It’s actually about not feeling welcome in the countryside and how most rural areas are not accessible to most folk but whatever…

England is the motherland for White People. They invented the concept.

It’s actually about not feeling welcome in the countryside and how most rural areas are not accessible to most folk but whatever… It's either about that or about people not wanting to go to the countryside. I cant be arsed to read a Guardian article so let me ask: did they do a survey among urban people of colour and ask them if they want to spend time in the countryside? I'll bet you 50p that in typical Guardian style (unsubstantiated conclusion before fact) they did not.

It is a bit odd to see the Guardian turning on Stroud. The place is full of elderly hippies and anthroposophists, ridden with veganism and soft left politics.

Stop kidding yourself. That’s part of it (needed a bit of interpretation but well done) and that’s the part you dwell on. Oh well, the planet needs more heroic victims I guess.

England is the motherland for White People. They invented the concept. Did we? Are we the only white country in Europe? Are the know-it-all Yanks once again trying to fuck this board up?

Oh God, can't we keep the race bollocks to the yank board. It's a British newspaper talking about British countryside, but it doesn't become "race bollocks" until I talk about it. Is this guy complaining about the demographics of your rural areas shouted down for bringing up race? No, he isn't. So this continual concern of yours isn't genuine but just a tactic.

Oh God, can't we keep the race bollocks to the yank board. If it features predominantly in the media, it is part of the zeitgeist unfortunately. I sometimes listen to BBC News radio. I tell myself, if the story is about anything concerning representation then I’m turning it off, and a large amount if the time it is! No shit, the last time I turned it on about a week ago the first words I heard were ‘Asians are underrepresented on the screen…’ and I switched it off.

Just get sick of certain posters and the non stop race threads. Expect it on the crazy board, this one usually avoids the culture nonsense.
