That picture is not Doncaster, It's Devils Dyke in Sussex, UK. It is facing East toward Chanctonbury Ring (furtherest hill in the distance). Behind the photographer will be a pub and a carpark. Its a drive of about 230 miles between there and Doncaster. #justsaying
So you're #justsaying that the chickenshit woman is also full of regular human shit?

Real talk, we have to figure out how to handle this kind of chronic fear and paranoia, because this shit ain't normal, but it is frighteningly common.
Like yeah this is a hilariously over-the-top example, but the amount of people you and I both know who go through life genuinely thinking that they're going to be the victim of a kidnapping or worse at any given time is astounding. And it's not without impact either, because this is exactly the unfounded sense of fear that conservatives/fascists seize on to manipulate the population.
I don't know the solution, but a world where everyone is afraid of their own shadow is a literal hellscape.
If I were a betting man, I'd wager this woman spends a lot of time scrolling through right-wing posts on Facebook about the "invasion" of Britain. A Brexit type, if you will.
That's just speculation in this specific case, but the amount of fear-mongering right-wing content on social media is absolutely a contributor to this kind of worldview more broadly.

The solution is multi-factorial and will take a generation to implement. Expand the social safety net, expand public education to encompass critical thinking skills and researching skills, restrict private media monopolies that hold public consciousness in a deathgrip.

More likely the 'journalist' just grabbed a stock image (it even credits Getty Images) of paragliders.

the british have to be the most over sensitive people on the planet, for some of the shit I've seen them complain about that made the news cycle.
Nothing real ever happens here. So me picking bits off the scab on my left knee has a good chance of making the national press.

A contributor? I would call it a primary source, tbh.

How deep do you need to be in the propaganda to think like that?
Don't forget that in WW2 UK civilians were taught to pay attention to other peoples' shoes because of rumours of hairy-handed nuns in Fallschirmjäger issue boots. This kind of shit is nothing new.

The way to handle it is to find the "The Architects of Fear", getting rid of them, and making sure no new ones take their place.

Oh yeah, hamas is very well known for their incredible Airforce and paramilitary units and operations
Paramilitary, paragliders, I never made the connection before!
-
To be fair this did happen 10 days after the October 7 attacks where paragliders attacked small villages
The paragliders were used to attack Israeli military bases.

I was working for a company that was renovating and upgrading the water filtration system in the ass end of nowhere and we had some official show up to ask us what we were doing b/c someone called us in thinking we were terrorists sabotaging the water system.
That's reasonable I think, if people are messing with infrastructure, it's good it's being verified they are doing legitimate work. Though don't call them on a hunch terrorists obviously...

Well, duh. The photo isn't of Doncaster because it's already fallen to Hamas.

Paragliders were also used to attack civilian targets like Kfar Aza. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67065205

wrote on last edited by [email protected]There were people who went out and shot at water towers during the radio airing of War of the World's. Floridians will routinely try to make hurricanes go away by shooting at them. Police get hundreds of calls about Venus every year.
There's no fixing this type of stupid. All we can hope for is to keep it from spreading too far.

God damnit, stop making the case for eugenics already. Let RFK's absurd health advice do its thing, weed them out, and we can hand out the Darwin awards in a few years.

Jesus, how can you read that fascist slop without vomitting:
The residents of the Israeli border communities expected periodic rocket attacks after Hamas seized control of Gaza in 2007. They accepted the danger as the price of country life in a tight knit community which still had traces of the pioneer spirit of early Zionist communities.
The article is full of horrific stuff like this.

That's still eugenics, just as side effect
