Tommy Robinson and Israel’s Flag Day – two sides of the same fascism
The ugliness of modern far-right politics increasingly looks the same no matter the flag being waved — grievance, ethnic supremacy, humiliation rituals and the deliberate dehumanisation of minorities packaged as patriotism.
Look at how ugly this is from the Tommy Robinson parade…

Dehumanisation is always the warning sign
…it’s two sides of the same fascism.
I’m against all forms of fascism, from forced medication to ethnic cleansing. But I’m all for peaceful protest even if your cause is odious. Suppression of legal free speech and legal protest is fascism.
The dog whistle is so loud, it’s just a normal whistle.
