"..North American Black History Month kicks off with the now traditional ‘wailing of the c*nts’

Black History Month has officially begun across North America with the ritual social media harping of predictable fuckwits making tedious comments as to not having a month for other ethnic groups or how Britain abolished slavery.

Simon Williams, a joyless knobhead who regularly tweets support for Donald Trump despite never having left Lutterworth, was one of many to join the yearly chorus of increasingly unsubtle racist comments that mark the beginning of Black History Month, even though it doesn’t reach the UK until October.

He explained, “This year was a bit of a pickle as the Brexit anniversary fell on the same day and we wanted to make sure we were fully involved in celebrating that. There was nothing official really but we sort of all agreed to wait for Thursday before we could take to social media and claim that there is no racism anymore because of Wilberforce.

“It’s a big event in our calendar, so a lot of us were unsure if this was the right thing to do. It also came at a time of transition as we want to move away from btching about how kids should learn about Florence Nightingale and go towards calling any general awareness of Britain’s failures ‘woke brainwashing.’ But better late than never.”

Mr Williams maintained that he fully understood the importance of him and his fellow bellends in kicking off the annual celebration of BAME contributions in the nation’s past.

“BHM is a big part of the calendar for attention-seeking alt-right trolls like myself. I will never fail to tarnish a perfectly good initiative in the study of history by desperately trying to shift the focus towards my tribe of incel malcontents.."

Yes, that is it.   You still have yet to figure out that you support the bad guys.

"..Climate protest is not a crime.

Or at least it SHOULDN'T be a crime. But in our capitalist, neoliberal world, it is.

Greta Thunberg and four other climate activists were put on trial today after being arrested at a protest outside a gathering of fossil fuel bosses in London last October.

Speaking about this, Thunberg said...

"Even though we are the ones standing here, climate and human rights activists all over the world are being prosecuted, sometimes convicted, and given legal penalties for acting in line with science."

"We must remember who the real enemy is. What are we defending? Who are our laws meant to protect?”.."

His name was Michael Parks. I did not know him nor the existence of that show..
Parks was a mainstay in Tarantino movies.

A lot of countries don't. We are heading in that direction.

Good guys and bad guys both have free speech and a secretary of state doesn't have more power than the legislature, the people's house.

This is how left wing authoritarianism begins.

But hey, that how you get Eco terrorism and bombings.  It's coming.

You know it. That's the premise behind the hate speech mantra.
