Brazil tells nationals in the United Kingdom to be cautious

Brazil’s Foreign Affairs Ministry has advised Brazilians in the United Kingdom to take precautions due to the recent wave of anti-immigration protests in the country.
Brazilian diplomacy issued a statement urging nationals to “follow local authorities’ safety recommendations, avoid crowds and protests, and stay updated through local media.” It told Brazilians in distress to seek aid from the country’s consulates in London and Edinburgh.
The United Kingdom saw a wave of protests in a dozen cities over the weekend, set off by a deadly stabbing rampage and a disinformation campaign aimed primarily at immigrant Muslims. Tensions remain high in the country, and the wave of violent unrest and disorder continued on Monday.
Nearly 400 people have been arrested since the rioting began, the BBC reported.

Elon Musk behaves more like a James Bond villain all the time. His latest hobby is to stoke race riots in the UK.
Elon Musk Won’t Quit Trying to Stoke Civil War in the U.K.
He fled from South Africa the same year that President F.W. de Klerk announced reforms which would lead to Black majority rule. He has a racial chip on his shoulder. His silly panic about "population collapse" has more to do with the population of white people leveling off than any real danger of human extinction.
If Elon Putz won't properly moderate his platform then the UK government should do it for him and make him pay for it.
The only time I see Twitter/X posts is when somebody sticks them in an article. Occasionally I'll click an unlabelled link to Twitter/X but then quickly close the window after noticing my error; I then delete any data and history for the pluto-fascist platform from my browser.
MAGA crony Elon Putz deserves no help from me – and you should not be lending him your eyeballs or data either.
If you think megalomaniacal multi-billionaires already have too much influence in politics, work to defeat Weird Donald Trump.

Harry making controversial statements about British social unrest and online censorship: Why it is dangerous for them to have titles by u/snappopcrackle
Harry making controversial statements about British social unrest and online censorship: Why it is dangerous for them to have titles From the Daily Mail: "Prince Harry takes veiled swipe at Elon Musk after Southport riots: saying 'what happens online transfers to the streets in minutes. People are acting on information that isn't true....In an ideal world those with positions of influence would take more responsibility."The British family is supposed to represent all Brits and avoid divisive topics, and Harry is starting to take sides. (The riots occurred because 3 girls were killed at a dance class by a non-indigenous Brit). There have been race riots in Britain going back at least to the 1970s, long before social media and the internet were invented. So saying that they wouldn't have happened without the internet is a stretch.This post is not about the riots or their cause (so please no debate about them), but that Harry is wandering into the murky territory of political speech, choosing sides and pouring gasoline onto an already volatile situation. People are being imprisoned in Britain for tweets, even for sharing tweets, while rapists and murderers get let go early. The country is on edge and he is using it to promote his non-royal money-making endeavours. This is why they can't have titles. If they were saying these things as Mr and Mrs Windsor, no problem. But they are saying them as Prince/Duke and Duchess while on a pseudo royal tour to a foreign nation....It is only a matter of time before he says something that will go over the line and trigger a diplomatic emergency or cause outrage and further unrest in the UK or Commonwealth. Not everyone wants to live in a despotic tyranny where the leaders take "responsibility" by shutting down speech and the right to protest government policy.Also there is the hypocrisy that they want to crack down on controversial speech by the general public, while using controversial speech themselves. https://ift.tt/9lmiXR5 post link: https://ift.tt/UidtYM6 author: snappopcrackle submitted: August 16, 2024 at 09:56AM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

2024, and we have the far right committing pogroms against Muslim communities, setting fire to hotels housing asylum seekers, and attacking random people of colour in the street.
The deep, filthy hatred required to believe this abhorrent behaviour is acceptable or necessary is incomprehensible.
It’s sickening. It’s inhuman. I am ashamed.
Are we, as humanity, just doomed to keep cycling through the same hatreds, the same incredible intolerances of anyone not exactly like us, for all time? Will we ever fucking learn?

