Where’s the conflict (no question mark because that’s a rhetorical question). When a ?mark is used that’s a question, soliciting an answer in this case about a third party. You can define yourself what you want: loving your flags and all!

Yes: and ‘small’ matter of an English born Saint & Martyr: Patrick being shared by wonderful nations #Nigeria and #Ireland - but then #Reform’s odd take on #ChristianNationalism doesn’t recognise the beauty of community -being instead rooted in a #Divide&Rule idolatry of their #FatherofLies

Article in newspaper about Lewes in Sussex and traditional annual bonfires on 5 November.  Alludes to those who ‘celebrate’ Guy Fawkes night burning effigies of contemporary people and occasionally historic figures.

Don’t delude yourself: “arguing” -why when it’s obvious only someone wanting to stir division & hatred ignorantly conflates a bankrupt & blasphemous ideology of Zionism with being #Jewish or of #Semitic heritage (which by the way I’m not). But that’s going to be lost on you!

It’s you who sadly conflates the blasphemy that is ‘Zionism’ with ethnicity, faith & shows yourself to be an enemy of our shared humanity. Beyond being a child of G-d, believing all created equally-the #Nordic #African #Ashkenazi DNA -that flows in me -means I don’t do Hate of self or others.

Disagree on #RootCause -let’s instead talk multi-factorial-but also remember Zionism had its consolidated roots in its first congress 1897 -but has been borrowing #Nazi lessons from 1930/40’s on everything from ghettos to exploding pagers that also indiscriminately maim & kill innocent civilians

Wild that I had to read a book about the occultist sex magician who founded NASA’s JPL (Jack Parsons) to learn about Paschal Beverly Randolph! (And I consider myself pretty well versed in Black history.)
Wikipedia entry

Paschal Beverly Randolph (October 8, 1825 – July 29, 1875) was an African-American medical doctor, occultist, spiritualist, trance medium, and writer. According to A. E. Waite, he established the earliest known Rosicrucian order in the United States. He may have also been the first to introduce the principles of erotic alchemy to North America.

Since you ask the question? #Black isn’t a nationality, ethnicity, race (a social construct) or genome-it’s a state of being: “half-Black”-not a thing. I thought you Americans pioneered one-drop rule. In any case less of the “b” -it’s not an adjective either: Black -you might want to read SteveBiko
