To assume bias is just what some say it is, is a fallacy…

I mean, it isn’t rocket science.

Yes, the west must do better. Developed countries must do better to address biased laws and application if biased laws, BUT, when someone flee a war, gets taken in and then starts moaning about stuff he/she never had access to, grates with their host (naturally)..

The skin bleaching industry is apparently booming. Why?

I read an article this morning that was written by a black lady complaining about a white interviewer whom she alleged was racist to her. In the article she wrote: ”even though I am light-skinned”… So, it would appear a light-skinned black lady expects better treatment than dark-skinned black ones?

We are supposed to accept that racism is a one-way thing…

It isn’t. It has become a mindset plaguing even those who allege they are victims of racism

We all have biases. Yes, some have faced the brunt of it for longer, and when you rope in the impact of awful laws and daily issues, yes, we do have some work to do. BUT, people are beginning to take the piss! Black celebrities being shocked when faced with what many non-celebrities face on a daily basis and they throw a hissy fit! Yes, nobody should be subjected to nor have to put up with racism or racist abuse, but fir goodness sake! STOP THE BLOODY WHINING!!! abuse is abuse: be it racist or non-racist, religious etc. Decent folk refrain from abusing eachother, but I do not see anyone immune to hurling abuse, if suitably provoked. Now, whether that abuse then take into account, the appearance of the person they are about to insult, is just conjecture

The non-stop moaning has become such a distraction, while crucial issues around disproportionate response to people seeking sanctuary (based on where they’re from) and other serious disparities continue to slip through the net. Someone attends an interview and gets rejected, it has to be because of their race! Yes, racism is still rife and yes, people are stripped of opportunities, BUT for godssakes! it is not the reason each and every time!!!!

Same for sexism! does it mean every female CEO is going to be excellent? Yes, nobody should be denied an opportunity because they are female. But I am sure that not every female handed an opportunity will excel
