Black woman sits on the DC Metro surrounded by alleged white nationalists preparing to march on the nation's capital. Nothing happens to her. She is completely safe.
A White woman sits on the Charlotte metro surrounded by other Black passengers. One of them stabs her in the neck from behind and says, 'I got that white girl,' as she bled out and died.
Who's the racist now?

I have a regular customer who is very senior within the NHS. She said that racism *is* massively on the rise, and it seems to be all she deals with now. But, she said, its not racism from white British people as the impression is given in these reports and surveys, its cross-ethnic racism.
There are fractions between different Asian groups that refuse to work with each other, or within African groups that bully each other, or the Asians won't work with the Africans, or abuse against the East Asians like Phillipino or Vietnamese. And then, of course, the British nurses that get abuse from non white ethnic groups, both patients and staff.

😂 Oh, the sweet, sweet smell of progressive hypocrisy in the morning.
The Oxford branch of "Stand Up to Racism" has just launched a petition... opposing the government's plan to house 1,250 asylum seekers on a former MoD site in Bicester.
Their devastating reasons?
"Lack of infrastructure."
"Massive strain on local facilities."
"The town might become a far-right target."
"And the facilities aren't good enough for the poor migrants."
Not in my backyard, bigots! This one’s got rainbow flags on the porch and a "Refugees Welcome" gnome in the garden... until the delivery van actually shows up.
You know, the same "infrastructure" and "facilities" arguments the rest of us have been screaming about for the entire country for years.
But apparently when it’s your charming little market town instead of some working-class area that’s already been culturally enriched to death, suddenly it’s a crisis.
Stand Up to Racism, everybody. Just not in their town.
Classic.

21 years ago, The Guardian reported that by the year 2020:
1️⃣ The Bering Strait would be open year-round
2️⃣ European ships would routinely pass through the Arctic to reach Asia
3️⃣ Polar bear populations would decline
4️⃣ Snow would disappear from the tops of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya
5️⃣ Sea levels would start rising by 7 mm / year due to accelerated Greenland ice melt
How have these predictions fared?
Not well, they’re batting zero.

Today, as every day, we remember Diogo Jota and André Silva, who tragically passed away one year ago.
Through immeasurable loss and incalculable pain, the impact they made and the legacies they left behind - not only within the footballing world, but in the hearts and minds of so many around the world - has shone through over the last 12 months.
All of our love, support, thoughts and prayers continue to be with Diogo and André's families, friends and all those whose lives were touched by them.
Forever in our hearts, forever our number 20 ❤️

He suffered ligament damage, stayed on to help defend a corner, and was still the first one back at the AXA. He's just a sensational man, Wataru Endo.
