It was an analogy in a vain attempt to make you understand how lashing out works, and how your condescending and paternalistic attitude is absurd - but I should’ve known you’re too thick-skulled to even try to get it.

And yeah wow, social movements spread faster when people have more in common? Thanks for the insight, fam. Like yeah, that’s god damn obvious and I’m not sure why you think this is some sort of gotcha. It hit home for so many people in Brussels because they share a lot of the same problems, while having the same cultural background and speaking the same languages. You’re so close to getting why these riots spread to Brussels, but above all you just want to be mad about the violence.

I understand your frustration with and anxiety about these riots, but you’re letting those feelings keep you from grappling with the how and the why of these riots. Unless you try to show some understanding, I see no reason to continue this conversation.
