“Hysterical” Anti-Trump Protesters Claim State Visit Could Lead to British Death Squads

Anti-Donald Trump protesters have been accused of “hysterical scaremongering” after producing a film suggesting the US President’s visit this week could lead to Britain being policed by paramilitary death squads. The Telegraph has more.

In a two-minute video released on social media, the Stop Trump Coalition claimed Mr Trump was “opening the door to global fascism” and said his visit would drag Britain “further into the abyss”.

The group is planning a mass demonstration on Wednesday to coincide with the President’s second state visit and is calling for thousands to take part in a march.

But politicians have warned the group to dial down the rhetoric after it broadcast dystopian fake news reports featuring people being kidnapped and killed on the orders of the Government.

The video is fronted by Zoe Gardner, a seasoned Left-wing campaigner, who tells viewers: “There is a darkness coming. It has already swallowed America and now it is coming for us too.”

She goes on: “On September 17th Donald Trump comes back to Britain and the fight for our future comes to Parliament Square and how our nation reacts that day decides everything about our future.”

The film includes a fake news report suggesting huge England flags with the slogan “Send Them Home” had been hung from Tower Bridge.

It then cuts to a fictional recruitment campaign for the imaginary state-controlled British Defence League (BDL).

A man in paramilitary uniform, with a union flag on his shoulder, says: “Some say woke, we say weakness. They call it diversity, we call it dilution. I fight for the British Defence League now I am asking you, stand with me patriots together keeping Britain pure.”

In a second fictional report, a newsreader fronting a channel called BNN solemnly tells viewers: “Liverpool and Birmingham are in flames tonight as masked BDL officers detain hundreds under the Home Security Act. Ministers say it is to protect so-called ‘real Britons’ but campaigners are saying people are vanishing without a trace.”

Urging people to join Wednesday’s rally, Gardner says: “We have got to show them Britain will never bow to fascism and we do not bow to Donald Trump. We’ve seen the future that they have lined up for us and we say f— that. We are making our own.”

What’s at work here is the iron law of woke projection. The darkness is what the madleft wants to do to us because we refuse to shut up and let our “moral superiors” tell us what to think.

Can they explain how none of that happened under Trump 1.0 and none of it is happening under Trump 2.0 either?
While they are at it, I’m still waiting for news of the Brownshirts marching in the streets in Italy as apparently Meloni is a fascist too. I was in Italy recently and I saw no evidence of that.

Just returned as well. Saw normal people, no black shirts in the streets. Apparently the Rona plandemic lockdown – stab fascism is okay. But a guy like Drumpf cleaning up America, closing the borders, bringing money and jobs into the country, trying to stop WW3 – is a ‘fascist’, as called by the real fascists, the asshats who cheered Rona, BLM and Bidentard.

What a group of idiots these people are.

But despite the consequences (carefully airbrushed out of the news) ‘their side’ was winning. Now the tide is turning and the ‘diplomatic immunity’ of the left activists is being rolled back. Now their pigeons are coming home to roost.

From Uncibal’s latest article:

At the same time, of course, one’s political opponents become not just subjects of one’s hatred but also one’s fear. For, within the woke framing, if those opponents can gain control of the State apparatus, there is nothing stopping them from deploying it exactly as one intends to deploy it oneself – as a weapon.

Will they be prosecuted for pushing misinformation, disinformation and fake news? Is the video being fact-checked by BBC Verify?

Not holding my breath on that!

There’s nothing behind the eyes, just an empty space and a vacuum.

If only it were a vacuum. Sadly, it’s been filled full of rubbish.

Hysterical people should be allowed to vent and rage (with words obviously) as much as they like.

They become tiresome and people quickly switch off.

Indeed and hopefully before they switch off they will note the hysteria and be a little wiser about what’s going on

This woman isn’t hysterical. This is a calculated attempt to hijack the unfortunately never disestablished “We must fight the Nazis who are everwhere!” storyline for her own political goals. Equating so-called “Western, liberal democracy”, something Trump certainly represents, with fascism (all good people must fight against!) is straight from the Marxist playbook. The former eastern block states built a big part of the official legitimation on exactly that. That’s why the Berlin Wall was officially called “the anti-fascist bulwark.”

These people know exactly what they’re doing and why they’re doing in. They also know that they’ll never manage to support their plans with rational arguments. For this, they need violent mobs galvanized by hysterical fears. Like that of an extremely deadly “novel Coronavirus”, in case you might have heard of that.

The only “darkness coming for us” is when the lights go out because our capacity to generate sufficient electricity has been sacrificed on the altar of Net Zero. Or if we let the left-wing loonies continue to erode our right to free speech.

Oh dear, they can’t even get the Union Flag right in the background. If they’re that bothered about the country’s future, you’d think they might notice…

The BDL officer in that video looked cool as hell, I really hope the reality looks like that.

Long live the British Defence League.

The left seem to hate normal people.

Nowadays the left seems to be all about hate.

Bring back peace and love, flowery shirts and casual sex.

Did the film makers borrow one of the TSG goons to pose as a a BDL “soldier?”

I’m sure the MSM will give this Marxist Demo full coverage …. unlike the Unite the Kingdom March. The BBC must be salivating at the opportunity to send 100 “reporters”to cover it.

Hysterical is correct, the video is hysterically funnyIt gave me a good chuckle and will only wind up the knuckle dragging lefties that are on Twatter. The dopey woman does not speak for the vast majority of Britons that oppose the bile she spews
