Islamophobia has 'seeped into the public consciousness' as British Far-Right movement

It's funny, the moderate right in the UK are attacking the alt-right more than the left.

Kudos to the Telegraph again.

Last week five mosques in Birmingham were attacked with sledgehammers, the latest in a string of anti-Muslim attacks over the past several years.

Home Office data shows that there were 94,098 hate crimes recorded in England and Wales in 2017-18, including a 40 per cent surge in a religiously-aggravated hate crime.

If it’s as you say, I love it

The Telegraph is certainly after the Incels and Nazi's more than anyone.

Don't be modest, we all know you got after Incels and Nazis as much as they do

It’s his boogeyman

I won't lie Bentley and Broly; they do disturb me, I was born less than 22 years after WW2 it was all my parents generation talked about.

Reading a book called "You Gentles" by Maurice Samuel is kind a surreal experience.

Published in 1924. The Nazi party rises in 1920. All the references to anti-semetism predate WWII, yet talk of people in Germany shouting to "kill the Jews".

But I do think London takes things too far. Now it's hate speech to even criticize Islam, if I'm to believe what I've read.

Well wrong is wrong. Moderates on either side should call out bad behavior.

Source is suspect, but if true this is insane.

Both criticisms of Islam, AND rejections of criticisms of the West being rejected, are considered "Islamophobia".

I don't. I don't want the destruction of property or the harming of innocents. I strongly oppose these types of things. It's an affront to the most important elements of liberty.

I was listening to an evolutionary biologist and an anthropologist, and I think a major issue is that people think this is an alt-right movement. It's not. Extreme islamophobia and racism, is a human condition and there is a strong biological incentive for this mentality to be triggered.

Multiculturalism, mass immigration, deteriorating national borders, a weak economy AND a strong mainstream, government clampdown on the discussion and the negative consequences of immigration and/or Islam is like the perfect backdrop for the Fourth Reich. The shit is terrifying imo. Human history is literally a repeating cycle of this happening.

I recently realized that this is not something that can be isolated or...shamed into obscurity? Here's a hard, cold fact: People prefer homogeneous societies. This is our default setting. I think a big mistake recent politicians have made is ignoring this, and acting like welcoming people of all different creeds is not only the right thing to do, but the obvious thing to do. I think this is very dangerous and underestimates the strong foundation Western societies had to incorporate different cultures. This is not me defending this problem, biology is amoral from my understand. I think...we need to constantly point to a problem, and be cognizant of it, so we can address it.

As someone with degrees in molecular biology and genetics I disagree about racism being biological.

Do you have any sources to point me to supporting your stance? I knew you had a degree in the field, so I'm curious.

He explained it as there is a strong biological function for the propagation of genes most like your own. Maybe, I'm phrasing his interpretation incorrectly?

As for genes like your own, the phenotype is not genotype. The germline you have may be far more similar to someone with completely different skin colour to you than the same eye colour.

Additionally, genes don't really work as you get taught in high school, e.g. recessive and dominant versions most genes work in conjunction with other genes that have roles in other functions, some clusters may confer an advantage in one expression and a disadvantage in another capacity. Since the genome project we add up a some total giving a genetic potential or quotient of an individual. This is mostly germline and unseen.

Samuel Morton was the dipshit who came up with Scientific Racism. It's wholly discredited, but dipshits with agendas bring it up often.

Thank you, this is what I like about this place. 👆

I will research more thoroughly. My field is finance. I'm just trying to better understand human nature, and how we can prevent the worst of it from being expressed.
