Jameela Jamil: “Protecting women and children is always the excuse for violence against people of colour when one of them hurts a white person in the west. All people of colour are scapegoated for the crimes of a tiny minority of individuals.”

She’s not wrong
I was thinking about this while watching True Crime YT videos. All the videos with black suspects have a ton of racist comments under them that extrapolate to claim that all black people are dangerous. But you never see those kinds of generalizations under the many, many videos of heinous crimes by white suspects (though, people will dunk on white women suspects and try to say white men need protection from white women).
It’s like there’s a block that prevents white men from being seen as a collective. It’s crazy to witness
The UK has become a cesspool of blaming POC for everything wrong and ignoring the many crimes committed by white people. Theres been numerous attacks on homes, houses of worship and people themselves but not being reported by MSM of course. If all the POC left, would this country be crime free? Of course not. But they dont really care about the crimes. They dont care about the women or the children. They care only about making Britain white again.

She’s spot on. Absolutely 0 ‘riots’ in response to Stephen McCullagh’s horrific murder of Natalie McNally.
edit to add; Recent research and reports suggest: Northern Ireland may now be the most dangerous place in Europe to be a woman. With domestic abuse rates among the highest across the UK, soaring femicide figures, and a troublingly slow institutional response.
The subtext of these riots is always “we should be the one raping these women, not the foreigners”.
She is right! What are these thugs doing to protect women from other things (read- themselves). I am thinking specifically of the uptick in domestic violence after major football games etc. Their behaviour is abhorrent!
She’s not wrong in any of this, but presumably she’s taking about the north of Ireland the last few days based on comments on the post.
At least 72 women have been murdered here this year alone. Femincide is rampant and every time there’s another horrifying headline, the response seems to be “this is shameful”, no change of action or policy, no thought about why this is such a problem and how to solve it.
**That said**, the riots this week haven’t even *claimed* to be protecting women and girls. It’s online right wing agitators and paramilitaries jumping on an act as violent as it is rare as an excuse for early xenophobia and racism. One month from today, loyalist communities will be lighting bonfires with effigies and flags, and the same sort of rioting (essentially, setting fire to ‘their’ areas and crying that no one wants to invest there).
It’s good to speak up, but idk, maybe someone else from here can weigh in – it feels like classic UK misunderstanding of the north of Ireland in general. Natalie McNally’s murderer was sentenced recently, Jeffery Donaldson’s abuse case is ongoing. None of the people falling for an AI poster about ‘protesting’ is doing this in the name of keeping women safe. It’s just an excuse for racists, and I think it’s unfair to the many, *many* female victim of violence across the UK to conflate the two, even slightly.
In Northern Ireland over the last 2 years there was around 35 women or girls murdered, one being a pregnant woman, all murdered by white men and not a single protest or riot and barely news coverage. You’re far more likely to be beaten, raped or murdered under your own roof by a husband, or family member than any immigrant.
If the UK government can label Palestine Action, in which they arrest old people holding signs, a terrorist organisation they need to start labelling these far right thugs as terrorists along with Nigel Farage, Elon Misk and Tommy ten names Robinson who all flame the fires
The attack on the man was horrific and barbaric but these racist pogroms have got to stop.
Also the irony of all these thugs screaming about foreign invasion on the land of Ireland is just fucking hilarious with half of them claiming to be Irish and the other half claiming to be British after years of the Brits colonising us.
I saw a man punch a woman in the face in Salford during a ‘protect are women and are girls’ event I was walking past. It’s never been about the women, it’s about women as a possession not about us as individuals. A lot of these men see us as possessions and when a person of colour commits a violent act against a white person, it’s as if that person has caused criminal damage to a possession. Instead of supporting the victim, it becomes less about protecting and more about protecting a white man’s “privilege” to attack us first and for his fellow white men to defend him.
It’s always the same shouting about letting in “unvetted” men into Ireland. You know who else is unsettled? All the Irish men who commit the majority of crime against women.
They can never make me hate you

This is my favourite receipt to present when white racist losers try to spread complete falsehoods. White men are ***the only group who are over represented*** per population demographics when it comes to sexual offences against children.
Jameela Jamil always says what I think before I thought it.
When she’s right, she’s right. Australia has a real k”lling women problem, more than one a week in a country of only 28m. It’s always white men k”lling these women and on many occasions their children too, but when… I’m not gonna finish that thought. Let’s just say our country is generally extremely prejudiced towards some ethnicities and very boot-licking towards others.
Not trying to be insensitive with my censorship, I just don’t want to cop a ban.
