The USB ports/built-in media players on TVs, at least in my experience, are incredibly fussy about the file formats they'll recognise, let alone play.

July 3, 1981 - Toxteth Riots in Liverpool start.

Lot of people pointing it out on twitter, the nazi salutes at war memorials make perfect sense when you realise that War memorials have become Nationalist symbols, Churchill has become the nationalist avatar and the Seig Heil has become the nationalist salute. It's all perfectly consistent with their own logic. Like how Americans can fly the confederate flag along side their stars and stripes.

These people will never reckon with the simple truth that the BNP got absorbed into UKIP and they were fine with UKIP because it was headed up by the upper class. Nor that UKIP was absorbed into the Tory party right after.

She's the type of person who won't say someone is racist unless that person stands in front of her and says "I am racist" isn't she.

Ok I was being far too lenient with the media. They’re just corrupt as gently caress. Still think it’s weird that the guardian is doing its best to not upset the far right. I know they’re neoliberal but I’m not sure what they get out of this. None of their 20 readers are far right.

The Guardian spent four years screeching against the Labour party the second it wasn't controlled by the right wing of the party. They only serve to demand more women guards at the racism factory.

It's what really enrages me about it, the Cenotaph and a few other memorials in London are basically graves and the right use those without a batted eye lid, much like Lee Rigby is used as a ideological and political football even when the family repeatedly ask it not to be.

I genuinely laughed slightly hysterically out loud and said oh my loving god.

The lengths our press will go through to avoid calling people fascists, who are fascists.

Love how it's all being called a "Scuffle". Like one polis smashes themselves into a traffic light and they were howling like the walls of civilisation were crumbling in, these cunts are litterally squaring up to the police like popeye and they're describing it like the rugby got too rough.

I can only assume theres some overly cautious legal dept thinking these things up. To you and me an Anti-racist critic is a racist, but straight up calling then racists probably opens you up for legal action. A legal action that these fash would love to have.

Been a fair few years since I studied defamation but uuhhh I think there might be a few solid defences to anti-anti-racists complaining about being called racist, and I for one would love to read that judgment

I'd think so. It's hard to look at "anti-antifascist" and not cancel out the antis. If you were genuinely trying to hide the connection to fascism you'd say "anti-antifa" since that's how everyone else obscures what antifa is about.
