You could call it a 'mask off' moment, although VFF have never been keen on masks.

It boggles me how NZ, Australian, US whites etc can complain about a "great replacement".

My brothers in Christ, to the original land owners, YOU were the replacement.

What does an ordinary person do to combat this?

You can't debate in good faith: they're not operating in good faith.

You can't reason them out of a position they've not reasoned themselves into.

I can teach my own children critical thinking, but that's only a couple of people, there's a very large number of people out there who soak this stuff up uncritically.

What can we do?

The only thing an ordinary person can do is to speak up when they see it. Why is this being reported on a blog instead of the mainstream media? It's because not enough of us spoke out about it and spread the word that it's happening.

This is the dumbest shit I've ever heard.

"They are coming to replace my favourite flavour" says racist Karen, standing in front of the vanilla ice cream but looking at other flavours around it.
