After Beheading Attempt In Ireland, New York Times Says The Real ‘Violence’ Is From Right-Wingers

The outlet called the protestors in Belfast ‘far-right radicals,’ but called BLM protestors ‘peaceful protestors with “room for rage.”
After a Sudanese national apparently attempted to brutally behead a man in Belfast, Ireland, The New York Times on June 10 claimed the real concern was “anti-immigrant sentiment,” not how the U.K.’s open border policies enabled the attack.
Video from the attack, which went viral on social media, shows the migrant attacking a native U.K. citizen named Steven Ogilvy in an apparent attempted beheading. The New York Times (NYT) article does not describe the attack until four paragraphs in, and does not use the word “beheading” once. The article also buries information about the suspect, including the fact that he was a Sudanese who may have fraudulently claimed refugee status, in the eleventh paragraph.
The NYT decided this story was less about why the perpetrator of this brutal attack was in Northern Ireland, and more about the response of the “far-right,” a group in which the outlet places Elon Musk, who infamously has children with multiple women and supports transhumanism. To the New York Times, the story is that some people took notice of violent crime by criminal aliens. It’s the classic “Republicans pounce” trope that blames the people who notice the negative effects of leftist policies rather than blaming the policies.
According to the NYT, “far-right” figures “spread misinformation and speculation about the attacker online.” Unsurprisingly, the outlet does not elaborate what this misinformation entails.
A Sudanese migrant was able to enter the United Kingdom, claim asylum, and stay in the country long enough to allegedly attempt to behead a native-born citizen. “The right” doesn’t need to invent this story. The facts speak for themselves.
