Andy Doyle, comedian and founding signatory of DDU, argues that today’s so-called anti-racists are based on an illiberal notion masquerading as a liberal one:
The most damaging aspect of this mindset is that it renders impossible the task of rooting out racism. Falsely assuming that racism is everywhere, and insisting that people fundamentally opposed to discrimination are nonetheless complicit in white supremacy, is guaranteed to engender resentment and sow racial division. Moreover, it provides cover for genuine bigots who are able to claim a degree of support they simply do not have.
