While police went door to door hunting down those who participated in the anti-migration riots, including those who simply said things online, those committing violent acts as part of the "Muslim Defense League" were left to operate freely. As of this writing, no reports of arrests have come out, and the violence is ongoing. Some videos showed police backing away as shouts of "Allahu Akbar" rang out.

Starmer couldn't find a microphone fast enough to rant about the "far-right," but he has yet to say a word about the Muslim attacks that are ongoing. The chances are that he never will. //

Nuances of this latest situation aside, what this clash of cultures shows is that the UK is no longer a place of equal justice. It's not a place where normal people can speak against the government and expect fair treatment. If you're a Brit on the wrong side of the political spectrum, you will be hunted down in your home for saying something as innocuous as speaking against migration online. If you're an Islamist shouting "Allahu Akbar" while beating people in the streets, you'll be excused and coddled. You may even be showered with taxpayer money. //

Tribalism is the default organizing principle of humanity. Guilt is a fleeting emotion.

The West's, especially America's, experiment with melting-pot multiculturalism is a rare phenomenon in human history. Once we abandoned the ideal of colorblindness and started allowing certain disaffected tribes to assert their tribal identity, it was only a matter of time before the majority tribe's guilt faded, and they began to assert their identity.

If you are under 30 in the West, from the time you were old enough to understand what was happening around you, you have seen tribes assert their tribal identity. Whether it was race riots, Black History Month in school, or the girl in the hijab at your high school, you have watched other groups assert their identity and use it to acquire power.

This is our future.
