Saw the post requesting info on counter-protests/response to the UTK march yesterday.
Here we go.
Not a racist?
Stand Up To Racism – Instagram
Stand Up Up To Racism – Find your local group
Not a fascist?
Hope Not Hate – Instagram
If anyone is interested, I can put together a more detailed post on different ways to get involved, including if joining a march/protest isn't for you.

ETA: Video Context
Stand Up to Racism counter protestors were dancing to pass the time while being kettled (ie. trapped) in Whitehall for hours by the UTK protestors.

Only 1500, pretty pathetic…
Buzzword bingo
Anti racist and anti fascists don’t wear terrorist scarfs.
There’s a specific anti-Trump one for his arrival on Wed, 5pm at Parliament
Dancing, togetherness and diversity vs. getting drunk and coked up at 11am, pissing on national monuments, and littering the city including leaving beloved flags on the floor for working people to clean up. Hmmmm…
I don’t think the strong left wingers in the UK realise the vast majority of the UK agrees (mostly) with the anti immigration mob.
But that same majority stays quiet because its not a popular opinion.
The more all of this goes on the bigger these “Right wing” crowds grow.
Stop calling concerned people dehumanizing words like ‘fascist’ ‘nazi’ and ‘racist’. ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ springs to mind. Eventually the wolf can appear and you realize your folly too late.
The irony is that racism, fascism, and hate can be found on both sides. Whether that be from White Nationalists or Islamists, Anti Semite or Zionists, Far Right or Far Left.
Each side will claim the other is full of hate, whilst making every excuse possible for people on their side.
Insisting that everyone that disagrees with you is a member of the side who has the monopoly on “hate” will only lead to more extremism, not less.
Pro terrorists too apparently
Is the video supposed to be of the anti-fascist side? The ones wearing scarves worn by a terrorist group?

Haha just fyi for anyone that wants the track Lily Allen – Fuck you

Beautiful
I genuinely hate both the anti-fa and the Tommy Robinsons and low IQ followers of both.
I’d rather be bash my face on the floor repeatedly than be anywhere neither march.
The kids are alright. I’m optimistic for the future once certain generations ease out
A lot of human bots obsessed by scarfs I see

There was a march against antisemitism a week or so ago.

These comments are a cesspool of bots
Protesting has become like going to a football match these days. Left and right are both fucked
You guys never provide arguments, no rational thinking at all. Whenever someone disagrees with you, you call them fascists/racists. This is typical authoritarian thinking.

Wow, don’t know why, but I expected better from this particular sub.
Anyway, the only issue with Stand Up is that they regularly make deals with cops and the establishment, and basically subsumed any actual antifa activity in London, but at least they provide a decent big tent approach.
As for the pretend fence sitters in this group: silence only ever helps the oppressor. Study Chamberlain if you want an excellent example of where appeasement and non-confrontation leads to.
This city has a proud tradition of not giving the fascists any ground, from Cable Street, to Lewisham, Brixton, and the Battle of Waterloo (the 1992 one before someone gets pedantic). Don’t give them an inch.
No Pasaran

This looks way more fun and definitely better vibes. However ideologically, much of this side are pretty awful too and responsible for the rise of the far right in the UK. As they idly sit by with their unearned sense of moral superiority and tolerate the intolerant.

Tragic! 😂
Tradional normal response to hate is an actual dance off.
