Men who commit this kind of violence with this kind of rhetoric are not protecting women and girls; they are trying to legislate which men have the right to harm women and girls (and of course it's men like them and not those other men).
Rebecca Solnit
“More than 700 women have been murdered in the UK since 2020, but we didn’t see those claiming that their actions are about ‘protecting women and girls’ riot over those, because the majority of perpetrators were white.” www.liberalcurrents.com/the-violence...
These riots are about race politics, not concerns rooted in reality.
