Rich Arabs buying assets

Post by DrWindy »

You will have heard about rich Arabs buying soccer clubs and other sporting associations.

Well apparently one guy is now buying up fish and chips shops.

He’s called Sultan Vinegar.

It's not just racist. It's an example of white supremacy. Which is, like, a really bad racism.

They are leveraging their anglo-whiteness to deliberately misinterpret ethnic naming conventions for comedic effect. That can only come from a sense of superiority. I'd have thought that one or two of the contributors above, given their heartfelt expressions of concern for the plight of arabs on a certain other thread, would be particularly aware of this.
