Is It Both Racist And Homophobic For This Italian Politician To Show Concern Over The Possibility Of The White Race Being 'wiped Out'?

probably nothing since the visitors were just that and not looking as if they were taking over Sevile.

It's a perfectly reasonable question for the politician to ask. I really dont think it will happen for the reasons SP says.

What annoys me is that these 'phobia' accusations are generally used to either shut down awkward debate or win compo.

I notice that the serial Mail bashers are out again, despite this being "reported" all over Europe. Quite right as well. There are elections due in Italy, perhaps some would rather bury such "News".

Togo, there are many Liberal Left ABers who would like to bury the News!

[anotheoldgit]

Well researched Togo, that sure makes the AB's Daily Wailers look rather silly, along with their constant racist and xenophobic accusations.

[Jackdaw33]

From what I have seen over the years the liberal left ABers are very much in the minority and long may it remain so.

[EDDIE51]

Few on AB will be old enough to remember The Mail and its unstinting support for Hitler and the 3rd Reich back in the 1930s,it was constantly urging the UK to form an alliance with Hitler and rule Europe together.
This is its most infamous headline

I would have thought it was the opposite.

[Togo]

A sort of "Minitrue" YMB. As predicted by Orwell. Elections due in Italy that may result in a swing to the right. No Government formed in Germany and possibly a return to the polls again there. Which will certainly bring a right wing swing. In the meanwhile the youth of Germany start to follow the Identitarian movement, and at home the luvvies still agitate for Britain to renege on out own vote that distances us from the madness. Whilst of course blaming the Mail for "causing" it.

[Togo]

Haha Eddie fails to tell you that Rothermere owned the Mail. Not so The Mirror who ran that article as its front page, whilst in the Mail 80 years ago it was a "feature article". The Mirror's sister paper, then known as the Sunday Pictorial, even ran pictures of uniformed blackshirts playing table tennis and enjoying a sing-song around a piano. Both titles also planned a beauty contest aimed at finding Britain's prettiest woman fascist. The year before 1933 The Express ran the headline "Judea declares war on Germany: Jews of all the world unite in action". This was about an alleged boycott of German goods in response to the increasingly anti Semitic activities of the new and exciting Nazis.

You wrote:

‘From a black person I would expect nothing different’. That seems an odd thing to write. It almost suggests that you think that all black people think the same. I’m sure you’ll agree that’s not true by any means.

Regarding your hypothetical opposite scenario. We already have the answer, because it’s already happened. Where white settlers and colonialists have been, the local culture doesn’t get wiped out, it exists alongside the foreign culture. This is what has happened all over India, Africa, the West Indies and the Far East. Culture cannot be ‘wiped out’. It’s ingrained into the local psyche.

//But then perhaps it would be better asking this question to a black person actually choosing to living in Africa along with it's ancient culture?//

Maybe...perhaps you need to establish whether the Answerbank is popular on the African continent. It’s not something that I can help with.

A fine example being Zimbawe.

Actually, now thinking about it, perhaps there are other less shining examples. Thinking about what happened with the Aborigines.

[EDDIE51]

Togo ,It WAS from the Daily Mail. Look at the link,it clearly displays the Daily Mail logo and the publication date. It is facsimile of the front page of that days 'Mail'.

[Togo]

Eddie.........just read what was written by myself..........notice the latter part?

And the N. American Indians..........and what did the Romans ever do for us?

14:55 was for sp. Apologies.

Totally agree with him, brave man ...

[Jackdaw33]

Be careful what you say, hereIam, lest you be branded a fascist, xenophobic, racist pig!

Dear me.
