There is also, blatantly, a need to kneecap the social media companies. I've said this before but: if a platform uses an algorithmic feed then there is an editorial decision being made, and so x, facebook, etc, should be regulated as publishers and legally responsible for every post they publish. So much of this shit is driven by social media shit, by companies using this pretence that they're a neutral platform like royal mail or a telephone company while openly shaping british politics to a trumpist agenda.

The pogroms in Ballymena last year and in Belfast this week are, however, different from what's happened in the past not only because the targets have moved from Irish Catholics to essentially anyone who isn't white, but because for the first time in history the Irish far-right and the British Loyalist far-right are collaborating. Two factions whose ideologies are diametrically opposed have managed to find common ground on a shared belief in the great replacement conspiracy theory after centuries of mutual animosity, and as an Irish person who spent the first twenty years of my life there, that fucking terrifies me. In the past, we were spared the kind of organised fascism that plagued the United Kingdom since the 1930s because of the simple reality that Irish nationalist groups typically leaned left or far-left with right-wing groups existing only on the fringes while British nationalists, which is what so called "loyalists" really are, leaned to the right or far-right with virtually no left-wing fringe at all.
