Taking this opportunity to say how absolutely disgusting the riots currently going on in the UK are
like I try to keep this blog fun and lighthearted but Jesus Christ
far right maniacs like Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage are using the deaths of three girls to spread hatred and lies about immigrants, Muslims and people of colour and this is not ok
people have been hurt by these riots, a library near my hometown has been burned. I can’t leave my house.
it’s important we call out the lies and misinformation spread by these fascist grifters, who are trying to sew hatred and violence in my country
and I feel the need to emphasise that the murders of Alice Dasilva Aguiar, who was nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, who was seven, and Bebe King, who was six, were horrific events that should not have happened. That does not, however, justify the racism fuelled riots across the country. Axel Rudakubana was born in Britain and has not had his religion verified but his vile actions are being used to vilify all immigrants and Muslims. Call out lies and behaviour like this because the real horrifying impacts are happening just down the road from me. Thank you for reading and pls reblog and share <3
