I'm not seeing the value-add of BBC having Stephen Sackur interview Peterson.

Some of the replies on the Ralph thread indicate that the critics of Jeong don't have a problem with racism (or at least offensive words) per se.

True. But it's not possible to be for open borders without being out of your fucking mind.
