| There is, however, a whole lot that says a lot about the character of DHH in it, such as by repeating rhetoric of the UK's racist far-right. |

Because the link he posted shows that the third of London he calls Native British is just White British. Do you think non-white can’t be native British. Is Idris Elba not native British? After hie many generations are you native British or is it impossible if you are not white? This isn’t about mass immigration, it’s just about immigration as such. That’s far-right. | | |

| ▲ | madeofpalk 7 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | DHH has not spoken about the problems caused by mass migration. Just lamenting the fact that a country is apparently less white than it used to be. He also doesn't live here. What does he know about London? | | | |

| The question was "Why was "platforming" DHH bad?". Some people disagree with the views represented in that linked blog post, and do not wish to sponsor events that showcase him. Personally, I think DHH is a troll and would never be interested in sponsoring, or attending, an event that involved him. |
