Yesterday’s shameful scenes……

Some of what I’ve seen from yesterday was pure mindless stupidity, attacking police, shops and causing vandalism isn’t the way to go to get your voice heard…….the papers are awash today with ‘far right’ mobs etc……..why’s there been no mention or air time of immigrants/asian gangs etc walking the streets carrying knife’s, bats and machettes?

 

Perhaps because the majority of the second problem exists only in the first groups heads.

 

Eh……..how do photos and videos equate to ‘existing in the first groups heads’
2 wrongs don’t make a right……..that’s what my mum always told me!

 

Wasn’t the first video, allegedly showing a foreigner with a machete, debunked as actually showing a “patriot” with a machete. Pretty sure they were arrested.

 

And if two wrongs don’t make a right, why the **** are these people going out to cause bother?

 

Like I put in my post ‘mindless stupidity’…….acts of whatever criminality to force there voive won’t work but why won’t the media report on the carrying of weapons?

 

If the media hasn’t reported on it, how do you know people were? I haven’t seen any actual footage showing anyone doing anything wrong except the people in the mob. Is it because the media isn’t reporting it, or it isn’t happening?

 

Or is it because you’d rather not chose to see there’s 2 sides too?

 

I can't even. The only sources claiming this and posting blurry videos and images of this is Yaxley and his cronies.

As I've said multiple times.. we live in a world where every single person has a video camera. Why is there endless footage from multiple angles of the right wing violence and only the odd blurry still and video of the supposed violence from people of colour.

 

.

 

The first video is of a party, probably Yemeni, and the ‘weapons’ you’re getting so excited about are probably ceremonial daggers. Different religion but not dissimilar in significance to the Kirpan that some Sikhs wear. Which is a fairly simple explanation as to why that video isn’t on the news and videos of fat bald wank3rs setting fire to high streets are.

 

This is beyond stupid. Do you ever stop for a second to check your source?

It's like critical thinking is beyond you.

 

Do you think Daily Mail wouldn’t love to plaster these pictures all over their paper if there were actual pictures of it?

 

"British patriots want to enter hotels in Bristol hosting fake asylum seekers with British taxpayers' money. Patience seems to be running out."

"British patriots want to enter hotels hosting fake asylum seekers with British taxpayers' money."

"England belongs to English patriots."

The above are the first 3 commentaries on his source page showing footage of the racist knuckle draggers. You'd only find far-right supporting Twitter sources like this if you were searching for them, and it takes literally 30 seconds on there to realise what their agenda is.

Presumably all perfectly fine in the eyes of the OP, if this is the source he wants to choose for his 'news'. Pretty sure most people would have tagged it as a far-right fanboy page and moved on within a few seconds, rather than trying to amplify it as a reliable source of information.

 

Also the first one of these videos comes with a warning saying this video is taken out of context.
Nice to see you’ve liked them both tho.

Ah RadioGenoa. The voice of the alt right. Promoting far right as the only answer to Europe's problems.

Literally proving my point.

 

Sharing a link of a video that has a community note on is truly, truly incredible.

 

Sharing this sort of material is a great way to out yourself as a racist.

Also being thick enough to believe it is slightly terrifying.
