Slavery aristocracy class racism and Eugenicists.
It's no surprise that an institution that at its core believes in its own genetic superiority and that of the aristocracy is going to be steeped in racism.
That's exactly how it's justified hundreds of years of conquest, genocide and enslavement.
White privilege certainly does exist. It's just that the rich mostly white privileged who run the country- are holding back working-class kids of all Colours. I recall it was The British wealthy racist aristocracy classes who supported Hitler and fascism.
Aristocracy, They privatised community wealth
Accumulation by dispossession.
Landlords colonised ‘the commons’.
Our ‘Common land’
Erecting fences and walls to keep us off the land that was stolen from us way back.
Nationalism suits the landowning classes
because it gives people a sense of ownership
without us actually owning anything at all.
It’s the territorial trap of nationalism.
Nationalists need borders
because they need some certainty of where their loyalties end.
The greatest lie of nationalism
is that it defends the interests of its nationals. They’d say:
“You might not have land but at least you have England.”
Nationalist and non-dom Lord Rothmere
owner of the Daily Mail group trust parent company is registered in offshore Bermuda.
Rothmere is a kind of migrant-
as far as the inland revenue is concerned.
He typifies a view of fascism as a wave of the future and the foundation for a new order to replace parliamentary democracy and self-determination. Enthusiastic about Hitler (whom Rothmere met several times) until 1939 and supporter of Mussolini (who he called the “greatest figure of the age”), “The fact,” he wrote, “is that quite a large number of people now possess the vote who ought never to have been given it.”
Equally opposed to female suffrage. Rothmere’s notoriety today in this regard revolves mainly around his full-throated support for the British Union of Fascists in 1934 (“Hurrah for the Blackshirts”) was a Daily Mail headline.
Today it is estimated that one-third of the great estates held by the National Trust as ‘historic homes’ are linked to colonialism and the slave trade – with some using forced labour on their premises, notably Churchill’s Chartwell estate. Yet the rise of industrial tycoons as a rival power base and a Great War that devastated their ranks pushed the aristocracy into ‘survival mode.’
The aristocracy has a core, which is the preservation and perpetuation of an elite lineage, that they believe is ultimately about ‘purity’ of the ‘blood’
They Believe in the plantation system and racial segregation that has been practised from Ireland to the Caribbean and the American
South.
They Would resist all manner of self-determination for people and democracy, preferring authoritarianism.
Doesn't that sound familiar right now?
Certain world Nationalist leaders are obviously blindly programmed to preserve their selfish genes!
It is all part of the culture war Steve Bannon spoke of.
Dumbing down, Farrage hates the ‘arts’ Bannon and Trump dislike Education and Culture- we can see what they are doing right now, smearing ‘education’ and insightful learning...enlightenment and knowledge.
Higher learning might lead to ‘bad’ things such as democracy and equality!
They want to own the story and the narrative...
They Don’t want people to have their narratives told, to learn how to tell their narratives themselves, and to be educated because they would then question and doubt the system...
They might make up a song or poem, that might go:
‘The queen’s no more important
Than our Auntie Sadie
Not are all the Lords
and aristocratic ladies
The clocks didn’t stop when our grandma faded
No work halted when our auntie died
The Earth didn’t stop revolving around the sun
no fifty-gun cannon salute, we just wept, we cried.
Though they made the sun revolve around the earth
When uncle died
There was no fifty-gun cannon salute
There’s nothing wrong with feeling other people's grief
While we were distracted
They couldn’t stop the autumn leaf
From falling…’
They have one of those white-supremacist-Lifeguards at the shallow end of the gene pool where the ‘master’ race is treading water. Believing that the population are waving...not drowning.
A leader whose fundamental design flaws are completely hidden by his superficial design flaws...
Steve Bannon, the ideologue and spokesman of the conservative rich and tight-fisted aristocratic white supremacist and racist elite, financially powerful gentry, directly has connections with right-wing U.S. Republican businessmen and think tanks.
In 2017, Steve Bannon asked Nigel Farage to be part of a "convening authority" to "knit together a populist nationalist movement around the world" This is
TransNationalism. Rich Thatcherites like Farage and his chums...they’ve colonised us here in Britain.. they’re calling it ‘sovereignty!’
Slavery is still with us. The mentality that created it is still here.
What do Afro-Americans, and black folks feel in the Southern states when Confederate flags that symbolise slavery are paraded through the streets?
Christian right fundamentalists even go so far as to thank God for slavery!
The US penal system is a sophisticated form of racialized control and works like Jim Crow, perpetuating the legacy of slavery.
The recent racist commission report failed to provide any evidence for claims there was no institutional racism in the UK.
That controversial report into racial disparities in the UK attempted to “normalise white supremacy” and UN human rights experts had told the UK government to reject its findings.
The experts also criticised the report’s “mythical representation of enslavement” as an attempt to sanitise the history of the slave trade. In a statement released on 2 April, the commission rejected the “wilful misrepresentation” of its views on slavery and said the report “merely says that in the face of the inhumanity of slavery, African people preserved their humanity and culture”.
EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL. Existing is a political act when you’re not a white, middle-class, heterosexual, man, asserting your right to a privilege you already enjoy. Like paying to wear a suit you already own carrying a banner saying "White lives matter". or ‘All Lives Matter’. I wonder What is the manifesto of white lives matter? Do they have anything they'd care to put in writing?
Are these the same people who shout out “But what about colon cancer ?” to all the people marching and takking on breast cancer awareness day?
Kneeling is Not any more political than those laying wreaths at the cenotaph in remembrance.. of the fallen
And many have fallen
Steven Lawrence for... the Kids who died in the Deptford firebombing.
If black children are old enough to experience racism white children are old enough to learn about it.
Racism isn’t a touchy subject if you’re not a racist.
We can see how racism and the rise of Fascism had begun by picking people out, singling them out because of their race or religion.
In certain Newspapers I've mentioned-
We are taught to believe it is US against THEM
But We are also THEM.
Kids will play together until someone teaches them to hate others…
people teach their kids to grow up to hate. I’ve met them. I went to school with some.
Today It’s still classic divide and rule.
I recall what we sang when I was a kid,
‘When Black and white Unite we’re dynamite!’
