the child here is just feeding the line when is paid to do claiming that it started with Tony Blair

not only is the term genetics sinister and he clearly can't or won't back up what he means



Also seems that Blair was PM when the Romans came, the Anglo - Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Poland and the Caribbean and Commonwealth Countries came which surprised me as I thought I remembered him being elected and really lucky that all those people came pre-packed with English genes. Guess we are just lucky like that.

Does he not know we're all genetically derived from Africa?

We're also all genetically derived from ameobas. Not the greatest argument.

Oh and after watching that video, the kid was right in what he said and the other guy was yet another boring "you're secretly raaaaaaaacist" type that basically everybody on the planet has had enough of their intellectual dishonesty.

He said that immigration over the past 2000 from various regimes has created the cultural and genetic makeup of this country. That is factually, inarguably 100% objectively a true statement. To believe otherwise is to believe that either different populations didn't have different genetics, and I'll point you to any high school biology class if you believe this, or that the peoples who invaded or immigrated had zero sex or assimilation in the country to which I'd point you to any possible musuem or history book. What is it you people think places like 23 and Me do (spart from scam, obviously)? What do you think epigenetics are?

The idea that the UK was a mishmash of cultural and genetic populations over the 2000 years is not just a factual statement but used to be somewhat a source of fun. But this guy heard the word "genetic" so immediately decided to put words in the kids mouth and of course because social media has zero critical thinking skills or rationality about "the other team" and are desperate to constantly hit these irrelevant and tedious Gotchas then of course we've now got people being implied to be a racist for using the word "genetic"
 
God I hate GB News so much that i'm going to watch it every single day, then come onto Bluemoon to tell others exactly what they're discussing and to avoid watching it to stop the spread of their disinformation!

That'll stop 'em!
 
Zero critical thinking skills?

Sort of ironic to say this and then take the words used by a dog whistling member of the intellectual far-right at face value.

Perhaps check out the guy beyond the clip?

He said genetic because he meant genetic. Whether he is Oswald Mosley's spiritual bastard and believes it all or is just dogwhistling as a grift is yet to be determined.

What the guy said was undeniably supported by remaining in the EU, which I’d be absolutely amazed if he voted for. On that basis, he’s contributed to the situation he is so opposed to.

I'm not making any judgement on the guy. I don't watch GB News and have no idea who he is. I'm just pointing out that the thing he's getting pulled up for saying is indisputably and objectively a 100% correct thing to say. Not what he "secretly meant" by it or was "implying" or a million other subjective things that people paper their own bias over, but the actual words that he literally said.
