Addendum instead of addressing the substance of discriminatory practices i.e. #OtheringDiscriminationRacism, Brown offers up his #ReasoningFallacyFalseEquivalence #ReasoningFallacyStrawman about the fiction of 'reverse racism'. In doing so, this #NarrativeTruthHypothetical assumes the logic of #PleaAWorldOfSimpleStableFixedOperations i.e. a #TheoryCulturalEssentialism.ist position. It assumes that language is not the product of culture - and so, is #NarrativeTruthImmutable and not #TheoryLinguisticsMultivocal. #TheorySociologySocialInertia Interestingly, it also provides an argument for #TheorySociologyIntersectionality (that discrimination is relational).

"SOME FACTS about slavery the BLM crowd don't want you to know Historian Alan W. Fisher has stated that two million white Russians, Ukrainians, and Poles were captured and sold into slavery by Muslims between 1468 and 1694. Ottoman capital of Istanbul imported as many as 2.5 million slaves from Christian Europe and parts of the Muslim and Christian Caucasus between 1450 and 1700 Muslim slave traders trafficked 17 MILLION slaves along the Middle East, Indian Ocean and North Africa. Compare that to the FIFTEEN MILLION slaves who arrived in the Americas Some 5000 Ethiopian slaves passed through just ONE port (daily) on their way to Arabia. In India millions of slaves were taken after many wars and enslaved The first legal slave owner in American history was a black tobacco farmer name Anthony Johnson. North Carolina's largest slave holder in 1860 was a black plantation owner named William Ellison. American Indians owned thousands of black slaves. In 1830 there were 3,775 free black people who owned 12,740 black slaves. Many black slaves were allowed to hold jobs, own businesses, and own real estate. Brutal black-on-black slavery was common in Africa for thousands of years. Most slaves brought to America from Africa were purchased from black slave owners. Slavery was common for thousands of years.

From the 1960s-90s Johnson was predominantly known among academics who studied slavery, but interest in his (misrepresented) life has recently gained traction with the advent of digital sharing, discussion sites, and public forums. For instance, as of July 12, 2019 Johnson's Wikipedia page claims he was a 'colonist' sold by 'Arab slave traders,' though there is no citation for the latter claim, nor is it supported by historians. It was likely added by a user who hoped to redirect blame from the Atlantic Slave Trade toward the 'Arab Slave Trade,' a popular talking point among right-wing commentators. In his podcast disputing reparations for slavery, conservative pundit Michael Knowles reiterated this myth about Johnson without reviewing the available literature. Such historical distortions seek to minimize Europe's culpability in expanding African slavery and discredit the system's intergenerational impact upon African Americans." https://www.aaihs.org/the-curious-history-of-anthony-johnson-from-captive-african-to-right-wing-talking-point/ #IRLHistoricalFigureAnthonyJohnson ^[Wikipedia] #ToponymAmericaNorthUSVirginia #MetaphorPeriodization17thCentury #IdentityArab #BrandTheDailyWirePolemicistMichaelKnowles #MetaphorWarfareUnderAttackBlameAvoidance #PhenomnResponsibilityCulpability

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Biden, who is a mere symptom of what ails America.

Het heeft weinig zin om iets wat in grote delen van de wereld eeuwenlang de normaalste zaak van de wereld was als zodanig te benoemen. Het leed van de totslaafgemaakten was verschrikkelijk, maar was daarmee nog niet fout. Althans, niet door de ogen van destijds. Het besef dat slavernij onacceptabel en on-menselijk is, dateert pas vanaf het einde van de iade eeuw.Toen ontstond het idee dat mensen gelijk zijn én de behoefte om slaver-nij te rechtvaardigen.

When a symbol is so widely recognised, but has a malleable meaning and definition, scepticism abounds. ... 'The social contract's broken,' Joseph Moulton, the boyish-looking organiser behind Flag Force UK, told GB News. Wearing a crisp white shirt and gold cross pendant, he highlighted the gulf between the 'people [who]... want a cause' and 'completely out of touch councils'.

#NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimesNicolaKelly and #NewspaperUKBrdshtBylineTimesOllyHaynes ^[Muckrack] "The 'Raise the Colours' flag-raising campaign, which claims to be a 'grassroots' campaign for 'unity' and has drawn the support of mainstream political parties and widespread coverage in the British media, has pivoted to stabbing through dinghies and harassing and racially abusing migrants and aid workers in the camps of Northern France ... UKIP leader Nick Tenconi has also been seen in the camps targeting migrants. In one video, Tenconi is seen proclaiming: 'Northern France is now British territory!' Approaching a group in Calais, he shouted: 'You are not welcome in Britain', and asked if they were 'planning to come to Britain illegally.' Individuals acting alone have also been seen in the camps and on the beaches of northern France, including activists with large followings such as 'Ross the Don'. Charity workers say that the number of British far right groups attempting to harass and intimidate migrants and aid workers has increased since the signing of the UK-France 'one in, one out' deal." https://bylinetimes.com/2025/12/18/raise-the-colours-flags-campaign-nigel-farage-migrants-aid-workers-on-french-beaches/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJw0CuQc3Kg #OrgClassifPPUKIndependencePartyUKIPNickTenconi #OrgSyndicateAccordGrassrootsMovement #BeliefTheismChristianityForgivenessMercy #IRLPrivateCitizenRossChildsAKARossTheDon ^{[forum] [tweet]} #BeliefTheismChristianityCrucifix #MetaphorWarfareBattleCapitulateSurrender ^[tweet]

