  I have this feeling the sign on the right in the thumbnail is missing the letter “i”

    I thought the same, but apparently it’s UK English meaning ‘for rent’

  The problem is real, but god damn this website is awful. Even with uBlock.

  To me this reads as classism rather than racism but they don’t want to open up that can of worms

  Any 1st/2nd generation immigrants are likely to be worse off, so show me Black, Romanian, Italian, Australian, Chinese data and I bet they’re all similar figures… Then compare upper class Black people to lower class White people and watch as the White people are treated overwhelmingly worse, not because of the colour of their skin, but because of how much money they have now and even how much they had growing up

  We’ve known this for years why is this news and who is surprised by this?
