I know she feeds off publicity and the best thing really would be to ignore her until she shrivels and dies of fame starvation so I apologise for the thread but this is really too much now isn't it?

User-can I ask you a question?

Do you think there is any benefit at all in trying to find out why some young Muslim men are being radicalized and turned into murderers?

firstcutisthedeepest · 25/05/2017 10:42

When you start hating and labelling a group because of the actions of a few, that makes you a fascist.
No we are labelling the terrorists, shouldnt we do that?

user1471545174 · 25/05/2017 10:42

Yes Walrus, it's pretty clear you'd love this to be an OP + echo chamber thread but other people aren't just going to bugger off - loving that passive aggressive deletion - so engaging your brain might be another option, rather than assuming your received opinion is the only right one.

I will be buggering off soon as it happens, but only to RL.

Another Tweet from Queen Facist:

^“Next week I’ll be asking why God is only letting ebola kill black people – what does He know that we don’t?*

All fine with that one are we?

Orlantina · 25/05/2017 10:43

Orlantina it really is rather more than a few though

Is it? Or is it because you only ever hear Muslim used in a negative sense? If anything bad happens and it involved a Muslim, it's prominent news. Positive news - forget it.

And so it goes on. A media and social media that only seeks to put Muslims in a negative light. To feed the narrative.

It works for any group. And it's working.

NotISaidTheWalrus · 25/05/2017 10:43

Who in the name of fuck do you think "them" is?

You don't seem able to tell us.

user1471545174 · 25/05/2017 10:45

BertrandRussell I think that's important and I think it's being done already. Time isn't on our side, though.

Orlantina · 25/05/2017 10:45

'Them' apparently means anyone who is on a list.

Then it's ok to do with them what you want.

Fliptophead · 25/05/2017 10:47

dead from a terrorist bomb

I fucking hope you're trying to ban cars too as they're a lot more likely to kill you. Bloody idiot.

KH is insane, Walrus, we should be feeling sorry for her! That level of attention-seeking is beyond pathological.

The people aren't all going to rise up and get behind KH.

firstcutisthedeepest · 25/05/2017 10:49

I just did. THE ONES ON THE LIST.

Edsheeranalbumparty · 25/05/2017 10:49

Orlantina what has an 8 year old child to do with that?

Obviously nothing. But then this was a man so brainwashed that he strapped explosives to himself and blew himself to smithereens. That is NOT making excuses for him by the way, but that is a fact.

Do you honestly think that ISIS propaganda doesn't even mention the actions of the West in the Middle East? Do you think they don't use images of kids who have been killed by weapons sold by western countries?

The whole thing is so fucked up. I really hate humans sometimes.

Fliptophead · 25/05/2017 10:49

firstcutisthedeepest*

How is it we should not be wasting our time talking about kh but you can be? Shouldn't you be out there rounding up he families of brown people?

If we're going to arrest people for knowing terrorist then we better arrest people for being linked to any crime. Your son rapes someone- lock you up. You raised a rapist after all.

Your sister robs a bank- locked up... you should have reported her shifty eyes

I don't know who posted that OP, but cars don't have intent to kill, so the poster is not the idiot.

It's not about probability, it's about intent. Most car drivers don't leave the house intending to kill.

lessworriedaboutthecat · 25/05/2017 10:50

If it works for any group then why are Muslims being singled out for special treatment then. Why aren't we picking on the Sikh's, the Hindu's, the Chinese, the Jew's, Christian Africans and people from the Caribbean. Could it be that while every community has its criminals and scum only one is currently committing horrific terrorist atrocities on a regular basis.

NotISaidTheWalrus · 25/05/2017 10:51

I just did. THE ONES ON THE LIST

What list is that? What puts them on this list? What proof is needed?

You have no fucking idea what you are talking about.

user1471545174 · 25/05/2017 10:52

EdSheeran I'm Irish, why wouldn't I fucking understand? It's not an excuse, though!

firstcutisthedeepest · 25/05/2017 10:52

what disgusting talk. 23 people dead from a terrorist bomb and youre talking about the more likeyhood of a car crash. Tell that to the families of the dead, and dont downplay the seriouness of the threat. Fucking idiot.

Orlantina · 25/05/2017 10:52

So how do you get on the 'list'?

derxa · 25/05/2017 10:52

That's if you missed the whole discussion about Nazi propaganda and how they got into power I despair. I listened to Yasmin Alibhai Brown
this morning She was a beacon of common sense. Why don't we focus on her and people who know what they're talking about.

nauticant · 25/05/2017 10:53

The people aren't all going to rise up and get behind KH.

Hate speech is about creating a climate in which bad people feel they are justified in causing harm to others. It's dangerous even if the hate speakers aren't going to seize power. It's especially dangerous when people are afraid and want easy answers.

It's just poison to a civilised society.

I'll agree with you though that KH's writings suggest that she has mental health problems.

Fliptophead · 25/05/2017 10:53

Those of you who says she says what you're thinking.... cool with this?

Rubbish. For example.

Let's lock up all the white men! Put them on a list! Oh, wait...

No I should be talking about rounding up the families and friends of a couple of bad peiple, that would be the sensible thing.
