This is racist?

I do not think someone is racist for expressing such a viewpoint. Maybe uneducated, uninformed, willfully ignorant, or just never bothered to question their own beliefs. But usually racism is the last reason why someone would think such a thing.

I used to have the same sort of questions...when I was 15. Maybe even 17 or 18. But after you take a few moments to educate yourself about history thoroughly, you realize that blacks have had a hard go of things in this country and are still being held back, thus making it necessary for them to start self advocacy groups in a number of different arenas. Same for women, they still get paid about 77 to 78 cents on the dollar for doing the same job a man does. They as well need advocacy groups to educate the populace about the discrimination they face on a daily basis.

So to reiterate, I do not think holding your position makes you racist. But the alternatives are none too appetizing either. Go do some reading on history now

Yes well that's fine, we can all talk about how blacks were so poorly enslaved and all... Would anyone like to bring up the Holocaust too while were at it?

What I'm trying to say is - we all know how much this or that minority has suffered. However, bringing it up over and over again is not going to justify the actions of the present.

You can't say that Israelis are allowed to bomb the shit out of Palestinians because they were murdered off by the Nazis, and you can't say that Whites shouldn't be allowed their own ethnic-specific groups just because of how Blacks were enslaved...

Times are different now. If Blacks and Muslism expect people to look at them as equals they should stop making them selves stand out for being different, even if it's in a positive light, i.e. Black accomplishment month or whatever that thing was called.

To get back to my OP... does anyone have anything else to share?

Why is it racist to want your own country to keep its original ethnicity and religion? Why is it racist to support the far right?

Oh yea.. and here's a good head-scratcher. WTF does the far right have to do with Nazis and fascism? Is that to say that socialists have nothing to do with fascism? Stalin is the biggest mass murderer in the history of Mankind, and he looks pretty fucking left to me.

it's not racist to want your country to retain particular features, but it becomes racist when the method chosen to achieve that goal is to discriminate against anyone based on their race. so it's a bit of a catch 22 really, seeing as there aren't many viable options to "keep britain white" without trying to reduce/stop the increase of the non-white population somehow.

the far right IS the end of the political spectrum upon which fascism dwells, that's where it's considered to be by the scholars and the experts and most of the rest of the people who use the terms. Of course, politics being a messy business at the best of times, it's more complex than a simple left-right line. I personally think of it as more of a circle, and extreme fascism and socialism are close to each other, yes. Giving power to any sort of extremist is a bad move, cause once they've got the power, they can do whatever they like with it.

The Nazis (Hitler's Nazis, not necessarily just any skinhead) ran a fascist regime and were racist (along with any other 'ist' you can think of - they killed thousands of gays and disabled people and blacks and all sorts - it wasn't just the jews, although admittedly more of them were murdered than the rest). These are the facts, this is the terminology used to describe/analyse the subject...a lot of people get confused by stereotypes and associations but it doesn't change the definitions of certain things.

Stalin and Hitler have plenty in common, although from what i know about it Stalin killed who he killed because he thought they were resistant to him/his regime...Hitler killed people because of things they had no control over - ethnicity etc. IMO, both men were seriously mentally affected in one way or another, and the power they attained drove them crazier.

In response to the Adolf quote, part of the initial tricks that he played on the German electorate was to convince them that his party were at least a little bit socialist, that got a lot of votes for him that he wouldn't have had otherwise. I'm not denying the similarities between extremist regimes on the far right and left, but using that quote to support them is a lot like using a Tony Blair quote to justify the war in Iraq...it's spin.

May i ask why exactly you feel that whiteness and christianity are such important features of the United Kingdom? Would you support an end to the Union, leaving Scotland, Wales and England to keep their ethnographic roots more strongly? (arguably Scotland's "natural gene-pool" has more in common with the scandinavian than it does with the roman-descendants that populate the south of the british isles, and certainly the Northern Irish are ethnically the same as the Irish, not the English). And how would you address the issues raised by the existence of people of non-white heritage, yet who have lived in the UK for their whole lives, and in many cases are more than 5th generation British?

