Elon Musk and America’s Far Right Stoke Anger Over Murder of UK Teen
埃隆·马斯克与美国极右翼势力利用英国少年谋杀案煽动愤怒
Protests over the December murder of an 18-year-old descended into violence in the UK on Tuesday, as influential figures on America’s far right sought to exploit the situation to claim it was evidence of widespread antiwhite racism. 周二,针对去年12月一名18岁少年遇害案的抗议活动在英国演变为暴力事件。与此同时,美国极右翼阵营中有影响力的人物试图利用这一局势,声称这是“针对白人的种族主义”广泛存在的证据。
Police were attacked with rocks and flares outside Southampton Central Police Station and arrests were made after hundreds gathered in anger over the release of bodycam footage showing Henry Nowak being handcuffed as he lay dying while his killer, Vickrum Digwa, stood nearby. 在南安普顿中央警察局外,数百名愤怒的民众聚集在一起,抗议警方公布的一段随身摄像机录像。录像显示,亨利·诺瓦克(Henry Nowak)在垂死挣扎时被戴上了手铐,而凶手维克鲁姆·迪格瓦(Vickrum Digwa)则站在一旁。随后,抗议者向警察投掷石块和信号弹,警方进行了逮捕行动。
Digwa was jailed for life on Monday for murdering Nowak in December 2025. At the time, Digwa, a Sikh, lied to police and told them he had been racially abused. This led police to handcuff Nowak, despite the teenager repeatedly saying he couldn’t breathe and that he had been stabbed. A police officer can be heard replying: “Don’t think you have, mate.” 周一,迪格瓦因于2025年12月谋杀诺瓦克被判处终身监禁。案发时,身为锡克教徒的迪格瓦向警方撒谎,称自己遭到了种族歧视。这导致警方给诺瓦克戴上了手铐,尽管这名少年反复表示自己无法呼吸且已被刺伤。录音中可以听到一名警官回应道:“伙计,我不觉得你被刺了。”
Outside of court on Monday, Nowak’s father called the police’s actions “inhumane and degrading” but clearly stated, “We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension.” 周一庭审结束后,诺瓦克的父亲称警方的行为“不人道且有辱人格”,但他明确表示:“我们不希望他的死被用来制造更多的分裂、仇恨或紧张局势。”
However, within hours, far-right figures on both sides of the Atlantic were seeking to take advantage of the anger caused by Nowak’s death, with many posts on social media claiming the death was evidence of antiwhite racism racking up millions of views. 然而,仅仅几个小时内,大西洋两岸的极右翼人物就开始利用诺瓦克之死引发的愤怒。社交媒体上大量声称此案是“反白人种族主义”证据的帖子获得了数百万次的浏览量。
Central to this was Elon Musk, the SpaceX CEO who has posted dozens of times about the cases over the last 24 hours, including an offer to fund the prosecution of police officers involved in the case. “Official police policy requires them to be racist against whites,” Musk wrote. SpaceX首席执行官埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)在其中扮演了核心角色。在过去24小时内,他针对此案发布了数十条推文,甚至提出要资助对涉案警官的起诉。马斯克写道:“官方的警察政策要求他们对白人种族歧视。”
Musk also shared a video from far-right British agitator Tommy Robinson calling on people to gather outside Southampton Central Police Station on Tuesday night, echoing calls from Reform Party leader Nigel Farage for people to respond to the incident with “pure cold rage.” 马斯克还分享了英国极右翼煽动者汤米·罗宾逊(Tommy Robinson)的一段视频,呼吁人们周二晚间聚集在南安普顿中央警察局外,这与改革党领袖奈杰尔·法拉奇(Nigel Farage)呼吁民众以“纯粹的冷酷愤怒”来回应此事的言论相呼应。
“I heard someone say this wasn’t about race; this is about race,” Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, told the crowd. Later, protesters were blocked from entering the street where Digwa lived with his family, the BBC reported. “我听到有人说这与种族无关;这恰恰就是关于种族,”罗宾逊(原名斯蒂芬·亚克斯利-列侬)对人群说道。据英国广播公司(BBC)报道,随后,抗议者被阻止进入迪格瓦与其家人居住的街道。
