I'll have some book news in the next few days...something in the scifi space :-)
one can hardly expect objectivity from a BBC so in hock to the right wing that any racist statement is amplified without context and explicitly racist action and terror are framed as 'after X, then Y' as if racism is a reasonable response by reasonable people. And all in the name of 'impartiality'
good to see BBC News legitimising racist pogroms. What weasily editorial framing @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social will adopt to avoid calling racist people racist this week.
There are no legitimate concerns - there is racism masquerading as manufactured fear while people of colour cower in actual fear
Give me good news today people because yet another summer with pogroms is not one i want to doomscroll over as the government does nothing and the #BBC indulges in its own brand of middle class racism rather than condemn racists.
my boy (17) was playing online with 6 of his mates last night; They had a lengthy, boisterous argument about the nature of trust. I sat listening in wonder. When someone said something really dumb the response was - 'even a chatbot's going to disagree with you'
I've thought about that a lot
