When the British Empire colonised my country, Malaysia (back then it was called Tanah Melayu)..

A lot can change in even one generation.

I was looking at the figures for crimes committed by race, purely because I was sick to death of accusations that immigrants of different races were more likely to commit crimes. Well it turns out that Muslims and most other races were Less likely to commit crimes (by arrest data) White people had a higher arrest % for every 1000 people. It's not a massive amount higher, but it only shows that races are integrated well enough that crime is pretty much the same, unless you're Chinese which is considerably lower than any. We need to drop the whole "people are not integrating and it's causing higher crime" hyperbole.

Firstly, the horse has bolted. If Britain colonised a third of the world and steals its resources (including people) and radically impoverishes the colonised countries, then its brutalised and impoverished victims will be forced to find a better life, especially when British culture is imposed on them, what do you expect was going to happen. It’s especially ironic because the richer, whiter countries are not breeding and their populations are shrinking. Immigration is absolutely necessary to replace those declining demographic categories. Capitalism needs workers and consumers. Yes, let’s have the debate about immigration, but make it honest. Stop leaving out gigantic chunks of the story in order to divide and conquer.

Can I make a constructive point on terminology? British people and white people are not synonyms. I, as an Irish person, recognise all the issues - I'm old enough to remember when all Irish people were suspect when the IRA bombed somewhere, played out very spectacularly with the Birmingham 6 and Guilford 4 - it was perfectly acceptable to arrest the wrong Irish people, because we all were guilty. As an Irish person in Britain, somewhere my great-grandfather and his father were born (they moved to the Ireland of their ancestors) and am very aware that the inclusion we've experienced (not perfect by any means) since the mid-90s could change again as it did so many times through the history of these islands.

[@cactustactics]

"White" is a shifting concept anyway, used to define the people included in the dominant in-group and exclude others, and that group changes over time as the idea of Us and Them changes. Like they say, race is a social construct! It's not some fundamental truth, it's just something that exists in attitudes and power dynamics So yeah, Irish people have historically been othered and excluded (even worse the further back you go, and some US states literally called Irish people "coloured"), you get shifting definitions of which Europeans count, and people will twist and turn to justify it with talk about "shared culture" and nebulous "values" that are just as quickly thrown in the bin when those people fall out of favour. And that shift can literally happen within a single sentence, if there's a more important group to other - weird attitudes about Eastern Europeans conveniently melting away the moment there's a brown person in the mix etc. And if that scapegoat disappears, the "white/non-white" attitude gets directed back at another target, because that's what it's there for
