        .@buffsoldier_96 worries that this conversation often devolves into declarations of ownership of history. "Black history is western history"

        Two audience members are shouting at each other. One asserting there is no need for her to feel white guilt because she has never oppressed anyone. The other saying "I'm not asking you to feel guilty. I'm asking you to stop doing it." "Hmmm.

        Interesting. The woman saying 'stop doing it" says she speaks English and is Christian because of colonialism. This is true but I am interested in how the Christianity works. She said "I am Christian" suggesting she is still a believer. This must cause cognitive dissonance.

        I'm sure the people of Vietnam are eager to abandon their cuisine in service of fixing history. Anyway, carry on

        An ironically appropriate topic to celebrate the anniversary of the Norman conquest of England. I wonder how the woke world of 1066 reacted?

        Strongs on that one. We have lots of people who read of their ipads the exact demands of decolonisation.
