@BradfordHendrieth [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [50]: @NBCNews Again. She just wants money. Bet that woman who got her wig ripped off has committed worse crimes than the man who ripped her wig off. #BLM and the #woke #leftists that encourage them are a dark problem for society [URL redacted]

Context tweet responding to #NMUSCNBCClarettaBellamy "A woman whose wig was ripped off her head by a man as she was walking in New York City early Monday said she now wants to take legal action. The woman, known online as Lizzy Ashliegh, posted a video on TikTok of an incident that she said took place near Penn Station around 1 a.m., when a man ripped off a turquoise wig from her head. In the video, which had over 500,000 views Wednesday evening, Ashliegh, who is audibly distraught, asks the man, 'For what reason did you take my wig off?' The man appears intoxicated and laughs when he is questioned." https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/new-york-man-fired-woman-accused-ripping-wig-street-rcna87079 #IRLMusicianLizzyAshliegh

Addendum this appears to be the slightly redacted #CharacterisationDerivativeWorkCoOption version of the #MemeHowToRuinACity, the full version has the #OtheringCaricatureSlaveryNWord on the shaker instead simply the letter 'N'. The symbol of #BeliefTheismJudaismStarOfDavid is also visible (as per the circle with the star inside visible on the edge of the sleeve). Assuming this is so, the sum of the collected symbols adds up to the #OtheringHateAntisemitismCaricaturePuppetMaster canard, where in this case supposedly #IdentityJewish people are behind a conspiracy to corrupt cities through promoting #PhenomnMulticulturalism. More directly in terms of the illustration, to transform an (assumed) #PhenomnMonoculturalism.ural society into one based on policies of #PolicyDiversityEquityAndInclusionDEI, which would logically include people with #IdentityAmericanBlackAndAfricanPOC heritage (among others).

Addendum noticeably, such memes generally focus the perpetrators of gun crime while failing to mention a key precondition - that of easy access to firearms as guaranteed by the #LegislationUS1791ConstAmdt2RightToBearArms. #TheoryOfAffordances i.e. guns are lethal devices whose design are intrinsically linked to their violent potential e.g. [academic source] [pdf] Versus #TheoryInstrumentalism 'value neutral' arguments such as those of the #AdvocacyUSNationalRifleAssociationNRA e.g. "guns don't kill people; people kill people" (thereby absolving gun advocates, gun manufactures etc. of any responsibility). #CatchcryGunsDontKillPeoplePeopleKillPeople

Supplementary #MagazineGreenEuropeanJournalAmandaMachin, #MagazineGreenEuropeanJournalNiklasBjurstrom "Far-right parties and leaders from across Europe claim that 'our children' are being threatened by those who are preoccupied with issues such as climate change, gender equality, LGBTQIA+ rights, and colonial history. These actors portray an image of an antagonised nation while simultaneously asserting themselves as the saviours of that nation and casting environmentalists and progressives as its enemies. This 'us' vs 'them' dichotomy can be seen as inevitable in any form of politics, as thinkers such as Chantal Mouffe point out. In the far right's case, however, this construction is presented in highly nationalistic and xenophobic ways where the 'us' is ethnically defined and reified, and the 'them' are racialised others who are aided by treacherous elites. What intrigues and worries us is that, as it brings children into the picture to construct an exclusionary 'us', the far right heightens the ostensible innocence and vulnerability of the nation as well as the apparent ethical righteousness of those who claim to be its protectors. Children, therefore, have become a powerful instrument of the far right." https://www.greeneuropeanjournal.eu/save-our-children-breaking-down-far-right-narratives-around-youth/ #PoliticsFascismNaziNeoFarRightAltRightRadicalRight #IRLPoliticalTheoristChantalMouffe [Wikipedia] #PoliticsNationalismXenophobicNativism #OtheringDiscriminationRacismExclusionary
