An underdiscussed part of Musks obsession with causing as much division as possible in the Western world is Twitter activity rises whenever an incident like Belfast happens

More activity, more clicks, more influence etc

So obviously he wants to promote as much chaos as possible

We have been reading about Jewish fears of pogroms etc for 11 years now; but here are actual pogroms and I would bet my bottom dollar that those committing them support Israel and hate Palestinians

[Matthew Stadlen @MatthewStadlen]

Thanks in part to this filthy website, we seem in very recent times to be slipping back towards a place where whole groups of people, sometimes races or ethnicities, are being blamed for the evil-doing of a tiny minority. It is a profoundly backward, poisonous and anti-British ideology that is rooted in the gutter and represents the road to perdition.

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

The far-right love to see horrific incidents involving minorities because they can exploit them. They don't really care about the victims. Just look at what they were saying about Henry Nowak's family, especially after they found out that Henry has a mixed-race nephew.

[Pippa Crerar @PippaCrerar]

The family of the victim of the Belfast knife attack, Stephen Ogilvie call for calm after riots erupt in the city. In a statement issued via their MLA, they say:

“We are completely devastated by the horrific attack on our loved one. This has been a massive shock to our whole family, and right now our only priority is being at his bedside and helping him recover.

“We are aware of the tensions and talk of protests following this incident. We want to make it absolutely clear that overnight unrest is not welcome, and peaceful protest is the only way forward.

"We have many migrants who make a deeply valuable contribution to our country, including in our healthcare system and hospitality sector, and we depend on them to make our country work. We do not want this terrible tragedy to be used to divide people or fuel hostility.”

"We never had the kind of crimes we saw before mass immigration"

The UK is literally world famous for Jack The Ripper - one of world history's earliest and well known sadistic serial killers.

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

What happened in Belfast was what Lucy Connolly called for in Southport.

She was, quite rightly jailed.

Only for Reform to give her a heroes welcome at their conference, which normalised and applauded racial incitement.

Now look at where we are.

It’ll be lynchings next.

[Candice Holmes @hol40900]

Starmer: Reform whips up fear. Votes against solutions. Avoids tax. Then funnels donations.

All while asking "why isn't anything fixed?"

Because you're not paying for it. Literally. 💷🙃 #PMQs

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

"Very poor white people” are being convinced that “very poor, hard-working brown or Black people” are responsible for the “problems caused by billionaire white men”, Allison Morris, Crime Correspondent at the Belfast Telegraph, says in the wake of the riots that spread through the capital of Northern Ireland overnight.

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

I am old enough to remember the Ian Huntley riots when people went out in fury at a White man who raped and murdered two schoolgirls.

Except of course nobody did, and if it happened now nobody would.

The outrage is selective to their racism, and everybody sees it.

Joint statement with Mal O'Hara - Leader of the Green Party, Northern Ireland.

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

You voted against scrapping zero hour contracts.

You voted against banning fire and rehire.

You voted against day one sick pay for workers.

You said the minimum wage was too high for young people.

Reform politicians openly say they don't like trade unions.

You will always put the interests of your offshore crypto billionaire donors ahead of workers.

There were 408 mass shootings in the USA across 2025 according to The Trace’s Summary of Gun Violence Archive, so far in 2026, up to early June, there have been 175 mass shootings, meaning you can generally expect 1.1 per day across the country.

Bonkers.

[Thanos Angelopoulos @Th_Angelopoulos]

Spare us the civilisational lectures, you charlatan.

Atatiana Jefferson, 2019. Shot dead through her bedroom window during a welfare check. Playing video games with her eight-year-old nephew. The officer never identified himself.

Botham Jean, 2018. Shot dead eating ice cream in his own apartment by an off-duty officer who "thought it was her apartment".

John Albers, 2018. Seventeen years old. His friends called police because he was suicidal. Officers killed him during the welfare check.

Parkland, 2018. Seventeen children and staff massacred in their school. The armed officer paid to protect them? Hid outside.

Shajarah Tayyebeh Elementary School, Minab, February 2026. At least 175 dead, most of them girls aged 7 to 12. NYT analysis and US military investigators believe American forces struck the school. Trump blamed Iran without evidence. US Senators are still waiting for answers.

In 2025, American police killed 1,201 people. 98 unarmed. 233 school shootings at K-12 schools. American children do active shooter drills in primary school. American families are afraid to call for welfare checks because officers shoot the people they're sent to help.

Henry Nowak's father said: "We do not want Henry's murder to be used to create further hatred, division or tension". You used it anyway, to lecture a country 3,000 miles away while your administration bombs schoolgirls and your officers shoot people through bedroom windows.

The UK's government has plenty to answer for. But we don't take civilisational lectures from those who run a country that can't keep its children alive in their own classrooms and in their own homes and bomb children in far away lands, you pathetic charlatan.

"Nigel Farage did exactly what the family asked people not to do, to turn this into a divisive issue"

[Hamza Yusuf @Hamza_a96]

I assume Jenrick, Farage, Badenoch and co will be releasing their strongly worded statements soon?

[Sangita Myska @SangitaMyska]

No, Camilla. @ZackPolanski & over 60 politicians, human rights lawyers + others are not calling for a “list of Jews”. They are supporting a letter asking the UK Govt to secondary screen returning dual nationals & Britons who have served with the IDF since Oct’23. The aim is to find out whether they have fought in Gaza. This is bec Israel is accused of Genocide at the ICJ. It would fulfill the UK’s commitment to the Genocide Conventions. You appear to be defending Polanski being called “human trash” by Goldsmith. Is that the case?

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

Foreign money funding Reform UK.

Another 7m from two overseas British crypto billionaires - £4m from Hong Kong-based billionaire, £3m from Thailand.

Tax exiles shaping UK politics. What have they been promised?

Must ban political donations.
