"Alt-right" Still Parading Ignorance, Stupidity, Malice, Etc.

That guy is a prize too, but I was thinking of Stephen Crowder. It took me a while to remember.

Crowder is a noxious buffoon, certainly. Kirk on the other hand was a serious cheerleader for white Christofascism who literally said that stoning gay people was 'God’s perfect law' among other telling comments. The piece linked by pErv above gives some idea of who he was.

From the clips, he sounds like another whited sepulchre, and that was the impression my daughter gave me. We have a lot of those, unfortunately.

A week ago c.1200 people protested peacefully in London in direct opposition to Israel's genocide in Gaza, and 890 of them were arrested and changed under terror legislation. This weekend the aforementioned Tommy Robinson organised a UK equivalent of the Charlottesville Unite The Right march, called the Unite The Kingdom march. Among a sea of St George Union, Stars and Stripes, and Trump 2024 flags, speakers encouraged those present to vilify whatever 'other' they can get their hands on.

Far-right London rally sees record crowds and violent clashes with police

More than 110,000 people have taken part in a far-right street protest organised by the activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson, in what is thought to be the largest nationalist event in decades.

Marchers travelled to London by train and coach for a demonstration, which was billed as a “festival of free speech”, but by its conclusion had amplified racist conspiracy theories and anti-Muslim hate speech across Whitehall.

The scale of the protest vastly outgrew police estimates resulting in tense and at times violent clashes between protesters and police.
The Metropolitan police said at least 25 people were arrested and 26 officers were injured, including four who were seriously hurt. Marchers were arrested for a range of offences, including affray, violent disorder, assaults and criminal damage.

The crowds were addressed by Elon Musk, who dialled in via video link and spoke of “the rapidly increasing erosion of Britain”, before calling for the dissolution of the UK parliament.

The French far-right politician Éric Zemmour was also invited to speak. He told protesters they were subject to “the great replacement of our European people by peoples coming from the south and of Muslim culture”, adding that “you and we are being colonised by our former colonies”.

The huge turnout meant attenders could not be contained within Whitehall, the endpoint of the march, where the rally was being held. The swelling numbers resulted in clashes with police with the Met saying officers “faced unacceptable violence” after being “assaulted with kicks and punches. Bottles, flares and other projectiles were thrown.”...

The contrast in the official response has been magnified in my mind by the media's response to the Kirk murder this week. People identifying with the political agenda of avowed white supremacists are referred to as the 'reasonable centre' and 'concerned citizens', while non-violent opposition to a devastating war is categorised as a threat to national security and public safety. Attacks on police by far-right agitators are policed as violent criminality, which they clearly are, but a peaceful sit-down protest opposing a genocide is policed as terrorism.

A common misunderstanding among those who support fascism, or at the very least turn a blind eye to it, is the assumption that they will never be subject to its arbitrary fiats and impositions.
