This is a post from TRs X account. What do you think the intention is behind his posting of this video?

Note - he gives no context as to why these people are there in large numbers or wearing veils, including young children. Unsurprisingly loads of others have shared it, again with no context.

The context of an image is important. This isn’t everyday in downtown Dearborn, Michigan as TR would have people believe. It’s a yearly historical reenactment of a procession women and children were forced to make after a battle at Karbala. They remember a 3-4 year old girl who died, imprisoned after being forced to sleep with her father’s severed head when she didn’t stop crying. That is why the women and children are dressed this way and why they are upset - they show their grief in slapping their head and body.

The battle resulted in the death of the grandson of prophet Mohammed who had refused to submit to an Islamic leader. The girl mentioned above was his daughter.

The event”s message isn’t one of anger or retribution though. It is one of peace and that everyone should be treated with love and respect. Now I wonder why TR didn’t include that in his posting?

Horror movie scenes straight out of Dearborn, Michigan. This isn't normal. This isn't what America is about. Remigration and de-islamisation this out.

What part of being a fascist thug is likeable?

Having something targeted at a sub group that need it is not saying other people don’t matter. This is like men whining that a service set up to help traumatised women is saying male victims don’t matter.

But the TRAs do exactly that. And male groups do too. Womens DV shelters are constantly being accused of being non-inclusive.

Listen, as I said, I think having groups for specific vulnerable groups is very much necessary sometimes. Im saying that I can see how some might interpret it as other groups don't matter. Weve had this in the service I worked for - I am shocked that a service wouldnt know this though and release a FB post like that because we know the reaction it would cause. All it needed was a line on it explaining why. I know you may think its spectactularly stupid but a lot people, especially since GI kicked off, think literally any provider servicing a particular group is not inclusive. I find that quite depressing.

I don’t get your point. I am not talking about “TRAs”.
I am talking about thise who claimed they can see why Yaxley-Lennon whipped up his followers against a rape crisis centre because it “suggests white women don’t matter”.

It does not suggest that remotely and Yaxley-Lennon knows that. But is so blinded by his sense of victimhood and hatred of the “other” he caused actions that would have made it harder for women to access a service they needed.
