And I said that I don't know if it applies in this case.
Could they have been people who'd just had their house and car windows smashed in, as seen in one of the other videos from Middlesbrough, maybe? Context is needed here, isn't it?
Blackpool and Rotherham are tourist hubs, to be fair.
There is absolutely zero logic for a British person to ever do any of that stuff. Blows my mind that people can be so uneducated in this country.
The Nazis would have murdered every single one of them without thought and they are dressing up like them, glorifying them and saluting. Jesus christ, what do you even say.
Always so serious.
Hopefully they're all too busy at work for the rest of the week...
There is an insane group of people who legitimately believe that Europe and the US should have aligned with Hitler and gone after the commies instead. They view the conflict between Nazi Germany and (most of) the Allies as some form of misunderstanding.
I'd guess the stated argument is that local businesses want big spending tourists rather than asylum seekers.
Interesting take
That's classic police, turning a blind eye when people of colour commit violent crimes.
The ones that have been targeted are Tamworth and Rotherham. No tourists ever have gone to either of those places.
Interesting take
Their thinking is basically "Hitler had right idea, but perhaps he was a little too power hungry and aggressive. If he had been willing to create a new world order with Britain and the US, then we'd live in a utopia now"
That's not that mad a take. Pre 1938 lots of the ruling classes would have agreed. There was no real ideological opposition to Hitler, (outside Moscow), he just did his killing a little close to home; the reaction of the allies was an existential one as he looked a threat.
Yeah, definitely not an incredibly evil drug fuelled maniac. Easy to make that misunderstanding I guess!Their thinking is basically "Hitler had right idea, but perhaps he was a little too power hungry and aggressive. If he had been willing to create a new world order with Britain and the US, then we'd live in a utopia now"
Basically this. He had the right ideas but a difficult personality. He invented the microphone and the highways. And he was so intelligent, that he was able to write with both hands at the same time.Their thinking is basically "Hitler had right idea, but perhaps he was a little too power hungry and aggressive. If he had been willing to create a new world order with Britain and the US, then we'd live in a utopia now"
It's absolutely appalling to see what's happening. So incredibly sad.
Considering the low bar for burning their own, you'd think Labour would be hanging out Sarah Edwards who seems just as guilty for steering this up as that cnut Farage.
You know better than I do.
This is almost exactly what right-wing US commentator Candace Owens said a while back: "If Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well — OK, fine. The problem is he had dreams outside of Germany". The people that think like this are out there.Their thinking is basically "Hitler had right idea, but perhaps he was a little too power hungry and aggressive. If he had been willing to create a new world order with Britain and the US, then we'd live in a utopia now"
Is that right? I don't think there was widespread support, people just chose not to confront him. There was plenty of opposition from within.
They began persecuting and marginalising the Jewish people and others for many years before that. As far back as 1932/33.
Whoops.
Apparently they were racist fascists who were attacking houses of ordinary people and got what they deserved. Others ran into the pub and locked the door to escape.
There was opposition but not ideological. Lots of Europe was doing the same, just not on their own doorstep.
As bad as the British occupation in Ireland was, it was nothing like what happened at the hands of the Europeans on other continents.
Hitler basically ruined genocide for the major players. He was the culmination of two centuries of slaughter more than he was an outlier. I've mentioned it here before but 'Exterminate All The Brutes" by Sven Lindquist is essential reading on the topic. It's a short and extremely readable book.
But the whole of Europe were still aghast at what happened in 1917 in Moscow. So the initial point is not without basis.
"We should go inside the mosque and started stabbing"
Same knuckle dragger: "my words were taken out of context"
What?
The two-tier policing argument I keep seeing on Twitter is proper mad.
These same right wing people were defending GMP a fortnight ago after the incident at the airport.

I'll check that book out thanks.
Is the documentary worth a watch if you've seen that also?
It's his MO.
He comes into threads like these, posts a few vague dog whistle comments, refuses to elaborate when he's called out on them, then returns a few days later with more of the same
And that was supported by the upper classes elsewhere. Have you never seen the Daily Mail's "Hurrah for the Blackshirts" headline?
Sadly not no.
Been on my to watch list for about a year!
99.9% They are the typical Brexit deadhead spouting bile and far right disinformation on a daily basis.
Lots on the Web about it, but wiki summarises it well, under the 'Enthusiast for Fascism' section:

Think I may watch tonight, looking for something good to watch recently.
Twitter is full of a lot of coloured people hooded up holding Machete's rioting also, is it not a case of two sides both rioting against each other?
