SoylentNews is people
SoylentNews
The past is prologue! What has been, will be again. Amor Fati!
Once again, aristarchus submissions are being suppressed! By this I mean, not rejected, but hidden, concealed, obscurated. These three submissions are listed as "accepted", but do not appear in the queue, or anywhere else.
US Army veteran among group of suspected neo-Nazis arrested by FBI on gun charges
White nationalist who spoke at Charlottesville arrested on fugitive warrant charges
3 Alleged Members Of Hate Group 'The Base' Arrested In Georgia
Yes, typical aristarchus submissions. Fake accepted just to mess with me? Or deep-sixed to keep coverage of alt-right terrorism off of SoylentNews? Possibly related to the recent threading bug TMB has discovered? Or another "Athanasius" scenario? QAnon, or Lizard People?
*****
Update: more rejected submissions, as the Hate goes down in Virginia.
Proud Boy "Tiny" Toese Pleads Guilty to 2018 Assault
And,
What is The Base? FBI arrest of alleged white supremacists puts focus on extremist group
And,
‘Emasculated’ Virginia gun nuts mocked for ‘purchasing toys, dressing up in costumes, and fantasizin (one of my personal favorites!)
And,
ALEX JONES CRUISES THROUGH STREETS IN INFOWARS 'BATTLE TANK' AS PROUD BOYS JOIN HIM AT VIRGINIA, the crazy does not get any more crazy than this, unless it is Texans in Congress.

New excuse for censorship on SoylentNews! Makes me feel so much better. Here it is:
Thank you for your submission. Unfortunately it does not meet the criteria spelled out in the submission guidelines, which can be found at https://soylentnews.org/faq.pl?op=editorial and has therefore been removed from the submissions queue. Please consider revising it based on the submission guidelines and resubmitting. Alternately you could consider posting it as a journal entry.
Yup, gonna revise this an resubmit! That'll work! Nothing like getting around censorship by doing exactly what the censors want! Hooboy! I feel a spate of submissions about alt-right Neo-nazi really stupid racists and Trump supporters coming on! Pray that the fetuses of Evangelical miscarry! Turn about is fair play. Oh, and TMB is behind on his payments.

There is racism in each and every community to some degree or other.
Any racism that exists in the UK would not disappear if we had agreed to stay in the EU. In the USA, the racism has been visible for many decades either against black people, native Americans, or currently also the alt-right and anti-fa. If France, there is still racism against Algerians, Muslims and other group who have settled here from outside France. There are examples also for Russia, the Middle East, and elsewhere.
Brexit hasn't been hijacked by the racist element in the UK, it has simply been publicised more because it sells newspapers, it is thought to be more 'newsworthy' than looking at the majority of people who live together without any friction whatsoever.
You are probably too young to know enough to make an intelligent assessment. There, now has my ad hom attack been any more useful to this discussion than your ad hom attack? No. Learn how to counter racism rather than simply blaming the world around you. You are part of that world - that is your responsibility. Now you can either face that challenge or cower in fear because of all the nasty racists that surround you. Don't fear different religions or beliefs. Don't worry about the colour of someone's skin which is dictated by their genes depending on where their ancestors originated on the globe. Don't separate different cultures simply because you do not understand them. And don't come on this site stirring up racism by trying to blame it for all the world's ills.
