Coronavirus Thread III: The Show Must Not Go On (READ OP)

[Rojava Free State]

You mean Africans are dying more from a disease than people in Britain? Did you also know that 100% of American scientists are American?

Well that's one way to admit you hadn't read the article, which is comparing the BAME and White populations of the UK.

Coronavirus patients from black African backgrounds in England and Wales are dying at more than triple the rate of white Britons, a study suggests.

You can't blame me for seeing that when it says "black African deaths three times that of white britons." Like why didn't they just say "black briton" then?

Because UK statistics often draw a distinction between black Britons of African and Caribbean extraction.

The Black Africans are Black Africans living in England and Wales, not Black Africans in Africa.

Once again, yes I didn't read the article. Frankly I think the headline is pretty flawed then if it refers to black people living in England as "black africans" and white people as "white britons."

VVictori's cheif has compared Covid-19 to Captain Cook. She said that both an "invader from another land, decemating populations and creating terror". She also said that both Cook and Covid caused people to make significant sacrafices and change how they live. What exactly does she hope to achieve from this post? Cook died a quarter of a millenium ago? What exactly does she want us to? Build a time machine and blockade him? Unless she's just virtue signalling. And in that case, I'm glad that somebody whose job it is to protect us from the concurrent global appocoloypse is sitting bloody virtue signalling

virtue signalling [n]: term that is far too often used to dismiss an opposing opinion that is based on morals, ethics, or ideals, when the introduction of such into a debate could critically undermine one's stance.

Then say African Briton. Just saying black african isn't really accurate.

Well then, call my bluff and answer my question:

What is she trying to achieve by comparing the actions of someone who died 250 years ago to a disease happening right here and now?

It's a British article aimed at British people. We know what they mean. Not everything revolves around the US.

Her surname is van Diemen. She is very white. I think you might be right about the virtue signalling: she's going to the point of absurdity to prove she's not on the side of those white invaders.

Look you replied to a post without reading the link in it. You asked a silly question. The sensible thing now is to just stop.

Is that not what she's doing? Someone please let the chief know that the British sailor threat has been neutralized, but the actual deadly pandemic has not been.

Australia is still the most popular country fro Brits to emigrate to. About 30,000 of us move there every year. We're still a menace...

Not bad for a penal colony, really.

So people aren't allowed to draw parallels or make comparisons with historical events now?

A guy from Britain showing up is not the same as a deadly plague. You can see an invading army but a disease is invisible, and the disease doesn't care what race you are. If it can kill you, it probably will.

It's a long read but I think it's worth it. And I can't help but agree.

No we assimilate you.

We get you drunk, strip you naked and release a brown snake to make you dance. Then it's an emu to peck at your bouncing genitals, you have to sing ALL of the national anthem, then wrestle the emu to the ground ... and you're an Aussie now.

Saying the latter would be FASCISM, unlike all those gun-toting white people who show up to intimidate state governments.

Because they don't speak American in Britain.