Doldrey — Only Death Is Eternal (Iron Lung)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f78f09de2bacbcb47dc5846cbe87cbd1/93cc93e2e0efbfb6-f3/s540x810/a352e3cde7c5c7ae00f6f9931b1db4c437c66e52.jpg)
Only Death Is Eternal, the new tape from crusty death metal band Doldrey, is among the most thrilling, hugely satisfying releases from the metal underground so far this year. Unstaunched energy, massively chunky riffage, a general sensibility that’s as nasty as it is raw and exciting — all those things characterize Doldrey’s sound more or less adequately, but we’ve heard those words before, and none of them captures what’s so engaging and immediate in these songs. The sorta-stale typicality of those descriptors is complemented by the symbolics of the band’s output; all the muscled warriors and carnage in the titles and j-card art operate somewhere very remote from our everyday realities. But somehow Only Death Is Eternal is right there, fitted into the most aggro contours of the current conjuncture. It’s a terrific record.
Likely Doldrey would be wise to approach the ideological problematics of our social moment with some tentative, distant maneuvering. The band is from Singapore, and while young men are no longer subject to arrest if they wear their hair a bit long in that city-state, its dominant culture and legal-juridical apparatus still skew strongly toward the conservative. Death metal and especially crust (with that subgenre’s strong orientation toward lefty radicalism) are likely perceived as expressions of undesirable politics, and of aberrant personality.
Hence, perhaps, Doldrey’s semiotics, most of which can be traced to Kentaro Miura’s manga Berserk. (Doldrey, I am told, is the name of a fortress important in one of the long-running comic’s early narrative arcs.) That explains the swords-and-sorcery proclivities of the band’s album art and the overheated language of some of its song titles: “Blood of the Serpent,” “Torture Paradise,” “All Is Hell.” Those read like a middle-schooler’s sense of the profound, or of the profoundly brutal, if that middle schooler had been brought up on a steady diet of Conan the Barbarian, Moorcock’s Eternal Champion stories and, well, Berserk.
The nerd-factor associated with piles of mass-market paperbacks and endless trips to the comic book shop is effective cover. And maybe it’s not really (or not just) cover. Berserk’s most emphatic symbolic element is its pervasive and hyper-graphic violence, some of which has disturbing scope and awfully imagined cruelty. Doldrey’s music taps into some of that intensity, especially in the heaviness of its death metal buzz and thunder. Check out the middle section of “Moral Decay” or the last third of the title track. Still got all your teeth? Better turn it up louder. And try not to think about ongoing genocidal wars or immiserating modes of human exploitation when you do so. Good luck with that.
Beyond the implied fascination with bloodshed and the nods to Swedeath unpleasantness, it’s the crusty stuff that lifts the record into the musical midnight sun. This reviewer loves the forty or so seconds of flat-out intensity in the middle of “All Is Hell” (beginning just after the guitar solo) and the opening 90 seconds of “Societal Machine.” You can just about smell the filthy denim and feel the greasy leather, all crowding into a moldy basement space. And in that crush of bodies, you’re happy about it all: the smell, the feel, the sense of being among like-minded freaks. Allies, as it were.
None of that will dispel the nightmare that is 2024’s ongoing tilt toward fascism, a mind-boggling combo of scenes as awful as the race-rioting in the UK and as stupid as Hulk Hogan ripping open his tee shirt on the RNC podium. Berserk? Yes, but also all too real. Doldrey has our soundtrack ready.

Elon Musk v. Sir Keir Starmer
TW: SA, gr*oming, st*bbing, child ab*se
WORD COUNT: 2230 words
Between New Year’s Eve and a week into the 2025, (we’re off to a great start, politically, truly), Elon Musk, Trump’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency/Lap dog) started beef with Sir Keir Starmer, the left-wing (Labour) Prime Minister of the UK, demanding for a general inquiry on a gr*oming s*xual exploitation scandal during the time Keir Starmer was the head of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) between 2008 and 2013, as he refused to prosecute a mass r*pe scandal, and Starmer accuses him of spreading “misinformation”.
