Lady Susan Hussey quits over remarks to charity boss Ngozi Fulani

Normal would be to ignore the topic altogether, given that these people know who they are and where they are. Markle took offense which establishes the comments as being offensive. -

There have been ongoing stories in the MSM about entrenched racism in the palace for years. Nobody ignored anything. Does the British monarchy have a racism problem? The royals are once again battling serious allegations of racism inside palace walls, Questions of how robustly the palace confronts racism have swirled since Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, told Oprah Winfrey last year that someone in the family questioned her on the skin tone of her unborn baby. Britain’s Guardian newspaper unearthed documents, buried in the UK national archives, which revealed that the Queen’s courtiers had banned ethnic minority immigrants and foreigners from holding clerical positions at Buckingham Palace until at least the late 1960s. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/01/uk/royal-racism-row-analysis-intl-cmd/index.html -

Meanwhile, very little has changed. Republicans have long been accused of coded bigotry and nodding and winking to their base. There was an assumption of rules of political etiquette and taboos that could not be broken. Now, it seems, politics has entered a post-shame era where anything goes. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/oct/23/republican-party-hate-racism-antisemitism-trump -

A black British charity boss who was repeatedly asked where she was "really" from at a royal reception has told the BBC the encounter was "abuse". Ngozi Fulani was questioned about her background by Lady Susan Hussey, Prince William's godmother, at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday. The late Queen's lady-in-waiting has since resigned. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-63819482 -

“I want to see the royal household as a whole acknowledge that institutional racism is part of the culture, and I want to see them tackle that head on…,” Reid, leader of the Women’s Equality Party, told Sky News. “I think what’s needed is something bigger, something more substantive.” https://apnews.com/article/king-charles-iii-entertainment-boston-violence-b38a3a57692a79a6ed71b15ff1f03591?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=TopNews&utm_campaign=position_07 -

House Judiciary GOP finally deletes tweet praising Kanye West after he tells Alex Jones he likes Hitler After leaving it up for almost two months, the House Judiciary GOP's official Twitter account has finally deleted their infamous tweet that read, "Kanye. Elon. Trump." The tweet went up on Oct. 6, and soon afterwards, rapper Kanye West started giving interviews and making statements that are unquestionably antisemitic. But now that West has gone on Infowars and blatantly told host Alex Jones, "I like Hitler," the people behind the account have apparently decided that it was time to take it down. https://www.rawstory.com/kanye-alex-jones/

Herschel Walker hit with disturbing claims by yet another accuser In addition to that violent incident, Parsa also claims that Walker would use his diagnosed mental illness as a justification for his poor behavior. "He’s a pathological liar. “He knows how to manipulate his disease, in order to manipulate people, while at times being simultaneously completely out of control.” https://www.rawstory.com/herschel-walker-abuse/

Elon Musk says Twitter will offer 'amnesty' to suspended accounts

Left-Wing Voices Are Silenced on Twitter as Far-Right Trolls Advise Elon Musk Elon Musk appears to have outsourced decisions about who to ban from Twitter to the platform’s right-wing extremists. https://theintercept.com/2022/11/29/elon-musk-twitter-andy-ngo-antifascist/ -
Did some of our federal police conspire to overthrow the United States? Why didn’t the “dogs” of our federal police, investigative, and military agencies “bark” when they knew full well in advance that an armed mob was coming to the Capitol to try to overthrow our government, and that many within the mob were armed and willing to kill (and did) to try to accomplish their goal? Why, afterward, did the Secret Service and the Department of Defense wipe their phones so the data could never be retrieved? https://www.rawstory.com/us-capitol-police-2658808492/

She said her nationality was British. It wasn't anything else. You're doing what racists do. Racists claim that a person can't be British because they are black. -

You used the term in the same sentence as discussing her costume. There's no other context for using the term because this topic is not about blackface. -
