Violent clashes have erupted between white nationalists attending a far-right march and counter-protesters in the US state of Virginia.

Honestly where do these people find the energy? I can only assume their lives are boringly empty. Then again I'm not even sure I put as much energy as them into things I even like.

Very good point. A lot of them are either very young or middle aged and only just discovering the internet.

I got into using the Steam Show website for a bit, but my interest tapered off quickly when I realised the reason behind a lot of the more idiotic "takes" was that the poster in question was probably about 17. At that age, I was only just waking up to the idea that TV licenses are a bit of a rip off- Imagine if I'd had all this to contend with.

The woke lot have their hearts in the right place but they're mostly young, suburban, middle class Americans, and what they don't realise yet is that a lot of their concepts and the paradigm through which they interpret politics, racial interactions, etc etc is mostly a function of their own specific demographic circumstances. Their idea of white privilege is just their own specific kind of suburban, affluent American privilege, that it doesn't occur to them not everybody shares. Their internet vitriol and twitter zealotry is a symptom of gradually realising their place in things.

Reassuringly, class based politics seems to be resurfacing among people who realise there's something not quite right about it all. The twitter hate mob haven't done themselves any favours by attempting to hypocritically cancel several high profile black people who have spoken out without sticking to the established narrative.

Anyway.

>Their demands are so nebulous and unambitious they're either in it for the clout or a deeply insidious cult who daren't show the outside world even a little bit of what's behind the curtain lest the SBS get sent round for a cuppa and a chat. However, I find the latter option far less likely.

The Mail have been doing some digging into the social media of the leader of Foever Family Force, Khari McKenzie who goes by the rap name Raspect.

They've found anti-semitic posts, which seems to be increasingly common amongst rappers at the minute, anti-trans posts and anti-vaccination ones too.

I've seen a few posts suggesting the march was primarily a marketing exercise to funnel money into the company through PayPal donations, which apparently is to loan money and rent out office space to black businesses.

It's an ancient conflict cycling back around on us for the modern age. If you buy into the whole historical whitewashing shtick and you think modern black people really wuz kangz n shiyet, which a lot of the most vocal groups seem to, then it's really no surprise they detest and see themselves as superior to the filthy Canaanites.

It's all incredibly daft. It's a lot like those pasty white lads who think they're the descendants of Vikings, as if the passing of over a thousand years of history doesn't render any tenuous link utterly irrelevant under hundreds of other factors over the years.

BLM have held a rally in London to mark the anniversary of Mark Duggan's death.

Most folk in this country are happy to pretend to be Yanks, fight over Yank problems and generally pay no more attention to UK politics than calling Johnson a "prick". Actually they probably say "asshole" or "douchebag" now. I'm not against anti-racism protests, but "defund the police" is clearly the answer to America's problem of ultra-violent coppers who seem to have a force running every other street corner. I'm not going to sing the praises of this country's coppers, but to transplant Seppo problems directly onto our own is no way to solve anything.

I hate this country. It's just racists, pretend Americans, shit food and mishapen bits of tarmac in various stages of decay.

Last night the police raided the premises of a, primarily black, youth anti-knife crime charity, on the grounds that they were going to take part in that rally. They arrested two youth workers for obstruction or something and a 14 year old on the grounds that they thought he smelled of weed.

This video gives you some idea of the work that charity does.

Here's an article with more information on what I'm on about:
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/aug/07/london-police-station-blockaded-after-14-year-olds-arrest

It's probably quite easy to sit behind a keyboard and declare that it's just BLM are pretending to be Americans, and "our cops aren't racist see" but police actions like this are not all that different to Yank ones.

Mate, I said in my post that I'm all for anti-racism protests. You won't hear me bellyaching about EPL players taking a knee or expressions of cross border solidarity. However, many people in this country are just as, if not more, invested in goings on in the US that problems that are facing the UK itself.

According to the article the boy was arrested because he smelled of cannabis and they'd found drugs had been thrown nearby. The officers' vehicle was blockaded by people unhappy with what had happened so the police had to call in for reinforcements.

In your version there was a raid because of the Mark Duggan protest today and they arrested people for seemingly no reason.

I know there's issues with the Met, but your post is reminding me exactly of my work colleague who supports Tommy Robinson and spouts half-truths and absolute bollocks.

>The BBC has received more than 18,000 complaints from the public after it broadcast a racial slur, amid growing internal staff discontent at the decision.

>A television news report on a racially aggravated hit-and-run attack on an NHS worker in Bristol featured a BBC journalist repeating the racist language allegedly shouted at the victim.

>“Just to warn you you’re about to hear highly offensive language,” said the reporter, before quoting the alleged attacker’s use of the N-word as they fled the scene. The report originally aired on the regional Points West bulletin, before being repeated on the national BBC News channel the following day.

Apparently the victim and family were determined that it should be used to let the public know the severity of the attack as it was initially reported as a hit and run without any racial motivation.

Are you that thick-lad from yesterday?

>The BBC has defended its broadcast, saying the decision to report the racist language allegedly used in the attack was made following discussions with the victim and his family, who wanted viewers to appreciate the severity of the incident.

>“Notwithstanding the family’s wishes, we independently considered whether the use of the word was editorially justified given the context,” it said. “The word is used on air rarely, and in this case, as with all cases, the decision to use it in full was made by a team of people including a number of senior editorial figures.”

That means a two-stage test took place:
1. A subjective assessment from BBC staff and the family
2. An objective test from independent people - likely a panel of experts - on editorial justification

Have a word with yourself, n-word (nincompoop).

"Where do we stand on 'sambo' being used? "

What has surprised me is that the general consensus on rudgwicksteamshow.co.uk is that the BBC were right to broadcast it; it was used in a factual context, there was a warning that they weren't going to be censoring offensive language during the report and it's better to put their audience in a fully informed position where they know what happened rather than sugar coating it and adding ambiguity - people, particularly those going about their lives completely sheltered from this sort of thing, need to be confronted with the shocking and disgusting reality of what happened and not a sanitised version.

Interesting fact; black gangs in London now engage in a practice called 'bagging' where the victim, having been knocked to the floor, is assaulted rectally using a sharp object like a bike wheel spoke or kebab skewer. The objective is to shred the intestinal lining in a way that can't be repaired surgically so the humiliated victim is forced to use a colostomy bag for the rest of their life.

Not that lad, but the Times article is based off something in GQ magazine.

When I remarked that must have been some knife, Metcalf shrugged: “Sometimes they use a kebab skewer.”

The scan showed two major concerns. The first was the patient’s colon, which had been perforated and would require surgery. He would likely require a colostomy bag, at least in the short term. Yet, among gangs, Metcalf told me, stabbing victims in the bowel is increasingly common and done on purpose to humiliate their victim.

“If you stab someone in the guts and you perforate the bowel, as a surgeon you just can’t close it up. Because it’s contaminated with faeces, there is a risk of getting infected. Therefore you have a colostomy bag, so your bowel is brought out into a bag, at least temporarily. It may be joined at a future stage when the bowels are all sterilised and clean.” It even has a name: it’s called bagging. “So they will aim to try and not just kill someone, but permanently disable them.”
