A reader comments on my Royal Gazette column today:
The only thing I disagree with is your last paragraph - /This decades old political strategy of racially dividing and conquering has run its course /- I don't think it has, I think it has only just begun. To believe that these incidents are simply outbreaks of bad behaviour, which condemnation will make the miscreants regret, is wishful thinking. Racial politics is our future."
It's a good point. I actually agree with this, racial politics will continue until the voters/community reject it. I've been quoted along those lines recently in some Gazette articles and RG Magazine.
What I should have said is that "This decades old political strategy of racially dividing and conquering should have run its course..."
