Here you go
In general I am not a fan of labeling people.
If one is critical of e.g. Israels actions in Gaza, it does not make one an anti-semite. If one is critical of mass immigration, it does not make one a Xenophobe or racist.
Labeling people to be part of a extreme group is a way of shaming people with the objective to trivialize their point of view on any given subject. Essentially to discourage open discussion.
The UK protest should be about the why. Why do these happen, where does the frustration of people come from to take it to the streets. Just labeling them this or that is not helpful at all.