Fucking exactly!

And again, I don't follow politics over there, but how is a party that formerly excluded people by race not racist? It seems true by definition.

Great post, +Rep for delivery.

Well, to start off, I'm not going to answer the question you asked about the UK coming to an end because I simply don't have an answer. I know the Scots bear a small grudge against the English, but do they really seak an end to the UK? I doubt the majority would like it - after all, it isn't really a problem because Scots, Welshmen, Englishmen and those of Northern Ireland, are all White and Christain, whereas Ali Baba and the 40 other family members he's getting citizenship for, want to install Shirah law and make the streets of Britain look like Riyadh.


And how would you address the issues raised by the existence of people of non-white heritage, yet who have lived in the UK for their whole lives, and in many cases are more than 5th generation British?

Those people are not the problem. We are dealing with the most over crowded country in Europe. Enough is enough...
Non-whites who have been in Britain for 5 generations or more, have obviously done their bit for the country (in World War I and II) and become really British.

There will always be minorities in every country, and that is a good thing. Without minorities, Britain wouldn't be the same. As long as the minority stays non-white and non-christain there is no problem. But when foreigners start turning Whites and Christains into the minority, bricks will be shat.

We all know that the real terrorists are black cells within MI5 and the CIA who just setup islamist and extremist organisations as fronts. So this bollocks about terrorism is not what bugs me. It's just the simple fact that everyone and his uncle wants a piece of the pie. Britain is already so full up.. it's just not possible ffs. And to top it off, these people want to walk around wearing burqa's and veils. If they want to boast about their own religion and ethnicity, they should simply fuck off back to where they came from, since it's "so good" and "better" than British culture. (Try building a church in Saudi Arabia, see how far you get).

Anyway, as a half breed myself, I've never had the luxury of living in my own country, but that's ok. As long as one day my kids and grand kids have the chance of growing up in a White and Christain Britain, the way Britain should be, everything is alright. But until then, I'm following whichever party that choses to help Britain, not drown her with immigrants. The gates should have been shut a long time ago... Now political reperation needs to be done. Whether it's the BNP or the fricking Greens - I will support those who fight for BRITAIN not a politically correct mockery of it.

Some may call it "racist", some may call it "patriotic" - I just see it as the right thing to do for any country.

-Rich

P.S.

I know we are all "children of the universe", etc. - Christains and Muslims get along amazingly well in Arabic countries - I have seen it and lived it. Why is that? Because the Christains over there aren't trying to take over the fricking country!!! That's why!

assuming that your last sentence there was in jest, that's a damn good answer sir. and an interesting point about the treatment of blacks post-slavery, with which i don't particularly disagree

slightly off topic and just out of interest, go back to before the american revolution - at what point after the european whites settled in america did their descendants start being american and not whatever nationality their parents were eg british?

3rd generation? after they'd been there for 5 years? or would you say it's a case of the soil they were born on?
My point is not when the individuals began to think of themselves as Americans, but when they stopped being controlled economically and legally by the British. The big landowners in the south were totally beholden to the powers in London who cared only about agricultural productivity and profit. They found themselves in a feudal system that couldn't survive without slavery, but was being destroyed by it. Jefferson compared slavery to having the wolf by the ears - and not being able to safely hold him or let him go.

The bnp has a long history of being very right wing and also having racist views. their leader, Nick Griffin, has been charged (and occasionally convicted) of stuff like inciting racial hatred blah blah. He's denied the holocaust, he's said gay people are disgusting, and all sorts of stuff about muslims and anyone else with a brown face really.

Most of the british public who don't agree with the BNP brand them racists, nazis, blah blah.

However, they've only recently come into the mainstream of british politics, and because of their policies on immigration (mainly), along with the perceived incompetence of the other parties in the UK, have started to get electoral support.
Whether they as a party still harbour a lot of racist ideals is a matter of opinion, but they certainly used to. But they've been trying to shake that image off so that people who think "i'm not racist...but i agree with this and that" can vote for them guilt free.

