• The more than 100 far-right gatherings that were expected to take
place on Wednesday failed to materialise following the mobilisation of
6,000 riot officers and the deterrent effect of the swift arrests and
court appearances of those accused of participating in the weekend’s
violence.
• Instead, thousands of anti-racism protesters held their own counter
rallies, everywhere from Newcastle to Bristol to Birmingham, London and
Brighton. They formed human shields to protect asylum centres, and waved
placards saying “refugees welcome” and “reject racism, try therapy”.
• Police made a number of arrests around the country, many of them
stemming from online activity.
• The messaging app Telegram said it will be “removing channels and
posts containing calls to violence” in the UK. The app, which gained
prominence in far-right circles as one of the last places that the EDL
founder, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (better known as Tommy Robinson) was
allowed to post, has become a go-to app for the far-right.
• Lindsay Hoyle, the Commons speaker, wrote to MPs suggesting they
review their security in the wake of the threat of further riots – and
that some might want to consider working from home.
• London mayor Sadiq Khan called on people in the city to “check on
their friends and neighbours and show them that care and compassion is
what Londoners are all about”.
• Conservative shadow policing minister Matt Vickers, and Conservative
leadership hopeful Robert Jenrick both made criticisms of Keir Starmer,
with Jenrick saying the prime minister “has made a mistake in that he
has not shown equal treatment to all forms of violence perpetrated by
whoever it is, wherever it is in the country”.

Why should anyone who's even remotely normal ever reject racism?

Racism is a knowledge and knowledge gives you power.

Once you're racist, you are aware of the racial difference and advantages and disadvantages of various races.

You can then make decisions that serve your best interests.

Harshly but directly put.

This is essentially what all human groups still surviving did as each
separate group encountered another for the first time.

Simply put, it is assessing a potential threat.

Now, based on that, a bunch of mythologies arose in which one "race" was
superior to others in certain ways (and this much is based on observable
fact), and that--by God and wouldn't you just know it?--the ways that
one's own race was superior was by far the most important.

And here I'm using the term "race" in the way it was often used in
Europe in the 18th, 19th, and first half of the 20th C, where the
Germans and French might term themselves as distinct "races". I prefer
the term "ethnicity" for this level of distinction, with race being used
for much broader categories of distinction roughly corresponding to the
traditional Caucasian/Mongol/Black African. There's some ambiguity in my
mind whether Polynesians, New Guinea/Australian blacks, and American
Indians are possibly on the evolutionary edge of being classed as
separate races. There may even be some exotic and isolated sub-groups
that fall into this category, I don't know. But now that the world is so
cosmopolitan and fluid the tendency toward evolutionary separation is
waning rapidly.

But so far as racial mythology, where each group views its own areas of
superiority to be more important than another race's areas of
superiority, Levantine Caucasians might view athletics as much less
important than civil engineering, with west African blacks feeling the
opposite. It seems to me that the early Greeks came closest to valuing
all areas of racial talent as desirable, and therefore tried, briefly,
for excellence in all areas.

But there's no point in treating obvious racial differences like
pornography--to be hidden, but still indulged in secret. Refreshingly,
in Hawaii, up until recently, there was no such reticence about
remarking on racial differences, and in this open social environment,
where race was discussed similar to the weather, race as a dividing
force, like it is currently in the US, was attenuated down to triviality
and talking about it became the accepted norm. Racial tensions were
almost non-existent.

...for what it's worth.

Compassion & Law & Order & Therapy. And the far-right
threat is again thwarted.
What about the far-left threats?

Those news articles claiming that it is "far right" who
is pissed off, are nothing but hoaxes. Yes, sure, some
of the people could be far-right, but the people on the
streets are mainly just regular folks who have had enough.

In Finland, our far-left YLE feeds us the same propaganda.
They claim the UK demonstrations are "far right" even
though they are not. Using "far right" to label people
is a convenient way to demonize them and ignore the
points that people are trying to raise.
