A quiz for a country that loves a queue and hates a fuss.
Post it, share it, steal it
Laugh at the grifters, never at the people being sold to. Nobody is named. Every post has a copy button, the link fills itself in, and every fact opens on that fact when someone clicks it.
X / Bluesky. Pin it, with a screenshot of the stamped verdict.
We built a racism-o-meter. It goes to eleven (ten felt too tidy).
It's silly. It's also got facts, receipts and a card called "Follow the money" for anyone getting rich off your anger.

X / Bluesky / Threads. Seven posts.
1/ Someone, somewhere, is making money from you being furious about race. Not you. Not your mates. Someone with a merch store and a "membership" ๐งต
2/ So we made a quiz. Ten questions, a fact after every answer, and a racism-o-meter that goes up to eleven. Ten felt too tidy. ๐ซ
3/ It's got jokes, but it's also got the Stephen Lawrence inquiry, the Windrush scandal and the Equality Act. Gentle in tone, serious about the facts.
4/ It does NOT call you racist for wanting lower migration. That's policy, and reasonable people argue about it. It DOES say that being uncomfortable about neighbours because of their ethnicity is prejudice. Know the difference.
5/ Everyone gets the "Follow the money" card. 1) Who gets paid when I'm furious? 2) What happens to me if it goes wrong? 3) Would they still be rich if everyone calmed down?
6/ There's a long tradition of selling things from the back of a van. With a van, you at least get the toaster. ๐
7/ Free. Nothing stored. Takes two minutes. Send it to the relative who "isn't racist but": {{URL}}
Reply or quote-post bait.
"I'm not racist, but..."
Take the quiz. See what comes after the but. ๐ซ

VoteRace: the quiz where the racism-o-meter goes up to eleven. ๐ซ
We wanted to talk about race without a lecture. So we made a quiz with a few jokes in it and a fact after every answer: the Stephen Lawrence inquiry, the Windrush scandal, the Equality Act 2010, why "race" isn't biology.
Two things we're careful about:
โ Wanting lower migration is a policy view, not racism. We say so.
โ Being uncomfortable with neighbours of a different ethnicity IS prejudice. We say that too, kindly.
And the real target? The grifters. The people turning anger into subscriptions, merch and "memberships". Everyone gets a "Follow the money" card: who gets paid when you're furious?
It's free, it's private (nothing is stored) and it takes two minutes. Send it to someone you love who "isn't racist, but..."
