You could find articles from any country ( not that I read any that you posted) saying exactly the same thing.
So we had terrorism from the IRA during the 70s. Well there were answers to that problem, and by the 90s it was virtually non existent. The left have imported a perpetual terrorist problem.

Which āminoritiesā are you talking about here?
US? UK? Globally?
In the US not all. āminoritiesā fall on the same side of the political spectrum.
Many Asians are conservative leaning.... age is a bigger factor.
Cubans in Florida were on-board full throttle with Republicans till recently.
Latinoās in general are more religious than Anglos in the US and would flock to the Republican Party if the Republicans could jettison the racism.
Interesting how you try to lump all āminoritiesā into a singular world-view.
Racist much?The ram wrote:

So you say āeverything was great in the UK 50 years ago.ā
Then I point out that it wasnāt, and you then say āthe 70ās were difficult everywhere.ā
So youāre agreeing you initial statement was wrong?
Britain has rarely been a ācohesiveā unit.
When attacked by external foes or in times of crisis(like in WW2 or maybe against Spain) they rally together like most people.
When not attacked by outside forces the British people seem intent on defining the differences between themselves.
Politically that place is a mess and always has been.

I donāt believe I ever said it would be good.
I said I think itās going to happen. Not anytime soon, and I could be wrong, but I see no other solution.
(I think we either have a WW3 resource war, or we unite.)
Now, wether we come out on the other side with a āgood govātā or a ābad govātā... IDK.
Itās also very subjective.
Who stops a major govāt from doing what it wants now?
That argument is moot.
I will say one ātoolā govāts use to help control their people is āfear of outside threatsā from. other govāts/people.
If there are no āOtherā govāts/people to āscareā us then that is one less ātoolā a govāt can use for propaganda.
(Iām sure they can invent others... Iām just saying one obvious one is off the table.)
Iām not naive to the fact that govāts (of all sizes) are possible incubators for corruption.
That is true today and will likely continue to be true for as far as I care to speculate.
I donāt think the size of the govāt has anything to do with it. There has been corruption/tyranny in the USA in small isolated towns, in whole States, and at the Federal level. There have been times where the largess Federal govāt has stepped in to eliminate or reprimand some smaller jurisdiction; and there have been times where smaller jurisdictions have stood up against bad laws or corrupts the Federal level. Having some division of power is helpful, but ultimately the people must be intelligent, interested, and care.

Well, that's what the PR would have you believe. There was nothing polite or rules-based about the UK government's brutal repression of the Catholics, Irish, communists, women etc. right up until the 20th century.
The below photo was taken on the streets of Glasgow in 1919:
Ireland, 1920s:
Not that the UK is any worse in that regard than any other country.

Um... no I didnāt agree to anything of the sort.

Racist much?
Maybe if we didnāt enslave their people for several centuries and then oppress them for another the results would be different.
What happens when Black Americans do improve their community independent of white involvement?

Yeah um... not.
You see it only one way.
I see feminism as change with both good and bad sides. I see a possible one-world govāt as having both good and bad aspects.
You have this glossy view of history as unvarnished utopia... it wasnāt. Sorry.The ram wrote:

So I'm racist because I ask you to give me a single example of black and white living in harmony? And you excuse any animosity that the black community has towards whites because almost 200 years ago blacks were slaves. Do you feel guilty?
How the hell am I confusing the spirit within a community with violent uprising? You're getting desperate and just picking random words out of a hat, it seems now.
The Versailles treaty broke up large parts of Germany and put some German people into different countries, where their treatment was bad. The French occupation of parts of Germany was akin to an invasion. The French soldiers treat the German people horrendously, whilst sucking the resources of Germany. Hitler reunited the parts of Germany that were taken away by the treaty. Would he have went further had Britain not declared war? We don't know, but every story has two sides.
Were you brought up by a single mother?

It goes from racism to outright support for the Nazi regime.
Germany was treated poorly by the Treaty of Versailles... but Poland wasnāt part of pre-WW1, and the German Jews fought FOR Germany in WW1.
Please stop defending Hitler.
Youāre not a racist because you ask a question... youāre a racist because youāre a racist.
Explain Tulsa/Black Wall Street?
I donāt anyone for doing something wrong, but I do understand Black animosity because of the way they have been treated by this country and āwhite Americans. Yes slavery ended over 150 years ago... but oppression of black Americans continued and even today ānearly 200 years after slavery endedā there is still systemic bias that makes it much harder for African Americans to experience the āAmerican Dreamā.
Get a clue.

The only thing I know about black wall street was a film I watched recently about 2 black guys that used a white guy to buy banks, due to the discrimination the blacks would have faced trying to buy the banks. It was a good film, how much of it was true, i don't know. The black guys served their community well but were ultimately betrayed by the white guy. Can't remember the name of the film. At least it wasn't out and out racist like queen and slim.

No Jimbo, I just gave you a real history lesson. Check it.

Says the guy that banned me for making a thread detailing 3 asylum seekers attacking a lady in her 70s and spitting in her face, saying I hope you catch Corona virus. Without a single derogatory word of race. Then he declares that he is an asylum seeker, and that's why he felt so strongly about it.
So I can't love my heritage, culture and people but you can shut down debate because you have something in common with 3 truly despicable characters. Anyone spot the irony dripping from this buffoon?
Go on dumbo, just quote a single racist post from me, tick tock......
