To wonder how things will change

[britneyisfree]

Not a TAAT but thought triggered by it.

People were effectively being accused of just pretending they'd take people in to look good. And I thought, well what would would be the point, it's in real life that the pressure will come.

Flashbacks to those Thursday clap nights and how some streets had bands and stuff like that I'm wondering if I'm some areas a stronger sense of community and or peer pressure/ not wanting to appear selfish.

So there's instantly be communities of people over night that could support one another which initially I thought was positive. And felt bad that I don't have the space.
Anyway I then went on to read a few people mentioning Ukraine is very right wing and comments about racism came up.

I had no knowledge of this before however it's got me wondering if racism will increase as a result, in the areas where there are large proportions of new communities?

Not sure if I'm being unnecessarily anxious or if it's something that could happen?

In no way am I suggesting people shouldn't open their homes it's just something that popped into my head reading about people worried they'd have.

Reading back through this and I don't think I've made much sense. Oppps

I'm not sure that it will come to having Ukrainians in our own homes.
There are many empty properties that could easily be commandeered , through emergency legislation ( happened in WW2) that could be deployed ; those many, giant , empty oligarchical mansions , for example.

As to Ukrainians being racist, I wouldn't know . There may well be cultural differences in, say, attitudes to certain ideas, but that would apply to citizens of any other country.

@ButtockUp oh. I thought there had been a plea for people to open up there homes?

In any case it's the racism that worried me. I now understand that even in this time of war black students have always been treated badly there and told to go home even though they were invited/lured with promises of cheap fees!
