Fear grips UK's Muslim communities as far-right riots spread nationwide

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

Genuine hell portal

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

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.

I see a lot of the word riot

And a lack of the word pogrom

Purposeful I assume for the media's part.

"Pogrom" is when Palestinians do it

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.

won't happen, the black mold on her walls told her to focus on women's boxing this week
- Wonder if Black Mold Frost is coming for her?
- Blackmoldface

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.

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...
- Yeah, exactly. They're letting racist chuds control the entire discourse/narrative, so they are stuck playing defense. Their only rhetorical tools are deflecting and deboonking. It's a failing strategy. It's incredible libs have not learned this by now.

I'm sure they'll get right on that.
Race riot is good for the ruling class.

I'm not joking when I say shrill em all and take their land

no more half measures walter

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

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 'pro-british' 'protestors', as the media calls them
- Insane they're calling them "protestors" instead of what they are, fascist rioters.
- my god the big antifa guy in the center left is the most hardcore show guy that's ever hardcored.
  
  the shirt, the shoes, the shorts, the hat. can't make out the band name
  
  skinny nazi doesn't know he's about to get fucking wrecked
- A lot of why's to ask but why a library?

https://x.com/NotSch0151/status/1820170809312198716 england is wonderful under kid starver's labour😍

here they've blocked exits of a hotel holding asylum seekers before setting it on fire

edit: really depressing video https://x.com/TheBluSocialist/status/1820131223798464767
- V for Vendetta mask
  
  These dorkass fucking losers I swear to god
- Jesus Christ, was anyone in the building? Did they get anyone out if they were?
- Odessa all over again
- they just tried to burn alive an entire building full of innocent people. Life in prison should be the bare minimum penalty.
https://x.com/KittieHill/status/1820112900855345541 and here they're asking people in cars if they're 'white english', if they're not then they block the car, asian taxi drivers have been pulled out of their cars edit:https://x.com/tedgbooth/status/1820138458737766888 news calling them 'pro-british' protestors vs the 'counter-protestors' (antifascists) https://x.com/SeabrookClimate/status/1820177097823813838 Sky news sending a black reporter to the scene for some reason.. https://x.com/FourierCharles/status/1819785262039204105 A black man being ganged up on in Piccadilly Gardens, kicked in the head https://x.com/GarakRobinson/status/1820155842865295782 Breaking into hotel where asylum seekers are staying, CAN'T EVEN SEE POLICE in the video, news calls them 'illegal immigrants'

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

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.
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.
- Yep, especially taking Britain as an example - before the war with Nazi Germany, the BUF was driven out by the anti-fascist communities organizing around disrupting their marches.
  
  And the same as today, the fascists of back then always went " :smuglord: these people are taking away our rights to speech" everytime the community fought against them.
You guys don't have a national guard for this shit? The US would've rolled police tanks in on the 3rd hour
- the UK has armed and extremely kitted out police, they just reserve disproportionate responses for people with legitimate grievances lol. US pigs also roll over for rightwing thugs
- the US literally bombed black towns, you live in fantasyland
- i dunno not from there im assuming the UK doesn't?
- UK has the Territorial Army, which I’m told is like the National Guard or Army Reserve in the US.
