Racists in the UK are so upset that the Greens beat their beloved Reform in a by-election that they are claiming it's because fundamentalist islamists ... voted Green. 🤦

The narrative is now "These immigrants, coming over here, not adapting to our culture, instead promoting environmental sustainability, social justice, an end to wars, and grass roots democracy!"

@selzero @Geri You have to wonder why they transferred their alliegence from the Labour Party to the Greens.

@woo @selzero @Geri Which "they" are we talking about here? Fundies of any flavour are statistically insignificant, that's why the claim is absurd.

@woe2you @selzero @Geri I don't know the area but I haven't seen any evidence of "Islamic Fundamentalists", only Muslims. I meant 'immigrant communities'. I suspect Labour pretending to be anti-immigration, like racist fundamentalists 'could have' given them a gentle shove towards Greens. I was fairly disgusted to see it and regretted lending Labour my vote. I still got a Tory MP.

@woo @selzero @Geri I reckon Labour's wholehearted support of a genocide of (mostly) Muslims may have also played a part in the Green swing.