Let’s get into it.
Now, it’s important we get some context on Elon Musk’s and Sir Keir Starmer’s ongoing political beef before Donald Trump was voted to be the 47th President of the United States to get the full scope and to help you deliberate the validity of their statements.
I’m trying to make sure this is as unbiased as possible.
I mean, my opinion will be injected here and there, but the facts are facts, so you’re free to disagree with me.
You’re the judge, I guess.
Context:
Their beef began in during the summer with the far-right riots that took place over the summer in England and Northern Ireland in response to the Southport st*bbing at the Taylor Swift themed dance studio, which killed 3 children, and injured a further 10 people, 8 of whom were children on the 29th of July 2024 by a now 18-year-old Axel Rudakubana who’s now been charged with 3 counts of murder, 10 counts of attempted murder, and a separate t*rror charge.
As he should, that boy is an absolute demon and I pray he burns in hell for all of eternity-
Anyway-
Because the perpetrator was a British-born Black Muslim (and is connected with Islamic terrorist group al Quaeda, hence the t*rror charge), the far-right weaponised his race and his faith and, as of 30th September 2024, 1,280 people were arrested over the summer and a further 796 charged for their involvement. An estimated 29 anti-immigrant Islamophobic racist riots took place across 27 cities across the UK, including the attacking of mosques, hotels housing asylum seekers, and the vandalism of businesses owned by people of colour. And a lot of these arrests (I couldn’t find specific numbers) were on the basis of they were provoking violence on social media.
And this ‘social media’ included X, formerly known as Twitter (but I’m probably going to end up calling it X because it’s faster to type). You know - the one that, according to an EU investigation, has the most misinformation out of all social media platforms because Elon Musk’s fact-checking is “Community Notes”, and doesn’t seem to give a single damn about the pro-Russia, neo-Nazi, anti-immigrant propaganda running wild on an app he runs?
Yeah. That one.
Anyway - Starmer called out “large social media companies and those who run them” for allowing violence to be stirred up without consequences online when “it is happening on your premises, and the law must be upheld everywhere”. He didn’t even mention Elon Musk. And this billionaire literally nobody summoned whose opinion is damn invalid because the man isn’t even British, let alone a man who’s been known for being a decent human being - and he starts going off on X like someone said his name.
It’s like when Kendrick accused Drake of being a pa*dophile and Drake started talking about Millie Bobby Brown like he mentioned her.
Like…? Sir, nobody mentioned anything about Millie Bobby Brown
…
BUT SINCE YOU GOT SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT HER, LET’S TALK ABOUT IT-
We move-
He starts talking about “two tier” policing, suggesting that the police were being kinder to left-wing and Islamic protesters than White working class ones.
Well, if the White working class ones are terrorising asylum seekers and spreading far-right propaganda, then why would any decent police officer be kind to them, Mr. Musk???
On the 4th of August 2024, Elon Musk posted a video of the riots and claimed that “civil war is inevitable” claiming “if incompatible cultures are brought together without assimilation, conflict is inevitable”.
Assimilation meaning the process through which individuals and groups of differing heritages acquire the basic habits, attitudes, and mode of life of an embracing culture.
So… basically, he believes it's absolutely impossible for people who don't share the same opinion to not try and actively cause harm to each other, and believes that the rioting is the fault of the immigrants' into moving into a country that isn't theirs in hopes for a better life without wanting to conform their authentic selves to "fit in" with the predominately White crowd?
I think this man’s missing the fact that the boy who committed these crimes isn’t even an immigrant, so I’m not sure what other culture this man thinks Axel was experiencing other than British culture.
And when Starmer said, “we will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on Muslim communities”, and Musk said, “shouldn’t you be worried about attacks on all communities?”
Well, sir, are all communities under attack right now?
Yes. Every minority group. By you.
Why else would we defend them?
