I don’t know shit about politics. All I know is that in the UK the Labour party won, and the Conservative party lost.

I read some protestors are protesting against racism. What is this about? Protesting against new party that just won? I thought the Labour party was left-wing, meaning they are more on the social-equality side? I’m lost.

    I wont bother replying after this unless you actually engage in the topic of discussion rather than constantly challenging the topic.

    If you have a problem with the topic, then like I have repeatedly said, suggest a different frame of reference.

    There has been more right wing violence (you know, the riots going on across the country?) than in the last x amount of years. More than the last 5 years. 10 years. 25 years.

    What other right wing violence at the scale of the current riots and violence has there been? If you disagree then share an example.

    Stop being obtuse.

    edit

    Why are you comparing to a time period

    What other comparison is there? suggest a different comparison if you have a problem with … comparing today to historical events?

      You never mentioned scale. You’ve introduced a new concept. You’re shifting the goal posts.

      What other comparison is there? suggest a different comparison

      Why is making a comparison important?

          Damn, I would have simply blocked the troll long before this! You have the patience of a saint.
