Sometimes hearing the denial of paramilitary involvement in the racist violence here makes you doubt the evidence of your own eyes and ears, so having this evidence is invaluable.
👮 | Almost 50 children were referred by police under child criminal exploitation protocols following race-related rioting in NI over the last 18 months.
An IRC report last month said there was "no doubt" of a paramilitary element to the disorder.

UK politics live – latest updates
British military veteran groups have condemned a government attempt to remove immunity provisions from Northern Ireland legacy legislation, claiming it will expose former soldiers to “hounding” through the courts.

Have noticed people IRL being casually anti-Semitic of late in a way I don't ever remember before - dropping things like "oh, shur they control the media, I saw it on Facebook" etc, largely via right-wing propaganda. Wherever it comes from or whatever the reason, it's real and it's so, so dangerous.

I sort of wish y'all took this more seriously, because this attitude is a reinforcement of heterosexuality as a hierarchy. It's an acknowledgement and understanding that it's not enough to "be with" a woman, or even to father children.
They define manhood as exploitation, abuse, and dominance.
