keekybreeks Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yup, I didnt want to open this up along those lines, but the whole unfolding was dreadful and distasteful. not hard to mtake a marxian stance on the whole fing and argue a case. terrrible terrible days.

Otta Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 The response to the riots was pretty insane too. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/55902-mark-duggan/page/2/#findComment-834295 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blah Blah Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yes the response was insane Otta and definitely steeped in class issues. The actual riots themselves though were a spntaneous act of 'I can, therefore I will', helped to swell by social media. Had facebook spread the word about a mass demo taking over parliament, many of those rioters wouldn't have got out of bed. But tweet free stuff and no Police around, up they all get. It's what it reflects about our culture that's more interesting to me. The importance placed on things and the kudos associated with them over anything of real substence. We have a generation of kids who hate the Police and authority but can't articulate why. A generaltion of kids who want everything for nothing and so on. Not all kids I know but the malaise is there, and worrying.

keekybreeks Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 quick one before I start prepping a wholsome organic suppertaking a marxian overview of the whys and wherefors of these riots would go along with Baumans perspective- to take it down to its nuts and bolts- its all capitals faultthe Zizek- and I have not read this in depth but will do later Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/55902-mark-duggan/page/2/#findComment-834301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
