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

      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.

    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.

    I see a lot of the word riot

    And a lack of the word pogrom

    Purposeful I assume for the media's part.

      It would have been much better to actually address the material conditions that led to this kid being radicalized

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

      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...

          This is assuming that they meaningfully oppose the chuds and aren't just pretending.

          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

              On reddit-logo , I saw people clutching their pearls at the chant and explaining that it is a terrorist rallying cry, and that even Wikipedia mentions the connection.

          That's absolutely a guy who would do a spinning whirly arm windmill thing directly into your face, knocking you over, then immediately help you back up and apologize. Met many such people. I would generally regard them as people not to be fucked with especially when they're large lads like that one. Look at his legs. My god. What a unit.

          TWO buildings housing asylum seekers have been torched so far, if they don't get attempted murder for this then the country is genuinely fucked

          And this is the 'better' government that liberals said we had to vote for in the UK waltuh seeing US libs do it again is making me feel insane, yasss vote in Klu Kop Kamala!!

    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.

        UK has the Territorial Army, which I’m told is like the National Guard or Army Reserve in the US.
