Hey Zionist, I know you want to milk your moment to bring an end to pro-Palestinian marches & get Met Police Chief fired but you best keep Black people out of your mouth. Why is it that White people like Gideon Falter never fail to weaponise 'Black people' when it suits their agenda? Met police LITERALLY unfairly targets & threatens Black people on a regular basis and has done so for centuries. He got a tiny taste of what it's like for us with 'you're openly Jewish' (Black ppl hear worse by the way) yet he didn't get molested, assaulted, arrested, criminalised & stripped of his liberty in that moment or even in fear of his life from the Police and all of a sudden its 'imagine if it were a Black person?!' The utter caucacity of the erasure of our experience is White privilege on steroids. It's #StephenLawrenceDay and we are still dealing with false equivalence bullshit. #GMB
My view of Police saying ‘Openly Jewish’ remains the same however to turn this into an ‘imagine if this was a Black Person’ is not just intellectually dishonest but morally disingenuous. Hell! Met Police issued 2 apologies within hours - TWO! When has it done that for Black ppl?!
By Met police I mean every form of policing in this country including its predecessors and those ordinary White folks who were self-appointed 'honorary Police' exercising their right to threaten, harass, arrest & kill Black people for even as much as looking at a White person the wrong way. So yeah that 'unfair unjust racist treatment' goes back centuries!