My fear, as an absolute opponent to the BNP, is that they put on this mask of "tolerance", use it to get even a little bit of power, and when they get that they'll just do what they want (like every political party), but that it'll be some pretty heinously discriminatory stuff.

If you're interested, i suggest you youtube for "nick griffin on question time" - it's basically just him getting abused for an hour and a half, shoddy journalism and a bad choice by the BBC imo, but it'll give you an idea about what all the fuss is about

Yeah man, i got your point and in fact largely agreed with it!

I was asking about the national identities as an unrelated subject, but one which i'm genuinely curious about. I don't have an answer to it myself, apart from to agree that it is about the individuals and there probably isn't a universal marker for it. Was just wondering about your take on it!

Indeed they're gaining electorial support. Their odds of winning a seat in the General Elections have gone from 500-1 to 3-1. http://bnp.org.uk/2010/02/bookies-slash-bnp-odds-from-500-1-to-3-1/

You know, it's all fine to say the BNP is racist, and harbours racists, and that Nick Griffin denied the holocaust and said this or that. But what it all boils down to is words - not actions. As you have so elequently referred to the BBC's Question Time, then you must surely remember how Nick Griffin clearly pointed out that it is the Labour Party who is responsible for countless deaths of coloured and Muslim Iraqi civilians - not the BNP. The BNP would never invade another country and start slaughtering its inhabitants no matter how "racist" you, and others alike, claim they are. This is the same at home... Does the BNP leading the country mean that coloured people would be persecuted like Jews in Nazi Germany? We are in 2010 - not the 1930s. This is Great Britain for fucks sake - we have always been the leading advocates for human rights. We were the first to abolish slavery, to give women voting rights, and have always maintained a reputation for treating prisoners of war respectably.

All that the BNP is trying to do is to stop Muslims and non-whites getting into the country and trying to change it - it's as simple as that. No one sees them as "inferior" - that's besides the point. The point is, that the UK is over fucking crowded beyond belief with foreigners. If it was overcrowded with whites, no one would give 2 shits about the BNP.

And to add insult to injury, the labour government insists on treating Britons as 2nd class citizens and letting foreigners shit all over us. I have seen with own eyes how White British males have been denied acomodation by the city council and put on a waiting list (in Birmingham) where as a foreigners get 6 bedroom apartments in a matter of a few hours. What the fuck is that?

What I am saying is the truth and no one can deny it, no matter what - go scream racist all you want.

Yes, it is indeed racist and xenophobic to blame to all of society's ills on immigrants and minorities. It was also racist and anti-semitic when the nazies blamed all of Germany's problems on the jews. Until 1933, it was just words too. Any other questions?

You're ignoring the point. The BNP do not blame society's problems on non-whites. May I see where you read that?

Also, don't try to compare Britain with Germany. Even if the BNP were a bunch of stinking "nazis" (which don't exist anymore) - if they ever tried to pull off what Hitler did, all fucking hell would break loose from the Brits themselves. The UN wouldn't have to do a thing.

Now let me spell it out big this time so you don't miss it.

THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN IS OVER CROWDED, THAT'S WHY MASS IMMIGRATION HAS TO BE STOPPED.

And then most of the immigrants that come here do not want to melt into the pot.

They want to hold on to there way of living from the country they come from.

They just wanna be here for our money not to be american.

One of my school friends mom has been here 20 years and still does not speak a word of english.

Now to me that is pretty fucked up,IMO if you come here for a better life your other life you left is gone and with it your old way of living.

You can damn well bet that if i went to live in another country that i would do what ever was needed to melt into that new life.

Now here comes the barrage of your a racist and silly comments.

I don't know if that was meant to be sarcastic, but whatever.

In Britain, Muslims and other non-whites simply do not want to conform to British culture and standards of free speech and democracy. That is another reason to stop them coming in - they're not contributing to Britain. When asked to do so, they start calling it racist and say that it "infringes their human rights".

