Stoking anti-muslim shit for decades and then turning around and blaming Corbyn for "antisemtism" because Wizard Book lady said so. FUCK TERF island.

Hm i wonder when will we hear calls from international-community-1international-community-2 to intervene to prevent the violence from becoming a bloodbath.

Imagine if JKKK Rowling chose today to walk outside in blackface (which you know she just wears around the house on Sundays for no particular reason), gets mistaken for a real POC by the rocks for brains rioters and just gets decked.

stalin shouldn't have stopped at berlin

I was just explaining this to my oldest kid yesterday. Stalin had too much humanity to get the job done. He wasn't capable of the cruelty the bourgeoisie deserved.

You really have to hand it to the UK government for having probably the worst possible messaging tactics on this.

Yes, the guy was not himself an immigrant. That was indeed misinformation. But to keep framing it like, "Ackshually finger-wag he was a true blooded Brit born to Rwandan immigrant parents nerd Checkmate misinformation bigots!!!" isn't the correct messaging strategy to use here.

The government/media seem to be entirely incapable of following that statement through to its conclusion in the minds of the anti-immigrant right. They will just take that to mean: "Well then obviously these immigrants are all incapable of assimilation into UK society, and they have to go regardless what generation migrant they are! frothingfash"

It would have been much better to actually address the material conditions that led to this kid being radicalized / falling through the cracks of the mental healthcare system / etc. It sounds like they have not ascertained the motive for the killings, so I'm making guesses, but you can take my meaning.

lenin-sure I'm sure they'll get right on that.

[-] catonkatonk@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

But also, what if he had been a Muslim immigrant? That obviously wouldn't justify anything that had happened. And so the race, religion and nationality of the attacker are entirely irrelevant.

I wonder why the government is having a difficult time signalling to its population that collective punishment is unacceptable...

Are there any anti-fascists fighting back against these evil shit heads?

[-] weeen@hexbear.net 59 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah, they outnumbered the 'pro-british' 'protestors', as the media calls them, in many places but the nazis (a guy just got arrested with a swaztika tat) have done insane damage, they burned down a library in Liverpool

The British state-run media organisation has been egregiously bad. Look at this shit. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cervv8rz8mzo

An anti-immigration protest began peacefully outside Bolton Town Hall earlier, but within half an hour, about 300 people, who mostly had their faces covered with black face masks or balaclavas, charged towards the building. They began shouting "Allahu Akbar" - a phrase meaning God is greatest - as they arrived at one side of the town hall, where a separate group had gathered waving England flags.

Meanwhile, here is footage of that event https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3QDnJeoYJM&t

[-] weeen@hexbear.net 32 points 1 month ago

Lmao yeah, I've seen muslims/asians be called 'mobs' for organising to protect themselves

And next we'll have 500 tweets from libs, OMG my asian neighbour just brought us food aww they're not all bad!! as if no modern kristallnacht had happened

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Lmao I bet the media will do more outrage over the God is Greatest chants over people being racially targeted even if they're not even from muslim majority countries.

Insane they're calling them "protestors" instead of what they are, fascist rioters.

Very same people who make up stories about "no-go zones" and roaming bands of zombie muslims eating human flesh.

Bloody Sunday?

[-] Des@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

part of me thinks this is one of those situations where an armed population would at least dissuade this kind of rampant impunity

try to pull a person out of a car. get a bullet to the dome.

at least the threat this may happen might make the rioters second guess

and since the police seem to be opting out and there's no national guard to speak of and we know how adverse to threats the western right is

like even a loosely cobbled together armed popular front militia would probalbly be enough to keep these shits from burning down buildings full of asylum seekers

yes i know the it's likely the full force of the state would be brought down on the people defending their city and populace but fuck sometimes i think i'd rather go out resisting with everything you got

sorry this shit makes me so mad i don't know what the solution is besides general class war

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Police aren't hitting the riots but they've already started raiding homes of participants. Most of these shits are going to end up locked up.

Issue is though that the prisons are full so I don't know how hard the courts will go.

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

They have an armed population in the US. The people most likely to be armed over there are the chuds. Guns has been used there in several far-right terrorist attacks and are routinely used to intimidate those targeted by the fascist.

I am not convinced that allowing random people to buy firearms reduces the likelihood of fascist terror. Where fascist thugs has successfully been chased out of towns and neighbours it has been as a result of organising rather than hardware, both broad big tent antifascist organising of the community and the formation of more dedicated antifascist community self-defense groups.
