Original Note:
This account is using the violent actions of far-right nationalists to encourage people to blame the newly elected Labour government for the unrest. This is the equivalent of an abuser blaming the victim for causing the abuser's violence. https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/02/uk/eight-arrested-uk-protest-stabbings-intl-hnk/index.html https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victim_blaming https://www.thehotline.org/resources/blame-shifting-and-minimizing-theres-no-excuse-for-abuse/
