There has always been loons but it's now out of hand.Remember "The End of the World Is Nigh" bloke outside Maine Road? Thing is, everyone just laughed at him then, all on his own.

100%. We have a problem of angry, alienated young men being driven into the hands of crackpots and extremists of all stripes, and I think it's the responsibility to create stronger communities that keep people away from the worst parts of the internet. Doesn't really matter whether this **** in Southport was an incel extremist (I think most likely, actually), a religious extremist, or just someone who has been idolizing the Columbine monsters. Ally Fogg (don't know if he posts here, but he's a blue and on BlueMoon podcast sometimes) does some great work on this front: he's a good voice to listen to. Never blames boys and men, but also calls out the problems for what they are.Thinking about this attack more, one thing that seems to have been overlooked by a lot of people in this thread (and the one from yesterday that was locked) is that the overwhelming driver behind attacks like this might not be religion or culture but gender/sex. While not down religious lines, there's one big parallel between the Southport attack and the Arena bomb: they were both carried out by young men targeting events predominantly attended by women and children (or, in the case of the Ariana gig, gays as well).
Whenever attacks like these are carried out, regardless of the reason, how many of them are carried out by women?
Even the other week, the nutter who killed John Hunt's family - he was ex-Army and definitely didn't suffer from the "cultural problems" alluded to in this thread by the likes of @Worsleyweb et al. But he was a rage-filled man with a sexist grudge and crossbow. Last night, 99% of the rioters, men. The Paris attacks, men. 9/11, men. 7/7, men. The Madrid train bombing, men. The Cumbria and Plymouth shootings, men. Every mass shooting you hear about in America has a male perpetrator. The Presidents threatening nuclear wars, men.
Never mind Muslims, maybe something needs to be done about men. I suggest we shut men out of society until we can figure out what radicalises them and get to the root of the problem. Otherwise it might be best to move us all to the Arctic until things calm down. All the big players who stir up hate in response to the attacks, men. Farage, Yaxley-Lennon, Tate. The person arrested for wielding a knife in Southport near the vigil, a man. What is about men that makes us think a violent destiny is the answer to whatever question we have?
The Met says hi:-)I do
Do you really think them sad cunts would fight in a war? They'd be out burgling while you and I were on the front linesWhat we need to sort out all the knobhead men is a jolly good world war.
Ahhh, hang on, Iran on the phone - I'll finish this post later...
