A British born 17year old born to Rwandan migrant parents murdered three children last week at a dance class in a struggling northern English town Far/Right wing people whipped up a storm online with misinformation that this was Islam inspired, building on lots of anti migration sentiment (tends to be Islamic) and the fact(?) that most recent things like this have been Islam inspired There was loads of rioting, attacking police officers, mosques in the town, other nearby towns, and London, where there was a Nazi salute I blame far right people and also Twitter/Facebook algorithm. I also saw some people helping rebuild a mosque so that was nice… Then I also saw clips of Muslim groups doing ‘counter riots’ or the like where they chanted Allahu Akbar and attacked some innocent people in a park. I could only see two examples of this though, whereas the right wing stuff was much more widespread Cultural integration & diversity has succeeded in many places, tolerated in some, and has failed in others.
