The offender was a Christian born and raised in the UK. Social media amplified a false narrative of them being a Muslim illegal immigrant.

So now rioters are attacking innocent Muslims and their places of worship.

One person, a British national born in Britain, not muslim.

The riots were driven by rumours conflicting with these facts rapidly spreading on social media.

Yet there were multiple instances of rioters checking whether car passengers were white or non-white with the threat of violence [0], mobs attempting to pull foreign origin drivers out of their car [1], and multiple attempts to burn down hotels that housed asylum seekers [2][3].

In most these cases, they were aimed at Brown/"Muslim looking" people, with the slur "Paki" heavily utilized.

All of those are felonies that would be tried as attempted murder in the US (and absolutely will be in the UK as well).

Don't post disingenuous arguments. You know perfectly what the difference between triggered and amplified is.
