Redirecting the blame will not solve anything, you can blame rich people for many bad things happening, but blaming them for anything that crosses your mind is making your argument weak.

I saw the children that were burning the cars last night, they are at max 16-17 yo. They need to learn that their actions have consequences, it is a part of growing up. Telling them that what they are doing is fine "because rich people exist", they will never take responsibility for their actions, and will always find someone else to blame. There is no possible way for you to justify their actions, because violence does not justify more violence.

I strongly suggest you to stop labeling people you disagree with as fascists. It seem to me that you don't even know what fascism is. I don't know how old you are, you sound really young. Its really hard to take you seriously in a discussion with that attitude.

Nobody is "redirecting" the blame. The government created the conditions that caused this. Happy and well cared for populations who have their needs met without oppression do not riot.

You are the one trying to misdirect. You are the one rolling out the greatest hits of hitler, reagan and thatcher. Trying to blame the individual and personal responsibility instead of the real source of the problem.

If you treat people like shit, eventually they fight back. Fuck around and find out.

I am probably significantly older than you are, having been an organiser in the UK left for several decades now.
