Who/what are racists according to UK protests? Why are they protesting?
  • It started with a horrifying knife attack where the perpetrator stabbed 11 children and killing 3 of them. 2 adults were also stabbed. This attack horrified the nation.

    News stories alleged that the perpetrator was an Islamic illegal immigrant, social media did what it does best: whipping up emotions and exaggeration and feeding it to people with poorer standard of education.

    The background here is that there are concerns surrounding illegal immigration in the UK, as it is sold by criminal gangs as a country of neverending riches. Some opinions are justified, and some are not.

    As you can imagine,far right organisation jumped on this as an excuse to encourage shitty behaviour, and the worst of them used it as an excuse to have a tantrum and damage peopkes properly, attack people of different ethnicities and get themselves locked up for it.

    TL:DR : Horrible racist and bigoted individuals made a tragedy about them, and now we all have to deal with their shittiness.

    But the whole thing is moot, as you say. Just more empty posturing so we can pretend to be doing something.

  • Yes.

    This is his wife, Priscilla. They met when she was 14 and her was 24. He had to get the parents permission to date her with a chaperone.

    I appreciate different times and so on, but yuck.

  • RARBG alternative

    Hi folks; Looking for some guidance here.

    As the title suggests, I'm a long-term user of rarbg and was wondering if anyone had an alternative to something similar since the shutdown.

    By similar I mean:

    • with picture pop-ups when you hover over the link with the arrow.

    • all the crap quality screeners and cams curated.
