Literally the state of things. She’s just gotten suspended for antisemitism. Why? She said Irish, jews, and travellers did not have it as bad as niggers.
Diane’s original comment to the observer (
https://archive.ph/dKPch )
Racism is black and white
Tomiwa Owolade claims that Irish, Jewish and Traveller people all suffer from “racism” (“Racism in Britain is not a black and white issue. It’s far more complicated”, Comment). They undoubtedly experience prejudice. This is similar to racism and the two words are often used as if they are interchangeable.
It is true that many types of white people with points of difference, such as redheads, can experience this prejudice. But they are not all their lives subject to racism. In pre-civil rights America, Irish people, Jewish people and Travellers were not required to sit at the back of the bus. In apartheid South Africa, these groups were allowed to vote. And at the height of slavery, there were no white-seeming people manacled on the slave ships.

Kunt Starmer: It was anti-semitic
Jews everywhere are shitting and pissing themselves, kvetching. Untold legions of conservatards screeching about antisemitism. Nothing about Irish people or travellers. Everyone agreeing that Anglos are “the real baddies”, so tiresome!
Of course she promptly pussied out — afterwards she tweeted she “wholly and unreservedly withdraw my remarks and disassociate myself from them”, saying the wrong draft of her letter was sent, like a typically dindu. How do you disassociate from your own remarks?
But there is no excuse, and I wish to apologise for any anguish caused. Racism takes many forms and it is completely undeniable that Jewish people have suffered its monstrous effects, as have Irish people, travellers and many others.
The whole debate rn is nauseating. Conservatards yelling “antisemitism” and leftards arguing that the dindu should be forgiven because wypipo are the real problem. Sad.

I can vouch for the Irish but the jews created the slave system that nogs and Irish were in.
Not really sure how bad nogs had it considering the history of limey brutality against Irish in the US and Australia

"The Conspiracy encourages and publicizes only the most kooky, ridiculous, simple-minded, knee-jerk extremism, in order to turn you OFF to ANYTHING EFFECTIVELY "ALTERNATIVE"!
Of course, you can't blame the Con for taking advantage of a good thing. All those "special interests" are but the visible froth on the great heaving sea of "victims." Fashionable crybabyism, an orgy of denial of any responsibility for one's situation, especially denial of the fact that even within this society of co-dependent cross-victimization, IT ACTUALLY REMAINS DOG EAT DOG. It's who can out-victim who at this point. The Conspiracy sits back and laughs. It's babies squall and bleat and wet themselves."
