A moroccan-belgian dude defended a Muslim woman on a subway against a racist guy and he got hit in the face by a heavy object. He died after being in a coma. He was murdered by a racist.
The headline: ‘Man passed away after defending woman from attacker’
Passed away. Passed. Away. Like he peacefully lived his life until old age took him away.
It reminds me of the shit they do in the US when a cop murders somebody (usually a black person) and it’s like “officer involved shooting.” I guess it’s same shit, different country; “journalists” (if they can be called that when they’re part of the bougie status quo) tending to be on the side of white supremacy.
Even though they lack a proper unity, Belgium is one of the most racist countries I’ve seen. I’m not surprised the media is defending the asshole.
Passive voice is just another cruelty of the western system. Civility and etiquette its smothering hands.
