Christopher Gibbons and Tyrone Patten-Walsh espoused racist, antisemitic, Islamophobic, homophobic and misogynistic views and encouraged listeners of their “Lone Wolf Radio” podcast to commit violent acts against ethnic minorities, authorities said.

Using aliases on their show, the pair said “the white race was likely to be ‘genocided’ unless steps were taken to fight back.” They approved of a day when so-called race traitors would be hanged, particularly those in interracial relationships. Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan, is biracial.

On one episode, Gibbons said the Duke of Sussex should be “prosecuted and judicially killed for treason” and called Harry’s son, Archie, who is now 4, a “creature” that “should be put down.”

    It’s the UK.

    They’re definitelly not a society were everybody is seen as equally important or deserving, and it gets reflected in such interesting details as the Upper Classes having their own language accent, which is not regional and distinct from the other accents, or how those same Upper Classes found National Socialism (i.e. Nazi) thinking very appealing until Hitler invaded Poland (there’s even a picture of the old Queen as a child being taught by her uncle, then King, to do a Nazi salute) mainly because of the whole part that some people are inherently superior.

    In fact there are various laws granting certain rights specifically for members of the Royal Family, and then there is of course the vast informal liking-of-royal-arse going on such as the extra expedience and harsher sentencing we see here.

    Mind you, not defending these guys, just wish everybody over there getting death threats from people like these saw an equally expedient and strong application of the Law as members of the Upper Classes (not just Royals, though those are primo inter pares in this) do.
