Churchill was an absolute enemy of anyone who isn't a racist imperialist tool.

"I do not agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place."

---- Winston Churchill

Absolute only quote you need from him to decide he isn't anyone worth looking up to.

Rassistische Schlagseite - Krawalle in #Amsterdam

Nach den Ausschreitungen in Amsterdam fühlen sich niederländische Muslime an den Pranger gestellt

„Bereits am Freitag hatte die antirassistische, feministische Partei BIJ1 die Öffentlichkeit alarmiert: »In den letzten Tagen haben uns die Gewalt und der Rassismus, die unsere Stadt erschütterten, zutiefst beunruhigt. Amsterdamer arabischer Herkunft und diejenigen, die sich mit der palästinensischen Sache solidarisch zeigen, wurden bedroht und kriminalisiert. Wir sind überrascht über das einseitige Vorgehen des Dreiecks und von Bürgermeisterin Halsema. Wo sie zu Recht die jüdische Gemeinschaft unterstützt, wird die Sicherheit der Palästinenser in Amsterdam vernachlässigt.« Mit dem Ausdruck Dreieck wird in Amsterdem die Bürgermeisterin, die Polizei und die Staatsanwaltschaft bezeichnet….“

"Immigrants or refugees do not have a higher tendency to commit crime and there is no correlation between the proportion of immigrants in a given district and the local crime rate, according to a new analysis of the latest German crime statistics carried out by the renowned IFO institute.

"These insights aren't actually new," says study's co-author Jean-Victor Alipour. "It just proves what has already been proven, not just for Germany but for many other countries: Namely that there is no systematic connection between immigration and criminality."

I'm hearing some conflicting things about on-platform #Racism and I'm hoping to get a more comprehensive picture.

Black Users Only: Why do you still use Mastodon? Would you recommend it to a Black friend and if so, are there resources to help them safely navigate? If you're on your way out, would you feel comfortable sharing where, so I can share? Mostly folks exiting Bsky

Hesitant to ask for free labor and will not be offended if you choose to respond just with hashtags to follow.

Thank you.

Why have there been *no* fascist riots in #Scotland so far?

Because we all work very hard to make #NewScots safe.

For the past two years I've been working with others in local government, the third sector, universities, and Scottish government on this : https://newscots.scot .

We are held up as an example by UNHCR of how to promote welcoming, trauma-informed integration, even while Patel, Braverman, and Jenrick (and the press, and Yaxley-Lennon, and Farage) screamed for blood.

And it works: yes, of course there is #racism in Scotland, but so far we've been able to resist the horrors in England. But it requires a continuous, thoughtful commitment across all layers of society. It isn't a "natural feature" of Scotland. We achieved this.

To be honest, I think this was all about gender politics. There may be some #racism at play, but in this #election I think it was miniscule compared to the #sexism - and I say that as an old white guy living in Europe
