Unity? Looks like all the performers are black--they must mean unity of blacks against Whites. As a blue-eyed White guy with an Asian wife (Asians another favorite target of blacks) I wouldn't go near that place. Under the question about how they are keeping attendees safe--it is all about safety from the Wuhan Virus--nothing about safety from all those blacks. And "fully vaccinated" people are still required to wear masks and "socially distance"--some "vaccine" where authorities are convinced "vaccinated" people must still be able to get infected and transmit the virus. Finally, isn't having black singers sing opera--the art form of European White people "cultural appropriation." I guess "cultural appropriation" only goes one way. However, as a White person, I don't mind if other races want to perform our music, take advantage of White inventions and discoveries, wear our kind of clothes, live in our kind of houses, etc.--but you non-whites could thank White civilization for all the things it has given other races all over the world--instead of teaching people to hate us for all the things which make your life better than living in a mud hut.
ReplyDeleteIf they want unity stop shooting one another.