And he kept making comments like this over the summer comparing Britain to the Soviet Union because a man was arrested for 6 months for insinuating violence on Facebook, posting a Family Guy meme, starting an entire hashtag (#TwoTierKier) as if this was some kind of joke to him. As if the far-right isn’t a serious threat to democracy.
He also said that “civil war is inevitable” and Downing Street responded saying there is “no justification” for those types of comments, and do you know what? I agree. The English Civil War of 1642–1651, killing 200,000 people, which is, proportionally, the same amount as the amount of people killed in WW1. The American Civil War was one of the biggest loss of American life, around 620,000 people dead as a result, so civil war is not something to joke about.
I know Britain doesn’t have a Pledge of Allegiance, and we all absolutely hate on the monarchy (because they’re redundant autocratic pricks who add zero value to our country, I’m sorry, but it’s true), but we, as a nation, are stronger than some racists. Our government is stronger than that, our institutions are stronger than that, and, more importantly, the people are stronger than that. And comments like that are so degrading and disrespectful to Britain as an entire country, and it shows how little he actually values us as a nation. So, no, I won’t take any notes on my country from a man who loves to hate on us for no reason.
Gro*ming Scandal
So what’s going down right now? Why does Elon Musk have the Prime Minister of the UK’s name in his mouth right now?
The current situation is, the new leader of the Conservative Party (the centre-right political party in the UK) Kemi Badenoch called for a general inquiry in child gr*oming gangs as she declared 2025 “must be the year victims get justice”, and, yeah, as a woman myself, I support this.
Until you remember the specific scandal she’s referring to.
The scandal at hand involved 1,400 children were subjected to s*xual exploitation between 1997 and 2013.
But what did this have to do with Keir Starmer? He wasn’t even an MP at that point.
Well, Keir was the head of the CPS, an independent body that deliberates chances of conviction and public interest to decide whether a case is prosecutable, between the years 2008 and 2013, becoming the MP of Holborn and St. Pancras in 2015, and he was criticised for a decision not to proceed with the prosecution of a specific case from Rochdale.
The Rochdale case is complicated, and you can see the entire timeline here, but in summary, in 2018 20 men were convicted of 120 charges of r*pe against 15 girls and sentenced to a total of 221 years behind bars (AS THEY SHOULD), and that amount has increased. As of 2021, the amount of men has increased to 41. And Sir Keir Starmer didn’t see a chance for prosecution as the main victim was “unreliable” and was criticised for it following the investigation over the years 2008 and 2009, which was later overturned by Nazir Afsal (appointed by Sir Keir Starmer) the same year he was the Crown Chief Prosecutor (who responded to Elon Musk on X) in 2011, and led to their eventual prosecution over the next decade.
Although Sir Keir Starmer didn’t directly address the Rochdale case, he changed the CPS’s approach to SA cases. It was previously considered impossible to bring a case against child s*xual exploitation if victims did not report the crime right away, used drugs and alcohol, or dressed or behaved in a certain manner. He revised the guidance to take into account all of those factors, as well as a child's maturity level.
(Basically, if they were “asking for it”).
And as far as CPS records go (so back to 2007) thanks to Keir Starmer, the UK has achieved some of the highest prosecutions against the s*xual abusers of children. The peak under his time as the Head of the CPS was 4,194 between April 2010 and March 2011. As of 2024 there were 419,401 prosecutions – 4.3% higher than in 2022/2023 and in 2023/2024 there were 347,005 convictions – 4.6% higher than in 2022/2023.
I’m not trying to pretend the child s*xual abuse is invisible or super easy to get a prosecution for, or even that justice is consistently being served. But what I’m trying to say is that under the new revisions, it’s now easier to prosecute and get convictions under the new revisions done by Sir Keir Starmer, and you can’t say that he doesn’t care about victims. Yes, the declination of giving the victims of the Rochdale scandal is insanely controversial. Maybe the guidance made it impossible to get a prosecution at that point? I’m not entirely sure.
