BEFORE YOU COMMENT: Watch the video first. If you don't then some of you will be repeating either the stupid establishment narrative or the equally stupid hate all immigrants narrative. Anyone posting stuff that's likely to get the video flagged will get barred from commenting any of my vids. Keep it balanced, keep it cool. Cheers.
[UPDATE in response to replies]
1) I don't believe in the left vs right political model so there's no point trying to discuss that with me - that's an over-simplistic verbal trap of artificial division. I stopped thinking in those terms over a decade ago.
2) There are dozens of contributory elements to the recent UK riots explored in the video. If you're just here to post over-simplistic, single cause, only one group to blame, rhetoric already doing the rounds from either side of the "debate" then you either haven't watched the video or aren't particularly interested in anything more complex than newspaper headlines. But you are still free to go express those thoughts on your own channels or in other comment sections on the topic of the riots.
3) The reason I don't typically post political vids is because I find the over-simplistic and tribalistic language patterns (of party politics especially) incredibly predictable and boring. I'm only making an exception with this video because the coverage near enough across the board, both media discussion AND online chatter, has overlooked so many factors (factors I've tried to outline in this vid).

The reaction to the rioting by those with the power has been deeply disturbing.

[Knaeben]

It's hard to get any trustworthy info about this outside of the UK.

[picklejarmonsterfanboy]

Funny how the "right-wing" riot happened in the famous left-wing stronghold that is Northern England

[pyry]

The system is going in at full force, trumped up charges, sham trials etc.

The UK Government have failed terribly at understanding how to respond and react to any of this and the way the UK politicians have responded to this has honestly made this entire situation so much worse. How has it become such an awful thing to even consider the thought (that it might be a good idea to calm down on immigration and "asylum seekers" Especially once a nation starts to CLEARLY see issues develop. One of the biggest issues right now that's occurring in the UK and the USA is the people who are born & raised there are deeply struggling to get by but no one is doing anything about it. While at the same time seeing that their nation is providing anyone who shows up from somewhere else with whatever amenities that they need to get by. All while those individuals aren't required to work. Where the people who were born & raised here in no way get similar treatment. In fact they get the gross opposite type of treatment as that and the government thinks nothing will come from that? That someone could only be frustrated by that if they are racist? That is where the UK government and the American government are terribly wrong)
People are frustrated with how much they struggle to get by nowadays.
Sidenote related to current UK & American refugee situations. Anyone on any side should be arrested if they break the law, that shouldn't even have to be said? This isn't about "racism" even tho the UK politicians & media are dead set on that being the reason.. the UK people have been multicultural forever. The American people have been multicultural forever as well. This is the government failing so much. The government is failing to take care of their own people & now they are hyper focusing on these hot button talking points, arresting people for social media comments? They should have come out and made it clear that they will treat anyone from any side with equal response if that person breaks the law but they didn't do that. They have instead come out and publicly stated that they are only considering one side as the bad guys and will only punish one side. How do they think that won't create WAY more division than what little might already have existed??

It's actually insane how much the government & media is coming at this like anyone who is stressed is racist.. Most people are not racist at all and have lived in a multicultural environment most of all their lives and were raised to accept anyone of any backgrounds as long as they are a decent person.. This crap is absolutely Absurd with how many people are so easily convinced a person is racist, or a white person isn't a good person (it's definitely not just because they are white. No way. Totally couldn't be about that)
It's the weirdest thing that we are seeing such a psychotic shift in society right now.. (How hard is it to base our judgment off of: Are they a decent person? Is this a good idea?) lastly, we must stop this guilt trip of people for things that have happened outside of a person's lifetime. A person should be judged based off of how THEY have lived THEIR life. Everything else is out of everyone's control...

The mainstream media does not have a short memory, it has a _selective_ one.

[MrHeinrichMueller]

I come from Germany and here any kind of opinion that is against the establishment is basically labelled "right-wing extremist".

[pandora]

India’s in sooth Asia. Palestine and Israel are in Middle East.

[activeyaw]

I don't think you mentioned it, but the constant stream of hundreds of new arrivals being shipped in every single day and put up in four star hotels really gets the natives worked up too, on top of what you mentioned. It certainly feels like it's all being orchestrated on purpose for whatever reason.

[ErikBramsen]

Civic nationalism is what Britain has enjoyed the last 50 years. How is it working out for you?

[JohnCollins]

I object to the notion that the war on terror ended. It's repercussions are all around.

[pontifex]

"Ethnic nationalism" is redundant, "civic nationalism" is an oxymoron; this is the etymology of the word "nation":

c. 1300, nacioun, "a race of people, large group of people with common ancestry and language, " from Old French nacion "birth, rank; descendants, relatives; country, homeland" (12c.) and directly from Latin nationem (nominative natio) "birth, origin; breed, stock, kind, species; race of people, tribe..." England is called England because it's the land of the Angles, Scotland is the land of the Scots, Finland is the land of the Finns, etc.

The attempt to replace nation-states with mass-migrated, deracinated, multicultural (really, cultureless) purely economic zones is responsible for the chaos.

[ArnoldTohtFan]

Coverage of this by Lotus Eaters and Ed Dutton has been fantastic. Are you subbed to those channels, Rob?

[IvorMektin]

I'm not British but I want to learn more.

[albiuk]

As I get older I feel incredibly lucky to have lived, loved and laughed in the world before 1997.

[TheDrudgenator]

And by Asian: he means middle Asia. Let’s not gaslight ourselves

[tkb]

I find it odd that I heard about the riots but the news here is not saying anything about that attack on the kids.

[simontmn]

Hope you have a licence for that opinion Rob.
