No, all it’s saying is, if we are so concerned about violence against women, how come we aren’t making the same amount of noise about our homegrown problem? How come people are demanding something is done about this group of men but aren’t protesting outside bars, and schools, and nightclubs, and churches and… every other place women and girls are regularly assaulted?
Here’s another thought. Look at the demographics of the Sarah Everard vigil, v the Epping Forest protest. Both groups claim it’s about violence against women, but how one was largely attended by women, and the other largely not.
Find any social media post about women being assaulted and look at the comments, then find one about a woman being attacked by an immigrant and see the difference. The first will have a plethora of men victim blaming, saying how you can’t do anything these days, PC gone mad etc, the second will claim we have to send these guys back to protect our women and girls.
Why, all of a sudden, do we have so many men coming out and defending women, decrying violence against women, saying something must be done?
I’m fucking fed up of the argument too, because it is so bloody transparent and anyone who still thinks this has anything to do with women is either being fooled by the self interest groups whipping up this argument or are fooling themselves about where they really stand on this issue.
