Certainly got you discussing it, it seems as if its the press that decides what it is here we have a white 50+ male being described as a wholesome family man.....because he's white, if he was brown well who knows what he would have been described as, it's what the press want, or the right wing scum bag press, of course it prob was nothing to do with terrorism but it shows dependant how easy that shit is to trot out out dependant on skin shade.............

Well that I agree with.

I don't think this was terrorism, but manipulation by the media and on social media has been driving misogyny, racism, homophobia and pseudoscience. It pervades into culture. "BBC are leftys (sic)", "we have extreme left wing government", "what was the middle is now seen as right wing", 'our cities are controlled by muslims and have no go areas". Seen all these lies in the last few days. You even see it on posts here from time to time. Most people are decent folk regardless of religion or race. The amplification of any wrong doing by a Muslim, black person, LGBT+ person etc, is grotesque. Why are we not asking about the corruption of the Johnson/Truss/Sunak era. We could fund proper controls and process for immigration and asylum on the money spunked away on dodgy Covid contracts. We have gone backwards as a nation in the last decade by allowing liars like Johnson and Farage and frankly arseholes like Musk and the Tates get away with it.