Stoking Tensions 煽动紧张局势
UK Home secretary Shabana Mahmood called the violence “completely unacceptable” and condemned those stoking tensions: “There can be no justification for hijacking this tragedy to stir up violence and disorder.” 英国内政大臣沙巴娜·马哈茂德(Shabana Mahmood)称暴力行为“完全不可接受”,并谴责了那些煽动紧张局势的人:“利用这一悲剧来煽动暴力和骚乱是没有任何正当理由的。”
But far-right figures in America continued to push the antiwhite narrative. “You will be called racist for standing up for the West, or watch your boy bleed out on camera,” right-wing podcaster and conspiracy theorist Mike Cernovich posted on X. 但美国的极右翼人物继续推行“反白人”的叙事。右翼播客主兼阴谋论者迈克·切尔诺维奇(Mike Cernovich)在X上发帖称:“如果你为西方挺身而出,你会被称为种族主义者;否则,你就只能眼睁睁看着你的孩子在镜头前流血致死。”
Matt Walsh, who earlier in the week called Nowak’s murder the “systemic hatred, oppression, and marginalization of white people,” shared footage of the protests in Southampton, writing: “Inspiring to see. The indigenous peoples of the UK have had enough. Finally.” 马特·沃尔什(Matt Walsh)本周早些时候曾称诺瓦克的谋杀案是“对白人的系统性仇恨、压迫和边缘化”。他分享了南安普顿抗议活动的视频,并写道:“看到这一幕很受鼓舞。英国的原住民已经受够了。终于。”
George Floyd Comparison 与乔治·弗洛伊德案的对比
Many figures on the right have compared Nowak’s death to George Floyd, including Katie Miller, podcaster and wife of key Trump adviser Stephen Miller. “Keir Starmer spoke out publicly about George Floyd at least seven times,” Miller wrote in response to a post from the UK prime minister. “He has mentioned Henry Nowak’s name only once. Why is the standard different for a crime against a white man?” 许多右翼人士将诺瓦克的死与乔治·弗洛伊德(George Floyd)案相提并论,其中包括播客主、特朗普核心顾问斯蒂芬·米勒(Stephen Miller)的妻子凯蒂·米勒(Katie Miller)。她在回应英国首相的一篇帖子时写道:“基尔·斯塔默(Keir Starmer)曾至少七次公开谈论乔治·弗洛伊德。但他只提到过一次亨利·诺瓦克的名字。为什么针对白人的犯罪标准就不同呢?”
Nick Fuentes, a white nationalist, focused on the Nowak murder on his nightly show on Rumble on Tuesday evening, calling it “the white George Floyd” and claiming the Digwa should be executed. “Unless white people are willing to fight for a place in this world, then we are going to die,” Fuentes said. 白人民族主义者尼克·富恩特斯(Nick Fuentes)在周二晚间的Rumble节目中重点讨论了诺瓦克谋杀案,称其为“白人的乔治·弗洛伊德”,并声称迪格瓦应该被处决。“除非白人愿意为在这个世界上争取一席之地而战,否则我们终将灭亡,”富恩特斯说。
He also posted about the murder on X, writing: “This is an allegory for what is happening to European civilization on a global scale.” 他还在X上发布了关于这起谋杀案的帖子,写道:“这是全球范围内欧洲文明所遭遇困境的寓言。”
This is not the first time that Musk and the American far right have been accused of inciting violence in the UK and other European countries. In 2024, Musk was widely blamed for his role in fomenting anti-immigration riots in the UK, and in 2023 Musk and figures like Steve Bannon stoked calls for civil war in Ireland in the wake of riots in the capital. 这并非马斯克和美国极右翼势力首次被指控在英国及其他欧洲国家煽动暴力。2024年,马斯克因在英国煽动反移民骚乱中的角色而受到广泛指责;2023年,在爱尔兰首都发生骚乱后,马斯克和史蒂夫·班农(Steve Bannon)等人也曾煽动过关于内战的言论。
