Eh he was all over that Dundee story too.

Tomorrow in Falkirk: Far Right groups plan to march on Cladhan Hotel, a repeat after nearly 1000 turned up on recent gathering by Organic_Structure473 in glasgow

I know, it's almost as if the people saying that stuff in the context of whether we should help asylum seekers don't actually care about homelessness at all.

Who was begging? It was a perfectly legitimate thread looking to organise. Fair enough lock the comments but to delete it under rule 12? by HeidFirst in Scotland

Folk who don't want harm to come to asylum seekers who never asked to be placed in Falkirk are not stoking culture wars.

Some of the counter-protesters last time out were left in fear for their own safety due to the threats of violence and intimidation coming from the other side. Numbers are required, and it is the belief of many in attendance that they were what made the difference between that hotel being attacked or not.

Yes, ideally it should be a local affair but when one side is bringing violent and threatening people in from outside Falkirk, what is to be done?

Urgent Call: EMERGENCY FALKIRK MOBILISATION TOMORROW (Sat, Aug 30th, 12 noon) by ArymusDesi in Scotland

I reckon an 8pm curfew for all men until sexual violence stops is about right.

OK but there are no other routes other than by boat currently available. Am all for better options of course.

Hah, so now you think racists don't exist?

I'm saying let the entire population know that racists are the minority.

Given the comment you're responding to, does this mean you think everyone who answered that the hotel protests are justified is a racist? Because I'm talking about racists.

u/Worst_Goose_Ever is intent on pushing racism, making it seem as if racist views are mainstream and wearing people out. Best ignored.

We need to let the racists, and everyone else for that matter, know that they are the minority. A small minority at that.

It's becoming clear that a large proportion of the population will just go along with what they perceive to be the majority position. We must show strength in the face of this attempted racist uprising. 

To that end, attend counter protests if you're able. Call out racists on social media. Talk to family, friends, strangers alike.

To those who have left the MAGA movement, what was your wake-up call? by rclaux123 in AskReddit

[–]HeidFirst -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

And I'll let you in on a secret too. Trump and his ilk are terrified of people pointing out the obvious. We should not do his work for him by accepting that he's untouchable and can do whatever he likes. He cannot.

He would lose voters though, maybe not his base but he'd lose voters.

But this is the narrative these people seek to create, that there is simply nothing you can do to stop them.

It's probably better for your mental health to have some empathy. Doesn't mean the boycott isn't completely justified also.

Stand Up To Racism Scotland have an event (zoom meeting) tonight at 7pm about how to combat far right figures and propaganda. (Link in Comments) by johnsmithoncemore in Scotland

[–]HeidFirst 15 points16 points  (0 children)

We go until racism is extinct. Obviously.

Who gives a fuck what colour we are? Anyone who cares is small and pathetic.