In such a situation, one must look at things simply to see what is right and wrong.

Great Britain is not Saudi Arabia or Pakistan; I do not want to see women dressed in black from top to bottom, or even wearing veils all over the place. I do not want to see Mosques all over the place either, or Arabic on every shop.
If I want to admire the beauty of Arabic and Muslim culture, I am more than happy to travel and explore the Middle East, which, I have already done; I have lived in the Middle East and spent my very early childhood in Pakistan, (where btw, a nice bomb, planted by Al Zawahiri, blew up next to me and killed my "class mates" - if you can call them that at 4 years old).


Another petty argument that "if there were no immigrants, no one would take the shitty jobs", is bollocks.
To further implicate my point, there are so many foreigners in Britain, that it is leaving the real Britons out of work, even from those shitty jobs! And last time I checked, 99% of servants and cleaners were White, before this mass flood of immigrants, (i.e. Victorian Age).

haha aw rich simmer down i was explaining to the dukeofbaja a bit of background info not calling the BNP racist! i'm having dinner the now but i'll be back to respond properly to your points later.
for what it's worth, the current version of the BNP isn't intrinsically racist, but i strongly believe that its key members were, are, and always will be racist individuals - no matter how well they do at convincing the public otherwise. I know that for me, the things is really truly believe in, i'm not going to just change my mind about them, so i don't see how particular individuals who harboured extreme racist views for years can just change their minds about that either.

Rightio, first of all the independence movement in Scotland (which is largely irrelevant here) isn't about ethnicity but about nationality, and remembering that Scotland is a nation and a country in her own right, separate from the rest of the UK - England was a country, NI was part of Ireland, Wales was a principality of England: England + Scotland signed a treaty together saying yeah let's be a union, and the then King of Scotland (James the somethingth) became the
king of the UK. But that's beside the point.

You appear to equate white with christian - this is just a fallacy, there are a tiny number of white uk-ites who are muslim, jewish, sikh etc, but a pretty damn big group of them who are athiest or agnostic and reject religion of all types.
If christianity is such an important factor of Britain, then I myself must be out of place. Despite being able to trace my genes right back to the dark ages and still be on the british isles, i am not and never have been christian. I'm not anything else, but i'm not christian.

EDIT: there are also a huge number of immigrants who are christian, but of non-white ethnicity...so whiteness and jesus just don't go hand in hand.

Religion is also a matter of choice, and christianity (like most of the rest) has spread throughout the entire world. Do you think that only muslim arabs should be allowed to show/celebrate their culture in the middle east? Or that western trends, sociological phenomena, even companies etc should be confined to the west?

Do you support the various military exploits the UK has engaged in to 'bring democracy to' cultures where democracy is very alien? These are very much the same as those who think the UK should be under Shariah law.
On that point, only about 3-4% of the UK population is muslim, and only a very tiny proportion of them are the nutters who think Shariah law should be/would ever be on the cards here. I disagree with the supporters of shariah law, but i think they're most of them either very stupid or nuts.

Regardless of my opposition to those groups, they are nonetheless partly comprised of people who are british citizens, have grown up here, their parents did too, blah blah they're just nuts. In the same way that the SDL and EDL are nuts, imo.

Apart from that lot, the 'muslims trying to take over the country' (by which i assume you mean women who choose to wear veils and burqas etc), do you criticise Sikh men for wearing their turbans?
I think that in cases where anyone is pressuring any muslim women to wear a veil against her will, then she should absolutely not have to wear the veil. However I know from experience that many of them want to wear their veils etc - it is their choice to respect their own religion and Allah. Allah who is, by the way, essentially the same as God (christian version), who is the same as God (the jewish version). Followers of all 3 religions are the children of Abraham.

