Wiley has just committed career suicide on twitter with a hateful anti semitic rant. Pure bile. Couldn’t happen to a nice guy.
Global BLM/Anti-racism chat...
Wiley’s an awful individual.
Jo?
Yep, went radio rental.
And then displays his complete ignorance by posting Billie Holiday Strange Fruit which it transpires is written by a Jewish man. Thick as mince
He’s still going. Thought it must be some sort of chemically assisted breakdown yesterday but he’s still going for it now.
Phil-McRackin it’s a complete clusterfuck.
Some choice tweets:
I really like how he just has to make it super clear that he “don’t like Hitler”.
I think it’s safe to say that Wiley’s had an absolute reg.

Meanwhile, ZDF, the second largest German state TV channel (which everyone here has to pay a licence fee to fund, even if you don’t own a TV), has posted on its Instagram page that:
“there is no racism against Whites”.
Who is Wiley anyway? Never heard of him
hugopal It’s a bit harsh, he’s never met the fella.
hugopal There isn’t really though, is there?
Not forgetting the Cambridge professor Gopal’s tweets, etc.
That’s before one even gets in to the debate about whether anti-semitism (such as Wiley’s above) should be deemed a type of racism or not.
Anyway, the ZDF tweet claims that any instances of what would be rightly defined as ‘racism’ can actually only be called ‘discrimination’ if it’s against a white person, i.e. not only does it not exist, but it’s impossible.
Sounds a complete bellend.
Correct.
His music is dreadful too.
Saying that it’s impossible to be racist against white people is borne by the notion that it’s impossible to hate white people.
So he’s saying it’s possible to hate all people apart from whites, because they’re not hate-worthy.
Racist logic imo.
As for Jo Wiley, I truly cannot believe she’s thrown away her legacy like this, very sad to see. Clearly we all have good days and bad days with these unprecedented times but someone needs to throw an arm around Jo and help her get better.
Has any white person on this board been subjected to racism?