But since this specific case - the Rochdale case - has caused 10 different inquiries, so God knows why they're calling for an 11th one.
Anyways-
For some reason, Elon Musk is accusing the government of “covering up these crimes”, which is funny, because most of the 21st century (as in literally since 2010), the UK scene has been dominated by the Conservative Party for the past 14 years until the 4th of July where everything changed, and Elon Musk hasn’t said a single thing about it as if they aren’t also kind of complicit because they never addressed it. So that takes away from the validity of his statement because we are all very well and fully aware Musk would use any opportunity to criticise left wing politicians.
And that’s rich.
Considering his bestie-boo’s conviction as a r*pist, and dozens of allegations which could make him a serial one at that (ALLEGEDLY. DON’T COME FOR ME.), you wouldn’t imagine - no, you couldn’t imagine - this man being ‘so passionate’ about the safety of women.
And also advocating against abortions.
…
This man might actually kill me, I won’t lie-
He’s calling out Jess Phillips (The Minister of Safeguarding) for “shameful conduct” saying that it was Keir Starmer’s fault that “quarter of a million were - and still are - being systematically r*ped by migrant gangs in Britain” and this is proved by the fact her refusal to “investigate the r*pe gangs as that would lead to the obvious blaming of Sir Keir Starmer”.
To make extraordinary allegations, you need extraordinary evidence.
And the fact that Jess said “no” to the 11th inquiry on this same case is not extraordinary evidence.
He talked about how migrants are r*ping young White girls, and he's right, it is horrible that this is happening, but if anyone wanted to talk about the fact that 23.4% of British Black women had been raped in their lifetime compared with 15.4% of White women, he would start using the word "everybody" because he doesn't want to hear the truth of the matter.
He further called her (Jess Phillips) a “r*pe g*nocide apologist”, which is just… sick, honestly.
It’s like he’s just learned a new word so he’s using it in every context available to him, and it’s sick and disgusting and vile-
YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT G*NOCIDE?
YOU’RE TEAM ISRAEL YOU B*STARD!
We move-
Sir Keir Starmer has responded to these saying “those who are spreading lies and misinformation far and wide as possible, they’re not interested in victims. They’re interested in themselves” and I genuinely could not agree more.
I’m not Sir Keir Starmer’s biggest fan. His economic policies have my eyes twitching a little bit, I won’t lie. But I’m so glad he’s not tolerating this disrespect from Elon Musk and his group of goons that are just trying to launch the country in disarray to allow the far-right to take root within our nation the way it’s sweeping over the continent right now because of the dissatisfaction left-wing politicians have given their people and how desperate people are for a solution which allows for the perfect conditions for extremism to take root.
Final Thoughts:
Wow.
First official blog post!
Thank you so much for reading if you got this far and I hope I see you in the next issue.
Love, Eddie 🖤

What race checkpoint? The uk doesn't not have race problems but it's a stretch to call it one of the most racist countries in the world.
You! With a seemingly genuine question:
Quite frankly it is not a stretch, it is an understatement to call the country which is responsible for most of the worlds colonialism (which requires endless racism for its endless expansion) was so racist it segregated AFRICA, is the reason we even HAVE an Israel to protest against (bc they didn't wanna take in the Jewish refugess but were perfectly fine striking a deal to sacrifice Palestinians), was a huge factor in the creation of the transatlantic slave trade, and is quite literally the parent country of the United States of endless genocide one of the most racist countries on earth.
Racism against Indians (India, not incorrect term for indigenous people) is particularly bad in the UK, India being one of the many regions the UK has terrorized with racialized violence and oppression. This especially includes Desi people.

