When will we call a spade a spade cause this is just outright terrorism. People are scared to leave their houses and go about their lives because of these thugs who dont even have a clue what theyre doing.

Just seen a video of a lynch mob of far right attacking a black man in the centre of Manchester. These are pre-planned race riots by political extremists. What the fuck is going on?

I’m wondering if this is our equivalent of the Jan 6 riot that happened in the US.
People all over the country just voted in a general election that Labour won by a landslide, but a small minority of extremists on the losing side, whipped up by disinformation and conspiracy theories being shared in far-right social media networks, and implicitly encouraged by right-wing political leaders, decided that the only appropriate response to this democratic result was to engage in a display of performative mob violence that revealed those involved to be the kind of full-on fascists that they’d previously been able to maintain plausible deniability about.
