"I regret appointing him.

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy we have a newspaper here called the Daily Mail which has launched an on-going virulent attack on Harry for years ever since Harry said they had hacked his telephone - which they had.
Notwithstanding, my terrible countrymen who see Megan as being a black person in the Royal Family as anathema.
I am a republican but dislike them being criticised for these matters.
Megan could have been used to stimulate British fashion, too, a missed opportunity.

@Geri @Remittancegirl @GeofCox Daily Mail is indeed pure garbage, but it's simply meeting massive demand for racism. That grassroots racism is much older than Harry and Meghan. It's Hitler's Nazi eugenics. It's what drove centuries of genocide, slavery and apartheid.

"I regret appointing him. If I knew, then what I knew now" KS
Five mins later #BADENOCH asks
"Can the official security vetting received mention his friendship with Epstein?"
"Yes, it did" Starmer replies
He's ....
@Geri I so hope so Geri.... I so hope so.
And then we get... Wes? Oh shit...

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy does the mind rule the body or does the body rule the mind?
Is racism an atavistic trait, wrapped in promotion of one's genes and fear of another's that since the Stone Age man has never escaped from ?
Are we homo inferior ?

@Geri @Remittancegirl @GeofCox it's tribal hierarchy and caste, rooted in anti-scientific bullshit. Like Hitler, almost all Westerners agree that certain inbred, light-skinned groups are genetically superior to darker people with more genetically diverse ancestry. In fact, inbreeding is known to promote genetic diseases.

@JimmyB well Wes is the sort of man who, when he walks into a room, lowers the average ethical standard, and if Starmer walked in after Wes, then the average ethical standard would be lowered further

@Geri @Remittancegirl @GeofCox Queen Victoria's descendants across Europe are among the most inbred humans of all time. They're still widely revered and admired for this, even though they suffer from extremely high rates of hemophilia and a variety of other genetic diseases. Meanwhile there is enormous contempt, shared with Hitler, for the most genetically diverse humans, black Africans:

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy What would have happened if the Industrial Revolution had started in Ghana ....
Is it just by circumstance that fast flowing rivers are found near coal and iron ore deposits in one particular place in England

@Geri @Remittancegirl @GeofCox Jared Diamond has a great book(and documentary film) on that question:

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy I am not denying genocide. I am saying that in modern times, the UK is not led by racist leaders.
What evidence have you got that says I am wrong here
Please don't use personal remarks, thanksShould you care to even casually glance at my TL you will discover I am very outspoken about the righteous cause of the Palestinian people and other marginalised people elsewhere, including ICE matters in your country
Hi @Geri, could I drop a recommendation for the book I'm currently reading?
Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race, by Reni Eddo-Lodge
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_I%27m_No_Longer_Talking_to_White_People_About_RaceI admit I was put off at first by the slightly combative sounding title, but I've found it to give a great description of the structural racism which permeates this country, the racial narratives and fears that circulate in our media and conversations— it shows how open racism as just the tip of a much larger iceberg of racist thought and attitudes. And it shows why even the politicians who don't openly espouse racist beliefs enact racist policies.

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy what was its conclusion?
@Geri @Remittancegirl @GeofCox several, really fascinating. For example, Eurasia has the vast majority of the world’s domesticable species, but Africa has very few. Eurasia is East-West, and the same crops grow at the same latitudes from Atlantic to Pacific. Africa is North-South and has far more climate zones including the enormous Sahara. Really interesting research.

@HarriettMB @Geri@mastodon.online
@Geri @Kerplunk Blair, Mandelson and McSweeney are a trio, and their links with various companies are dangerous. All need to go along with Starmer and Streeting.
Absolutely agree.
Blair met with Jeffrey Epstein in Downing Street while still prime minister,
Epstein boasted of his close relationship with Tony Blair at least eight years after Blair claimed to have broken off all contact with him.
Blair visited Epstein in New York numerous times Branson was also mentioned

@Remittancegirl @GeofCox @jonesmurphy yes, but, if you pardon the pun, industry was forged on steel
The Bessemer means of making steel gave the UK economic hegemony in the 1850s and the 1860s
My contention was those circumstances were not replicated elsewhere?
