And a little bit of fascism by its author: https://world.hey.com/dhh/as-i-remember-london-e7d38e64 https://world.hey.com/dhh/as-i-remember-london-e7d38e64 He says let's separate software from politics. Yeah to hide his creepy racist agenda.

I disagree with your read of that blog post. In fact, in various parts of the text, DHH is actually trying to distinguish between a "simple" view that it's a "far right" political agenda, and instead the fact that people feel loss of identity, and lack of security. I don't know enough about DHH to state for sure that he is, or he is not, a right wing or fascist supporter, but in my view that blog post isn't proof of that. I've read it and found it to be an attempt at reframing the problem with a fresh view.

  Yeah, to solve lack of identity, he blames non natives. It's not a reading, you can find it on every history book

    Incorrect. He doesn't blame non-natives. He blames native politicians for allowing incompatible (sic!) non natives in, in way too large numbers. He tells about the problem, the cause of it, and describes how there has been an increased awareness of the problem in many countries and how the political winds changed.

      Ah, yeah, sorry, the problem is not about rats, it's the people letting them in. Oh, how racists can decoy. The people he supports are for remigration, which is another way to say deportation. And btw, wasn't he a migrant in the US he loves?

        Who is at fault for an infestation of rats in NY? Rats or the environment (trash system)? And what is the best way to solve it - try to change rats (read: change people's individual culture, which might be fine by itself somehere else, but is problematic in NY) or to change the environment (trash collection)? Rats do what they do, nobody is blaming them per se. They are just not welcome in places they are a nuisance.

        You got the perfect metaphore. To avoid rats, you don't kill them or set traps, you do trash collection, so you make a friendly environment for clean animals and not for those which bring plague. You can do the same: have integration courses, make VISAs readily available for everyone no question asked, put language courses in place and make everyone in condition to have a job and contribute to society. The United States is a country made of migrants. Almost no one is a "native american" there. Wasn't that the most powerful country in the world, up to 10 years ago? So, "native Britons" is a sentence that makes no sense, and it's racist.
