In the usage of TJ, the Anglophobe racist, he was referring here < too many of the hooded are vvv's > to English people of antecedents longer ago than 1900 being English meaning, more or less, near enough for riot work, to Caucasian native english speakers whose parents and grandparents were born in England. VVV is in fact short for Virtuous Victorian Values which were the collection of philosophical foundations which led to the benighted of the world being brought into the modern era of freedom, democracy, science and Enlightenment ideologies founded on Christian values. VVV does not refer to white English people.
It is of course an oxymoron or oxycretin to refer to hooded criminals smashing other people's property and looting it as being "vvv". It's part of his word slipperiness, reality distortion, inside out reasoning and back to front thinking all designed to foster the idea that his Beijing bosses and paymasters are great and wonderful harbingers of all that's good and that the Anglophone creators of what was fortunate in his ancestry were evil-doing genocidal conquistadors robbing the planet of its goodness and enslaving those they didn't destroy.
Virtuous Victorian Values are of course not patented and available only to England. They can be and have been adopted to a greater or lesser extent everywhere since humans were chimps. It has been a very long process of formulating and adopting said VVV which make a good life. The English happened to adopt the world's best collection of VVV a couple of centuries ago, which led to great success. Neither was it just the English. Across Europe, there was a broadly similar theme with the revolution in science, technology, capitalism and freedom, law and other goodliness leading to enormous success.
Many of those Virtuous Victorian Values have been abandoned with the not surprising result that places like Singapore and Hong Kong which adopt at least some of them do very well by comparison, in many ways. The USA has abandoned many of said VVV with the result being apparent to all. For example, borrowing money to go to the pub is not a virtuous Victorian value. Bernie Madoff was not an exponent of VVV. Borrowing another $1 trillion from workers in China to fund bludgers in the USA is not a VVV.
