Just as a wee aside, this sort of content we are seeing here, this is why the biggest security threat in the UK today is far right terrorism. The creeping normalisation of far right rhetoric is happening right in front of our eyes. And this is basically it. It's the regular insistence that "all ideas are valid" and we should be able to have healthy debate in the "marketplace of ideas".
Then what you end up with is people thinking there's credibility to be found in isolating 2 minutes of Katie ******* Hopkins content that you agree with, and sharing the whole lot.
It's the same tactics as how a Daily Mail reader would tell you they aren't climate change deniers whilst also making light of a 42 degree heatwave in the UK by printing ***** about how we are all snowflakes cos the 70s, or something.....
Honestly, if someone isof the same ilk as a Katie Hopkins, that's their right. Il happily call them out on that, as will many others.
But if you aren't, then you need to both be aware of, and take responsibility for what it means to be sharing her content.
