Current Affairs London Protests

You are being fed lies by your puppet masters mate.

You may think you are socially awoken but you're just another pawn in the elites game to promote division amongst the poor.

When whites are fighting blacks
And brits are fighting Johnny foreigner
And employed folk are fighting benefit "scroungers"

Who ultimately comes out on top? Those on the left are just as hoodwinked as the poor sods fed Brexit propaganda by Ukip and the like.

Incredible lol

I think it was a volte-face by the original poster....

It wasn't.

Just wondering why we should apply the logic to one scenario but not another.

 

[Jebus_lives]

I'm not going to comment. I'm already having 3 different arguments with him and I'm worn out

Probably wise

It's nothing to do with preference and rather the susceptibility of infection and the severity of the impact due to a variety of conditions be that medical or social.

By virus, you mean COVID-19 don't you? To say it is a preference would suggest there is a prejudicial choice who it infects or impacts.

Tiresome semantics. Fact is, if you are of the BAME community you are more at risk of dying from the COVID19, you have every right to feel anger. It's ok to look after our elderly and those of us in ill health or drive our buses, but just don't moan about it, and be a good little chap, not for me thank you very much.

Incredible lol

It is incredible - the left ignore the real reasons of inequality in society whilst do nothing but encourage whites against blacks.

Im sure it will continue to pave wonders for race relations firing up young kids to burn our countries flag whilst attacking innocent people.

It's not semantics, at all. The reality of racism and how a virus impacts a certain demographic based on a variety of factors (many non-human) are entirely different.

Is Sickle cell racist? Is COVID-19 ageigst or sexist towards men? I am all for protesting against racism, but you're (intentionally or unintentionally) blurring the lines.

It isn't racist to express a concern regarding how any major protest or gathering (like on the beaches etc.) may have a detrimental impact on wider health.

Where do you get your lines from, Spiked?

blaming “the left” is one of the symptoms of that condition; as is claiming that they were left but can’t now vote for them because (insert made up reason here)

Ahaha yeah I've seen O'Neil claim that a few times. And that Andrew Doyle.

I enjoy 'the left' too, like they all just agree on everything.

Just like one black person speaks for all black people.

One person trying to burn a flag is all BLM.

There are many on the left (mainly working class) who genuinely mean well and want to make society better who I support fully.

However those on the fringe and the elite of the ideology have no intention in doing so and are happier pitting people against each other whilst continuing to profit of it.

Or citing one black persons opinion means you cannot possibly be anti-funny tinge

The virus clearly does give a flying one it has a preference for killing ethnic minorities, hence the anger in BAME community. They have gone for scorched earth policy of protest rather than being cajoled back in normality with Yes sir Mr Johnson, anything you say Mr Johnson sir... Good for them, it's now 2020.

That 'scorched earth policy' is an dindulgence that the majority of them can withstand: they are young and will survive any contact with the virus. Older, vulnerable people who come into contact with any virus they spread, however, either wont survive it or will have their health destroyed because of it.

Stop being obtuse. These marches are unforgivable in the context we're now in.

Which ideology are you referring to?

This all seems a bit overhyped tbh. Unless I’ve missed some footage the “rioting” in London has been pretty tame by rioting standards and miles off what we had after Mark Duggans death.

The fact the major outrage is primarily about statues being vandalised seems confirmation of this.
