Original Note:
These protests are firey, but mostly peaceful. The only confirmed injuries are among demonstrators. Characterizing peaceful demonstrators as “thugs” is a dangerous dog whistle that dehumanizes and encourages further violence. This is against X’s community guidelines. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1931765/uk-riots-stoke-hanley-mosque-fight/amp
