MEGATHREAD: YOUNG QUEEN OF THE SCOTS 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

On Aug 23, 2025, this footage was taken in Dundee Scotland.
According to the Scottish police:
"A 12-year-old girl has been charged with being in possession of offensive weapons. She will be referred to the relevant authorities...our enquiries are ongoing."

This is Fatos Ali Dumana, a 21yo Bulgarian National. He was filming the girls and claims they accosted him. He insisted "he would never hurt anyone". The MSM portrayed him as the victim. He has an extensive history of provocative tiktok content.

It was an undeniably memetic moment. It sparked a deluge of reactions, on all sides of the spectrum. The precise details were initially sketchy and constantly changing. First she was Mayah, then Ruby, then Lola. She is now believed to be 12yo Lola Moir from Dundee, Scotland.

"Misinformation" warnings were soon put out by the Scotland police, and the MSM blamed Elon Musk and X for spreading it, continuing to defend the "Bulgarian couple" Ali Dumana and his female companion.

Soon this story began to spread, allegedly from a mother. The girls were being sexually harassed by the Bulgarian man and his "sister". Ruby was assaulted by the couple and taken to the hospital, the friend Mayah called the police, and Lola was the one wielding the axe and knife.

The MSM version differed greatly from this account. They report no injuries or hospital visits, instead insisting that Fatos Ali Dumana was innocent, and that he had legally been in the country for 4 years.

As the news cycle suspiciously and swiftly switched to the latest happening across the pond, more details started to emerge surrounding these enigmatically memetic Scottish girls. A Facebook post reports "Lilly Ruby Moir" missing on July 23, 2023, *one* month before the incident.

On July 24, one day later, Lily (with one L) Ruby Moir is still cited as missing, with "increasing concerns" for her whereabouts. She is described as a "Monifieth girl" (essentially part of Dundee). This is likely "Ruby", the 13yo older sister of axe girl.

On Friday, July 25, "Lilly (Ruby) Moir" is said "to have been traced" and found "safe and well." The report doesn't offer any more details, including her whereabouts (is she home?)

Note her first name is spelled both "Lily" and "Lilly".

Enter Lola. At 5pm on Tuesday, July 29 at the Wellgate Shopping Centre in Dundee, Ruby (no longer "Lilly)" is seen with her younger sister Lola. The police report notes that the sisters are "in possession of bus passes and a small amount of money."

A tweet from July 30 announces the girls went missing on Tuesday July 29. It links to an article from "The Courier" that has been updated to say they have been "traced". It says they are "understood" to be safe and "believed" to be in each other's company.

On July 31 at 5:30 pm, Ruby Moir is reported to have been seen nearly 200km away from Dundee in the town of Skelmorlie. She is described as a "Skelmorlie teen" and there is no mention of younger sister Lola. This article is published on August 1.

The MSM starts to pick up on the story on August 1. Articles note the sisters were last seen on July 29 at the Dundee shopping mall. There is no mention of the sighting of July 31 sighting of Ruby in Skelmorlie.

Although anecdotal, this post on Facebook has comments that suggest the girls were "found" and then "ran away again." However this appears to predate the August 1 reports that they were still missing, and doesn't confirm that they were ever returned home.

Interestingly, grok noted the sisters had gone missing on July 29 from Dundee, but it claimed they were "found safe" by August 5 according to Police Scotland. When I asked grok for the source of that claim, it didn't answer. When pressed, grok admitted it made up the Aug 5 date.

As one side sets up fundraisers for the "hero" girls, the other is rallying behind Fatos, whois continuing to claim (amplified by the MSM) that the girls are part of a street gang that harasses innocent migrants with weapons.

The incident continued to fester and polarize. On one extreme, Lola is a "12yo gang member" of "territorial, white youth gangs".

Others noted they were wearing similar clothes to when they were reported missing in July. Had they been kidnapped? Was there a connection to the "gypsy" grooming gangs that were thriving in Dundee?

We may never know what happened here. They are trying to make this story disappear, but you can't kill a meme. They can't meme, and they hate that! Ultimately, what actually happened is not as important as what we make of it. We are the music makers, we are the memers of memes 🎶

Here's a ditty I wrote for the Young Queen 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
The role of the bard in society is more important than you might think.
For now her story is immortalized in memes...and in song 💪 🎶

Correction: July 23, *2025* not 2023 (last month) as noted in the screenshot. This is the earliest account I could find of Ruby Moir being reported missing.

NEW: This is allegedly 14yo Mayah who was on scene. She says Fatos was there with another man and his sister. She affirms the assault on Ruby and hospital trip. She distances herself from Lola and disavows the weapons. She requests that people stop using her name in images/memes.
