    That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

      We must have read two different articles. Can you quote where in the linked article it said that?

        Oh I don’t know maybe the first three words?

        MONSTERS APPEAL MIGRANT

        Or the next three words that follow

        the MONSTER migrant

        Instead of maybe “the rapist”, no we got to tie in that he is a migrant in all caps, at every possible turn.

        Also further down referred to as

        the MONSTER

        Or

        the migrant

        Oh and also let’s rope in some unrelated burglar who also happens to be a migrant.

        All very easy to spot so I figure you’re not really asking in good faith, just like someone who has an agency in “just asking questions” would do.

          So you believe a child rapist isn’t a monster, and that we aren’t allowed to have heated discourse about the legal loopholes being utilized for foreign criminals to escape justice?

            Nope, not what we were talking about mate. Op said:

            That’s not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it’s outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

            You said :

            It’s not in the article, it’s in the comment you were replying to. What am I missing?

            So don’t try to move the goalposts just because you talked shit, I’m sick of this bullshit.

            We were talking about why a, admittedly monstrous, rapist needs to be used to demonize a whole demographic. You pretended like that wasn’t in the article, I proved it was, that is the fucking conversation we’re having here.