Blame It On The Poor Immigrant
The conversation among my work crew is a fairly good reflection of the average discursive exchange happening around the nation at the moment, I reckon. Dressed as we are in high viz gear and steel capped boots ensconced in our work ute on the way to the site. Smoko ramps up with the news of the day and plenty of opinions. One of my erstwhile colleagues, a migrant from the old country, was voicing her support for those kicking up a stink in Britain. Blaming it on too many immigrants coming into the country and receiving special treatment to the detriment of those who really belong there. Blame it on the poor immigrant. Arnold Rasnick, Virginia-Pocahontas Coal Company by U.S. National Archives is licensed under CC-CC0 1.0
Revoking The Commonwealth
This is a popular theme here, there and everywhere, it seems. The cost of living and housing crises are biting a lot of working people on the bum at the moment. Blame it on the new arrivals is a perennial sentiment, especially when they have different coloured skin and look different. The thing about Britain is that for centuries the old empire was out and about taking stuff from lands abroad and enriching itself. Colonising places and imposing imperial rule upon their populations was their main game. Some of those coloured folk, their descendants anyway, have come to the United Kingdom to make it their home. Pakistani’s, West Indian’s, African’s and plenty from other spots too have settled in England. It might be convenient to have a very short memory but there are consequences to historical actions.

Righteous Racists Blaming People Of Colour
The race riots have been fuelled by misinformation and lies put about on social media by far right groups and racist individuals with large followings. Andrew Tate, Laurence Fox, Elon Musk and the other fascists pulling the strings. The horrendous stabbing murders of 3 girls and 8 others with knife wounds in Southport were immediately and falsely attributed to a Muslim refugee. In fact, this mentally ill young guy was born in Britain but was of the wrong coloured skin for many of these patriotic Brits online. Hundreds of angry righteous blokes have gone on a rampage attacking refugee centres and mosques around the country. The police have copped it in their attempts to defend innocent people and maintain law and order. This is not really about the murders of innocent kids; it is about venting rage and frustration for its own sake. There is a surfeit of violent passion being whipped up by social media and the culture wars happening right now. We are all being screwed by our economies and big business these days. Most folk don’t know who to take it out on and are being manipulated into blaming the state. The state has been sucked dry by private corporate interests called private equity under the banner of neoliberalism. Their political allies hide behind bullshit smoke screens like immigration, LGBTQI gender issues, and the anti-woke puppet show. Cowards and bullies like to punch down upon weaker victims like refugees and trans people, they hardly ever take on the real people who are stealing their lunch. Downward envy is encouraged by the authoritarian right wing parties and the Murdoch press. Divide and conquer by getting people to fight amongst themselves whilst the wealthy dance on our heads is the order of the day. “Nursing leaders have expressed their horror at racist violence across the UK, as two Filipino nurses have been among the targets of far-right rioters. Riots first broke out in Southport, Merseyside last Tuesday (30 July) after far-right agitators began a misinformation campaign on social media falsely claiming the perpetrator of a mass knife attack on a group of children in the town the previous day was a Muslim.” - (https://www.nursingtimes.net/news/leadership-news/filipino-nurses-attacked-as-nhs-community-condemns-racist-riots-05-08-2024/) Jeff Bezos by U.S. Air Force is licensed under CC-CC0 1.0 Identity Politics Playing You For A Fool Identity politics is smoke and mirrors, it is a scam perpetuated upon those who don’t bother to look into things. Here is a tip, much of the stuff that enrages you online is BS. It is purposely designed to provoke you and get you losing your shit and not thinking straight. Demonising gay and trans people, demonising immigrants and refugees, these are not the people getting rich at your expense. Wake up sunshine! Dig a little deeper and don’t believe everything you read online. There are people like Rupert Murdoch making money out of your rage. There are people in Russia misinforming you for their own nefarious designs. There are populists wanting power who are promising you they will make it all better – they won’t. Maybe spend a little less time in the gym and try exercising your brain instead. Ask yourself the question – who benefits? This is the key to every investigation. You know if they kicked out every migrant and every gay person you would still have the same problems. It is a scam. These poor people are not taking your piece of the pie. It is the billionaires and their underlings gobbling up the pie at your expense. It is always the same old story, nothing ever changes.
