    Revisionism again

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ok-claims.html

    Stonehenge was built when Britain was a 'black country', new children's book claims
    • Brilliant Black British History is by Nigerian-born British author Atinuke
    • It also claims 'every single British person comes from a migrant'

    The only surprise is that the beaker folk aren't accused of being slavers.

    Then again, the Red Lady of Paviland was actually a chap and we don't know what his pronouns were. .

    The world is doomed.

      There is a word for when one group of people attempt to destroy the culture and history of another.

        Are you proposing that Indian widows should be permitted to throw themselves upon the flames of their husband's funeral pyre?

        Or are you, as I suspect, being a tad selective?

          Are you proposing colonialism is not an act of racism and racial/cultural supremacy?

          Or are you, as I suspect, trying to gaslight people?

            I'm proposing that not all cultural change is for the worse.

                Cultural change by coercion is fundamentally bad, even if you think it is morally justifiable.

                Take the Peckham shop incident. The black community think their racism is morally justifiable, doesn't stop them being racist.

                  The whole community? When was the poll? UGov or Gallup?

                    Again more gaslighting.

                    Yet when people talking about Britain's misogyny problem or Britain's white supremacy problem any calls of NOT ALL BRITONS/MEN! get shouted down as denialism.
