The neighborhood of Hampstead is just at present exercised with a series of events which seem to run on lines parallel to those of what was known to the writers of headlines and "The Kensington Horror," or "The Stabbing Woman," or "The Woman in Black." During the past two or three days several cases have occurred of young children straying from home or neglecting to return from their playing on the Heath. In all these cases the children were too young to give any properly intelligible account of themselves, but the consensus of their excuses is that they had been with a "bloofer lady." It has always been late in the evening when they have been missed, and on two occasions the children have not been found until early in the following morning. It is generally supposed in the neighborhood that, as the first child missed gave as his reason for being away that a "bloofer lady" had asked him to come for a walk, the others had picked up the phrase and used it as occasion served. This is the more natural as the favorite game of the little ones at present is luring each other away by wiles. A correspondent writes us that to see some of the tiny tots pretending to be the"bloofer lady" is supremely funny. Some of our caricaturists might, he says, take a lesson in the irony of grotesque by comparing the reality and the picture. It is only in accordance with general principles of human nature that the "bloofer lady" should be the popular role at these al fresco performances.

There is way too much money floating around in these communities. It breeds certain pathologies, obscenely paid escorts being one of them. See also how there's the whole "unless you follow exactly our ideologies and beliefs and do what we say is the right way to do things then you'll be damned forever part of the eternal underclass".


The solution here is for these communities to be put in their place, which is only really going to happen via some form of external shock. When and if that happens nobody can say.

This can be 100% true and it still be right for Digwa to get convicted for murder, just like how the hood rat gets convicted for murder. The whole "but anti white racism" bring played up by far right grifters is its own thing but Digwa absolutely deserves being convicted here.

He was a goner regardless even if the police had done everything right, his stab wound from before the police arrived was already lethal.

Yes, this was a bad call from the police in a case where the murderer and his family deliberately set it up to mislead the police and now we're blaming minorities because some individual police officers got misled. Regardless we know that he had been fatally stabbed by the time the police arrived and he was a goner regardless even if the police had done the correct thing.


This is an example of a criminal killing off an ordinary member of society without any real justification and then lying about it in the most convenient way possible (which criminals are wont to do). The murderer has been punished as he should have been. It's a very shitty situation and terrible for the family but it's not some big "race war now" as far right grifters have been trying to make it out to be online.


At most this is a "routine" case of murder with police mishandling that should be investigated (btw, we can't even be sure whether there was mishandling at this stage, the police made a bad judgment call but there's no rule that works for 100% of situations, we have to wait for the official report)

If you're a powerful political elite while the world is in a crisis rich foreigners with minimal direct ties to your country are the best possible people to make examples out of. There's already an "us vs them" for the ordinary population especially if the country wasn't directly involved in causing the world crisis and them being foreigners means they likely don't have well developed connections with native elites meaning you don't end up pissing off a bunch of them (which could threaten your long term grip on power) when you make an example out of the rich foreigners.


Thiel and Co. need to realise that in the end they are made of the same flesh and blood as the meanest of us. If the world collapses everyone suffers, including them and their current fame means they don't get the cloak of invisibility conferred by (relative) anonymity even ordinarily successful UMC people do.
