So what do you think would have caused more tension?

Having it all over the press that thousands of girls had been raped or not?

Clearly having it all over the press would have been much worse and caused a much bigger backlash so I'm not sure what you are trying to say here.

having your suffering ignored sucks, don't you think? Having it all over the press would have forced "them" to deal with it, not ignore it.

Let's step back and see what our positions are on this. I'm saying the "woke police" idea, an absolute joke, and fear of being called racist for busting up rape gangs is a ridiculous idea. Are you saying they chose to ignore rape gangs to appear nice? I'm saying they said "fuck you" by their actions to the victims and their families, there's nothing nice about it, if they throw in the "but we don't want to appear to be racist" which I think is an assumption being given to them, they are "flipping the bird" at the victims with both hands while saying fuck you, that it is not about their own fear of being called racist, but the system's desire to make the victims feel abandoned. I'm putting it into a larger context where we almost always see the same dynamics in play in all the English speaking countries if not all countries in what used to be called the "free world", because the forces that manipulate these seemingly separate societies are united. They are united in what they want, and so there is unity in what they are doing to us. These events are not in a vacuum. The ruling class in England want the same things for their working classes that the ruling class in the US want for their working classes. They will use the same tactics on both. Brexit and the accusations of racism are not separate from this, nor are they separate from what's gone on in the US.

I think you are accepting the easy explanation "they" have given us too quickly and uncritically.
