Politicians and media outlets seem happy to fuel the hate-filled ideologies of a tiny minority, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

Mohammed Saleem was murdered by a terrorist, and yet you’ve probably never even heard of him. It was April 2013, and the 82-year-old was walking home from evening prayers at a mosque in Small Heath, Birmingham. A Ukrainian neo-Nazi terrorist – who had bombed three mosques – stabbed him three times from behind.

Against loony lefties like you!

Code for - 'why don't people believe I was attacked?' Because there isn't a scratch on you, perhaps?

I see the outrage all the time - how did you miss it?

This is why Owen Jones speaks out against attacks on feminists and their allies, and against the rise of sexist ideas and values in their latest guise, right?

Recently Owen Jones was the victim of a violent attack. He has subsequently blamed media figures for inciting violence. What is his own record on the issue?

Don't recall you expressing outrage over Antifa's violence, so ...

I understand tedcruz jaketapper popehat and realDonaldTrump are outraged... at the people trying to stop it

The left violence is the only one on the rise.

So you only noticed it after it happened to you! In the meanwhile for over three years EU citizens have been subjected to horrific attacks and bullying whilst living in the UK. Black people and Asians for even longer. I don't recall hearing a peep from Mr Owen.

Does the Guardian ever print anything that has any resemblance to the truth? It shows how Marxists just do not live in the real world. It needs a billionaire to cover the millions of pounds lost every year so the rag can continue to pump out it's Marxist propaganda.

Believe me, we’re all quietly seething whilst making our avocado on toast

The outrage is in the Guardian every issue, because they see any violence as far right, almost all people who do not share your far left dogma are not far right or indulged in violence of any kind

Free anders breivic

You mean like the outcry over the El Paso shooter compared to the silence over the Dayton shooter? How about the focus on far-right rallies whilst ignoring Antifa violence? The 'far-right' gets more than enough coverage, I think instead that the focus should be on the 'far-left'.

You calling everything 'far-right', so we just stopped listening.

Antfia

🤣🤣🤣😏another ridiculous piece of propaganda

It’s not on the rise & yet there’s constant fearmongering & gaslighting going on about it

Owen Jones condoned the burning alive of Winnie Mandelas opponents. DavidLammy said he 'would pour whatever was at hand' over any white supremacist. Get a grip it's far left and far right. But you associate anyone who isn't far left as far right. You're a propaganda machine.

No it isn't stop lying as if it does increase we won't believe you. Crying wolf has consequences.

Because it's not an action, it's a REaction to the biggest influx of alien cultures since world war two, a social experiment in 'multiculturalism' taken place on us all. Because the government place these people amongst the poorest of our own, the door opened by your Labour Owen.

Far right violence pales in comparison to the leftist Antifa terrorist mob. AntifaDomesticTerrorists

Right now, the far right is in government, and therefore, every time someone like Manshaus or Breivik 'heeds the call' the Powers That Be give off an obligatory 'condemnation', stay silent for a while until it blows over, and then the rhetoric of hate is back in full vigour.

It confuses the issue when your outrage is a mannifesto for the political left. Join the correct ideological position. Conservatives don't condone the far right either and these acts of violence aren't political vindication which it seems they are being used as.

There will definitely more violence! U incite violence in Other countries and it will surely backfire

The way the left has behaved from the referendum threatening everything from medical supplies to doctors, farming to our food,travel to our flights,security to ww3 and calling us everything under the sun because we dont like what a trade body is turning our nation into

Absolutely right. Approximately over 3500 far right Islamists under 24hr surveillance.

I was in Norway on the first anniversary of that tragedy. How do you dare to use the many victims of that crime in order to promote your hateful agenda? We are still waiting for the CCTV evidence. You will look silly very soon.

You blame the psychotic surge of knife crime in London on austerity. The phantom rise of the far right must surely be due to the same thing.

OwenJones84 It's in the same place your outrage is when people you disagree with get attacked 👍

All violence is on the rise so stop with your bullshit news

July, there were 71 Islamic attacks in 20 countries, in which 604 people were killed and 835 injured. Normal people have a right to be outraged, yet, there are those who, out of self interest would brand them as 'far right'. WHY?

There is no outrage, because it is not on the rise. If the incidents that you mentioned had happen in the space of a year, there may have been some concern, but we are talking about four incidents over a five year period. Those kinds of statistics fly under most people's radar.

SASam1714 Spain...

Jo Cox ☑️ Anders Breivik ☑️ Christchurch ☑️ Trump ☑️ My own scrapes and cuts from a scuffle ☑️

Where is the evidence of you being attacked by the 'far right'?

Now do Antifa.

It was funny when the police flipped out when they saw Black Panthers with legal firearms.

In a week when a Muslim tried hack a copper to death and an Afghan asylum seeker was jailed for stabbing English people, only Owen Jones could write an article about how minorities are under threat.

Prejudice. It's not going to magically disappear. I saw 4 students were shot and wounded in the US last night. Where's the outrage? Imagine if the shooter had shouted Allahu akbar - imagine the outrage then.

Far-left violence intimidations & harassments have been ignored that's the reality. I've been living in the UK 3 decades but far-right incidents are arbitrary capricious & sporadic but far-left ones are systematic malicious because they knew media gives amnesty of crimes.

Will you be dedicating an article to Antifa too? About time there was coverage on these far left domestic terrorists.

So all the knife crime is London can be blamed on the far right? What a ridiculous headline

Owen, we ARE outraged at being blamed for everything. Whites in their own countries are sick of being the only blame for any cultural tension, particularly tension they didn’t ask for. The outrage is against the media for putting the blame where it doesn’t belong. StopWhiteHate

Hey Owen any news from your military precision Kung Fu attack?

Well owenjones84 where is the evidence that you were assaulted by right wing thugs on saturday? Statements have to be backed up with facts. Look at yourself you've encouraged violence against people you politically disagree with.

At least some of the outrage is reserved for professional offence-takers who treat a slight rough-and-tumble (with no video evidence or police action) after closing time as evidence of a Nazi revival in order for evermore media attention
