Counter-Activism

  • The self-righteous have to stop

    The era of the widespread movements of people across the world so as to build up protests has now got to stop.

    It’s too similar a story now.

    The trailing of someone like Nelson Mandela to drum up support for liberalism.

    The tours of Holocaust survivors to justify the Left’s attack on the darkness of a democracy led by their foe – the far right.

    The presentation of endless Gaza children to strangle the lifeblood out of any that are left to speak about decency and good order in their own society.

    This is the problem with the West, and it threatens to get worse.

    This is the new order of the hypocrite, the vile hot blood that has a temper and a tantrum to show.

    They show their unease with modern ways of living by occupying hospitals and trashing universities.

    They wreck through neighbourhoods to tear up plants and kick down fences.

    They’re an abomination to the natural senses and have zero logic to tell us to our minds.

    They can’t instruct. They can’t conduct themselves in a civil way by their choosing. They can’t construct vital arguments that are supported by research or opinion.

    This is what our country has to stand up against, to resume a process of representation of all who want to stay, and vote here.

  • The confusion of UK activism

    The likelihood of extremism on UK streets is low, but social media and particular journalistic writers would suggest otherwise. The promulgation of apparently pro-British or anti-racist material is equally damaging to perceptions of law and order. It’s a simplification of crime fighting that happens every day by our police force.

    A protest organized to host public speaker Tommy Robinson this Saturday is one example of the complexity brought about by free speech. It won’t go ahead with its keynote speaker because he’s being detained before trial next week. It illustrates how difficult it is to string a narrative through a person’s life to make a claim of racist activity or fascist intent.

    The case itself isn’t about racism, or his critique of Islam. Those who report on court activity say that a case is an indication of less clarity than its achievement. Our justices work through reams of data to come through with judgments that act as decisions on individual things. It excludes all the other facets and aspects of someone’s secular activity.

    The activists among us like to bring crystal clear clarity as ‘rulings’ on people which presume to help us conclude better how society should be. The reality is we rarely ever see the ‘real’ person who acts in front of us. They’re considered separate as they’re special and our judgement of them is clouded because they’re famous. It’s no clearer than before.
