If you are right-wing, please take a few minutes to read
Hello right-wing Bournemouth! Thank you for taking the time to read this
I am a left wing person from Bournemouth, and I genuinely want to have a conversation. There has been a lot of protests and a lot of shouting, and I know we both believe we are doing the right thing. However, I haven't tried to have a proper conversation, I think at the demonstrations, both sides are at our peak anger, and constructive conversation is unlikely to happen.
What I'm suggesting is meeting one on one with someone, in a cafe or something, and just talking about why we believe the things we believe. No insults. No prepared debate. I want to actually get to know you and understand you.
I don't believe that you are all 'thugs' and 'aggressors', although I'm sure there are some bad people (as there are in any group). I believe that people are good, and most people will fight for the right thing. If you believe what you are doing is the right thing, then I really do want to understand why.
Please let me know what you guys think, and DM me if you would like to arrange something, I'm very happy to have a chat on the phone first so you know I'm not an insane person.
Thank you again :)
Edit: I should clarify, I am talking about specifically far-right groups, such as the Bournemouth Patriots