Indeed they're gaining electorial support. Their odds of winning a seat in the General Elections have gone from 500-1 to 3-1. http://bnp.org.uk/2010/02/bookies-slash-bnp-odds-from-500-1-to-3-1/

OK bear with me here this'll be a bit disjointed but i think it runs vaguely parallel to that post ^

Generally i find that words are a good indicator of a)the personality involved and b)the actions which are likely to follow. Only very very rarely have i ever heard the sentence "gonnae git us some buckie an tan the bus shelter" followed by the speaker holding a door open for me and then attending a wine and cheese evening (metaphor) - i tend to think if it looks like a duck, and it says "i'm a duck", well...it's a duck.

Yeah Labour are responsible for the blood of all Iraqi (and British) casualties in the 'war', but the conservatives were right there with them saying 'we'd do it too'. Griffin can say that he wouldn't have done that but i bet anyone 50p that if he was PM he would have invaded too. America is one persuasive cunt of an ally.

Whether the UK actually led the way re:human rights is a matter of opinion but certainly they're among the front runners, along with the french and the americans. With so many immigrants to the UK being asylum seekers (not the bogus ones, the actual refugees who would be killed or maltreated in their own countries) it makes sense that as a front runner in the protection and advocacy of human rights, the UK will do what she can to look after those who need protection. Many of whom are non-white foreigners of assorted religions.
See the contradiction i'm trying to point out?

I accept the 'overcrowding' argument, but in real terms it's not the whole country, but areas of it, which are suffering. If they built a few sets of high rises a bit further out of town around each of the main cities then the problem would be solved - obviously the fiscal means aren't currently available, but hey,when have they ever been.

The cases of native whites' housing requests being passed over for immigrants are to the best of my knowledge few and far between. It may seem like a lot if you know a number of victims but that doesn't mean it's happening all over the place.
During my first hand experiences up at the job centre and getting my benefits in, I almost never came across actual immigrants apart from eastern europeans eg polish.
In any case, if Thatcher hadn't sold all the bloody council houses there would be plenty to go around (irrelevant but i'm a thatcher hater).


It's likely that each of our perspectives on the real life implications of immigration are skewed by the differences between our locations. Sounds to me like you're in an immigrant hotspot - i amn't. I personally feel absolutely no threat to the current values of our country (although i wouldn't describe them as 'christian') or to the already diverse cultures which coexist within her.

Moving on, the figures from the last census (albeit from 2001) show that 92% of the UK populace are white, 4% asian or british asian, 2% black or british black, 0.4% chinese, and 0.4% 'other'.
Yeah, it's been 9 years, but even with our immigration figures/records, i simply refuse to believe that there can have been more than about 10% of a swing in any one direction. Which means there are still probably at LEAST 80% whites...no way we're getting drowned out. Next year's census will certainly be interesting!

Anyway, loving the LOSING THE DEBATE pic, but dinnae worry i never meant to call you a racist - apologies if it came across that way!

p.s. holy fuck that was a lot of writing

why are we, in 2010 talking about judging people based on the colour of thier skin, i grew up in east london, a "culturally diverse area" colour and religion doesnt mean anything.

i live with 2 other black guys(not fully black mix race) and 2 other guys might move in soon, black people dont behave differently, thier enivironment teaches them to be that way, the most dangerous people i have met are always white. ive known muslims who pray in the morning, and then eat friggin bacon and sausages for breakfast, to them ramadan is sneaking into the chicken shop without beinn seen. as i see things, the 1st generation immigrants may not conform, but thier kids damn well do, just look at jamaicans, altho my parents and or grandparents may have not liked them, the last time i saw my grandparents they were laughiing with trhier jamaican neighbors who they lived with for 30 yrs, i gave them some of my special browines and i think i improved evry1s health.we may hate each other now, but hopefully one day we will accept each other. i rememba back in the days of class c, i knew these guys, some white some black, growers. good growers, me and some of my guys smoked with them n we talked bout this shit. would u never want to eat chinese food, many times my black friends wanted to go to the cafe and get a english breakfast, but i made us go to a carribean breakfast, plus they didnt mind if you came in high.

sorry for going on and on, im really high.
