You'd think people have seen at least some of the light after the thugs torched buildings etc. But on my FB I'm still seeing people in my local community group giving it "I'm not a racist, I'm just concerned for my country and the mass influx of immigration"
Honestly the most depressing thing is seeing folk justify this behavior as patriotism. At least it made it easy to know who just drop from my friends list in the next FB cull.
If there is any bright side to the riots, surely it's that these dickheads have come out from their basements and shown themselves and a few hundred of them are now heading to prison, which will hopefully shut them and their mates up for a while.
And also all the regular people who may have been flirting with some of the far right's ideas have now seen it for what it is, fascist thugs looking to cause fear and destruction in communities, and will maybe turn away from those ideas.