#ToponymEuropeNetherlands #PhenomnWhitePrivilege http://www.veltmaete.nl/white/ Historical images of #PowerControlExploitationChildLabour seemingly being used as #ReasoningFallacyStrawman that exploitation is not directly correlated with race (racial discrimination) - presumably offering up the explanation that such situations are solely the consequence of a lack-of-opportunity, and certainly not discrimination. The argument seeks to shift focus back onto the issue of #IdentityClassBlueCollar #IdentityWhite. This type of argument follows the logic that #OtheringDiscriminationRacism isn't an issue because people of all races are able to be discriminated against (and so discrimination against black people is simply one example of many, rather than a category of itself - and so deserves no special treatment). This image (from the above collection) seems to typify this thesis: ^[jpg] (which strongly implies that #IdentityIndigenousBlackPeopleOfColourBIPOC are being exploited by white people) which is contrasted with this image: ^[jpg] (which because it includes a white boy shining shoes - that was cropped out of the first image - strongly implies that race isn't the determining issue).

collage conflates two separate events in an effort to express a #ReasoningFallacyStrawman critcal of #PhenomnProtestDemonstration

the collection of images conflate violence and anarchy with legitimate #PhenomnProtestDemonstration. They serve to incite #TheoryAffectiveResponsePanic through the use of a #ReasoningFallacyStrawman. Those most susceptible are likely those invested in #PoliticsStatusQuo and who see #CauseActivismSocial and the Right To Protest as a #MetaphorThreatIdeological to the sanctity of their #PleaLawAndOrder #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTraditionValues. The imagery is a #CharacterisationOversimplification / #ReasoningFallacyFalseEquivalence, most likely attractive to those who recognise the portrayal in terms of a #ReasoningFallacyConfirmationBias. The images all appear to show #ToponymEuropeUKEnglandSouthWestEnglandBristol. On the left are images of #PhenomnStatueToppling of slave trader #IRLHistoricalFigureEdwardColston / #PowerControlChattelSlavery from June 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-52955868 The protest was in response to and international outrage about the brutal murder of #IRLDeceasedGeorgeFloyd. On the right are images from the #LiteralKillTheBillProtest ^[Wikipedia] showing violence that erupted between protesters and police in March 2021 https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/mar/26/hundreds-sit-down-outside-bristol-police-station-in-kill-the-bill-protest where the Government is seeking to extend their powers under the #LegislationUK2021PoliceCrimeSentencingAndCourtsBill ^[Government]

"His actual words were: The British Empire was far worse than the Nazis. They lasted longer and killed many more people. The trouble for this 'professor' is that, grammatically speaking, 'they' (being plural) has to refer to a plural noun and the only one in the first sentence is 'Nazis', So, what he actually said, as opposed to what he meant to say, was that the Nazis killed 'many more people' (than those killed during the course of the Empire). And I'd agree with that. If a white professor had made this wild claim against a non-white country, the politically correct hate-mob on Twitter, and other woke warriors, would probably have denounced it as racist. Stirring up hate & making basic mistakes in English. Not doing too well, 'Professor'." #ToponymEmpireBritish #PoliticallyCorrectPC #OtheringOutGroupGangMob #TauntWokeWarrior

Addendum this argument functions as a #ReasoningFallacyStrawman through skirting the central claim of the argument (about the realities of The British Empire) and instead seeking to criticise the grammatical correctness of Andrews' point. The mention of 'professor' in the response is logically an attack on Andrews' status (as a senior, university academic i.e. #OtheringElitesLiberalCulturalEducated) or perhaps more generally an attack on the status of #EDUUKBirminghamCityUniversityBCU where he is Professor of #LiteralFieldBlackStudies) or perhaps in a more coded way, through being #BehaviourCondescending i.e. seeking to diminish him as covert #OtheringDiscriminationRacism. Regardless, it's difficult to get past the fact the comment reads like simple #CharacterisationPedantry

Addendum #ReasoningFallacyStrawman used to justify a social conservative perspective held by the poster; in this case, a criticism of socially progressive i.e. enlightened/aware perspectives. This is commonly characterised pejoratively as being 'woke'. The comments appears to be wrapped up in a general sense of frustration of receiving criticism for believing in outmoded ideas/beliefs i.e. being a member of an 'out-group'.

Revengeful, bloodthirsty, cunning, treacherous, and savage, Nat was the ravager of white women who defied all the rules of plantation society.

Addendum points to an #OtheringHateAntisemitism #OtheringHateAntisemiticCanard (conspiracy theory) about some sort of overarching goal of world domination mounted by #IdentityJewish people (in this case, domination of mainstream media). The canard is interesting in the way that it seeks to frame such supposed malevolent intent as a form of 'mind-control' (manipulation) where in their nativity, and having gone against sort of 'predefined natural, social order', such supposed 'white liberals' have received their ultimate punishment i.e. 'they deserve what's coming to them!'. The image collage functions as a #PhenomnCautionaryTale for others who might stray from such a 'natural order' (especially, those conservatives who are more excepting of liberal values). The reality of course, is that a random (and misrepresentative sample) of domestic violence cases has been amassed in such a way that it feels plausible, when it is in fact a non sequitur http://folksonomy.simonperkins.co.uk/?permalink=3548 where just because some black men have inflicted violence on some white people - there is a #ReasoningFallacyFormalNonSequitur #ReasoningFallacyStrawman that black men are innately dangerous (or that all mixed-race #MetaphorPurityRacialWhiteWomenAndBlackMen relationships must inevitably end in disaster - because doing so breaks with natural laws and contravenes #MetaphorSpatialHierarchyStratificationRacial). Note that I assume that such a 'natural order' is religiously defined e.g. some sort of perversion of (Old Testament) Christian belief i.e. #TheoryExnominationChristianity. There is also an assumption that 'liberals' are easily fooled because of their over willingness to accept difference and to challenge established tradition i.e. break natural rules. #OtheringDiscriminationRacism
