Studies in AUS found that since the social media ban went into effect teenagers are significantly less educated on news and events and more ignorant on what’s going on in the world. This is the goal. Western govts saw the rise of the information age and are seeking to quash it

Its crazy that there are just semi-regular race riots in the UK now

[Ben Mclaine @BenMclaine]

Strange to think that the far right probably did more criminal damage in a single night than Palestine Solidarity movements have done in the past three years.

Two tier policing, indeed.

[🇬🇧King 🇬🇧 @King0243_PJC]

After Belfast, I’ve been looking at some of the most extreme accounts flooding UK discussions.

A striking number appear to have little or no genuine connection to the communities they’re commenting on, yet they’re relentlessly amplifying division, anger and far-right narratives.

Meanwhile, X’s algorithm rewards outrage because outrage drives engagement.

At what point do we stop pretending this is an organic public conversation and start asking whether anonymous networks, bots, and location-masked accounts are helping inflame tensions in Britain?

The Government cannot keep ignoring the role social media platforms play in amplifying social unrest. #Belfast

When a White man went on a horrific rampage with a samurai sword in London, killing & nearly decapitating 14-year-old Daniel Anjorin, the community grieved with unity & vigils. No one launched vigilante attacks targeting White people or burned down their homes. The individuals rioting now are racist opportunists looking for an excuse to harm minorities, and we must call it what it is.

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

He doesn’t think of the victim

He doesn’t call for peace

He doesn’t ask for a thorough investigation

He doesn’t ask for an end to violence

He asks what his race is to whip up hate.

An evil little man.

[aimée 🇮🇪🇵🇸 @sapphyreblayze]

If your response to an innocent man being brutally assaulted is to burn other innocent people out of their homes, you're a fucking monster. It really is that simple.

[Thanos Angelopoulos @Th_Angelopoulos]

You say that post-Floyd DEI training created the policing culture that killed Henry Nowak. This is testable. If you're right, the pattern should begin after 2020. It doesn't.

Christopher Alder, 1998. Falklands veteran. Dragged handcuffed and unconscious into a Hull custody suite. Left face down on the floor. Officers stood around while he choked to death. Ten minutes before anyone helped. Inquest: unlawful killing. Five officers charged. All acquitted.

Sean Rigg, 2008. Schizophrenic man, died at Brixton police station after restraint. Inquest found "unsuitable and unnecessary force" and police failings "more than minimally" contributed to his death.

Robert Edwards, 2011. Died in a Suffolk cell. The IPCC found police "failed to take appropriate care" and didn't carry out proper welfare checks. The coroner said he should never have been deemed fit for detention.

Wayne Couzens, 2015–2021. Reported for indecent exposure in 2015. Kent Police had his name, address, and plate number. The investigating sergeant knew his brother, also a police officer. No action. Failed vetting twice, still became a Met officer. Exposed himself days before murdering Sarah Everard. The investigating officer lied about CCTV. Three forces had twenty years of red flags. Nothing to do with DEI

Post-Floyd, still no DEI involvement: Stephen Reardon, 2023, had seizures in a police van while the officer said he was "playing games". Died. Jerome Cowan, 2022, found unresponsive in a library, officers failed to provide first aid. Died. A man at St Erth, 2022, left drunk and vulnerable outside a railway station on a cold night, officers drove past without stopping. Died. All officers dismissed or facing gross misconduct.

Same pattern every time. A person in distress needs help, officers dismiss it or walk away. It happened in 1998, 2008, 2011, 2022, 2023, and 2025. DEI didn't create it. It predates it by a generation.

You also claim "determined, institutional silence". The Speaker acknowledged the case on 1 June. The Home Secretary called it "a horrifying act" and Digwa's false accusation "an evil act" in an oral statement to the Commons on 2 June. Debated in both Houses. Starmer and Baddenoch clashed over it. Front-page news for a week. There is no silence. You invented it because your baseless argument needs it.

You ask pretentiously what you call a system where a dying teenager's word counts for less than his killer's.

I'd ask you: what do you call a system where Christopher Alder choked to death on a custody floor in 1998 while officers stood around, and twenty-seven years later Henry Nowak bled to death saying the same words?

That is an ideology. But not the one you're describing. It's an institutional ideology of indifference to people in police custody, and it has been killing people for decades.

Blaming a training course that's existed for five years for a rot that's existed for hundreds of years isn't analysis. It's a deflection that protects the actual dangerous ideology.

[sarah 🇵🇸 @sazza_jay]

the left for decades: lots of people seem to die in police custody due to their incompetence or malice without consequences, and we ought to do something about that.

the right today: why don’t the left care that the police let a man die in their custody

[Mukhtar @I_amMukhtar]

When Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens kidnapped and murdered Sarah Everard, Nigel Farage released a five-minute video urging people not to attack men or the police.

Today, in response to the murder of Henry Nowak, he called for "pure cold rage."

Ask yourself why we heard so much about Green candidates but not Reform candidates like this one:

maga supporters talk about trump the same way gay men on stan twitter talk about female pop stars

[MAGA Voice @MAGAVoice]

President Trump is 79… King Charles is 77

Yet President Trump looks much younger

The LEFT can’t stand this

“He’s a legend now! He doesn’t have to perform anymore!”

So was Beyonce when she put on her performance.

It’s Coachella and you’re the highest paid act of all time. It’s okay to admit it was a lame HEADLINING “performance”. Y’all will defend a man over EVERYTHINGGG.
