Malaysia has become the first country to issue a safety warning to its citizens about travel to the UK due to anti-immigration protests and riots.
The south-east Asian country’s ministry of foreign affairs published an alert on Sunday advising Malaysians living in or visiting the UK to “stay away” from protest areas and “remain vigilant”.
I’d thoroughly agree with this. Heck, I’m a white British male and these riots make me fearful. Fuck this whole situation, man.
are they blaming all brown people for the stabbings? what do they think they’re going to accomplish?
what do they think they’re going to accomplish?
Smash stuff up, scare minorities. I don’t think they have put much thought into it.
what do they think they’re going to accomplish?
Nothing
do they think?
No

If I’m only taking the word of commenters in the news and social media, the videos of people interviewed… It’s “Immigrants”.
That depends on what they consider an immigrant, which very often extends to anyone non-white.
what do they think they’re going to accomplish?
Terrorism.
What an absolute embarassment.
Coincidentally, a friend of mind’s grandfather was Malaysian and she was already scared to go out. I’m definitely not sending this to her.
Probably not an unreasonable fear at the moment?
It’s all understandable - although the violence is relatively isolated, I imagine it can be tense on the streets at the moment. So I can see why anyone would be worried, especially if you are a woman of colour. I’m not sending her that report because I don’t want to add to her anxiety at this time.
Is there any outlet providing aggregated information about all the riots so far? I’d like to find out more but naturally " UK riots" just brings up the most recent event because of how media works
Parry shield. I wonder what the riposte animation is like (probably smol club).
