Terf Islanders are tiiiiiiired
once again fearmongering leads the sheltered white world to believe that anything that resembles the "enemy" is actually the enemy.
a 6-year-old boy and his mother were stabbed in Illinois, leaving his mother in the hospital and the boy dead. Just because our media has to fearmonger about the scary brown people.
I think that attack is worse than the Islamophobia I saw after 9/11, I don't remember anyone getting killed.
There was definitely several even in the immeadiate aftermath sadly. Mostly convenience store workers, Sikhs mistaken for Muslims (racists are evil, but not smart), and I think a young woman was stabbed getting off the metro/light rail somewhere.
Edit: this article rounds up some of the murders and serious hate crimes
Adults were murdered for either being or looking Muslim but no children as far as I remember
This definitely seems worse or maybe more concentrated would be a better word for it, people in general are a bit less Islamophobic than post 9/11 but those who support the genocide are way more deranged to make up for it
Something like that, it's hard to tell
I think that this also partially reflects a change in how media worked 20+ years ago and today.
The way most people were exposed to current events 20+ years ago was through a small handful of television news outlets, and if you were trying to manufacture consent for something and drum up some pro-war rhetoric you could get large portions of the country on the same page through the relatively small number of media sources that covered ~90% of America's exposure to the news.
Now in the social media era the ways in which people consume news/current events is much more splintered and fractured. Which makes it harder to get everyone marching to the beat of the same drum, but it also means you can create content specifically tailored to inflame the worst impulses of whichever micro-demographic you're trying to target without having to worry about your messaging needing to have mass appeal because you're not trying to make sure that your broadcast network keeps its audience.
Sikhs were getting murdered because Islamophobes think brown man with turban = Muslim. It was way worse in the immediate aftermath.
The UK colonized Palestine for a while. Maybe it's about time for the inverse.
The Palestinian Mandate of Britain will be instituted. And it will remain until the British are sufficiently civilized to the point they can finally handle self-rule.

Revolutionary Brits repelling their colonizers by speaking British at them.
"Oy yoo lot, wot or yoo dooin rawnd 'ere den? Don' muck abawt, cleer off den!"
No, no, the UK belongs to Romans. Romans were there around 2000 years ago, that gives them an absolute claim to the place, and those living there now will just have to go somewhere else.
Return South Wales to the Silures people!
Pictish landback for Scotland!
Deport the English to Saxony!
Oh we don't go to the mall anymore. That cinnabon line in the food court is just begging to get blown up by Al-Qaeda
When they said "from the river to the sea" i didnt know they meant the North Sea but I'm not complaining
Breezewood PA's Dairy Queen invaded by an army of Hamas technicals.
After Storming the Winter Palace except they're marveling at how incredibly soulless and shitty everything is
Next day on Hexbear: "Mayo-american mistakes Mexican paraglider for Palestinian, shoots dead from property."
Um....for those of us who haven't kept up with advancements in paraglider technology, have they actually made the current generation of intercontinental paragliders available for the consumer market? I'm hoping they kept some QoL features in, like a cup holder or a small pocket for phones.
The only acceptable two state solution is turning England into Palestine's colony
