I have an inherently strong dislike for Englandshire, but I'll give Lineker his due. He speaks his mind clearly and with a level of understanding that few in his country have. He's usually right. This is no exception.

Using Nazi comparisons is probably always wrong.

Supporting Fascist terrorists is ALWAYS wrong, no matter what you think you are doing "good" with it.

Resisting oppression is morally right.

But inciting violence is not.

Who's inciting violence?

In Kneecap’s own words, "Statements aren't aggressive, murdering 20,000 children is though."

Which is a dumb thing to say.

There is such a thing as incitement to violence.

One aggression is not made better by another aggression.

I’m not condoning violence. I’m calling out hypocrisy and disproportionality.

And yet that’s how the British and American governments always operate. Libya, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan… all ‘liberated’ with bombs and troops. But when it’s a wealthy ally committing the atrocities, aggressive language in response is called ‘incitement.’
