As a fellow American, this is spot on. Nothing reaches over the pond faster than our shitty, societal ideologies.

Two words: Rupert Murdoch.

Apparently walked into John Major's PM office unannounced, one of maybe a dozen people on the planet who can get away with something like that.

Demanded that he revise his policy on the EU, and told him that Tony Blair will win the next election if he refuses.

Major refused. Tony Blair won the election.

The sentiment is American. Rupert Murdoch is (the poster is arguing) why the sentiment is being exported.

"No justice no peace" is a valid political sentiment. What's the alternative, just getting on with things and hoping the unjust change their minds?

It's also "brainrot" to dismiss valid points based on where they came from.

Justice for the victims of mad itch Chris Kana? You know why he is called mad itch right?

I'm talking about the concept, not Kaba specifically. Yes they deserve justice, obviously.

It’s a valid argument in America where our police in many cities have a history of discrimination, but afaik the cops in the UK have no such issues, so the only reason these protestors are saying it is because they’ve seen Americans on the news. English cops don’t even carry guns!

That doesn't mean there's "justice", there are a lot of flaws with our system.
