I don't think people are saying the violence is that erotic. I think they are saying that the skinhead dude was hot looking....well, hot looking in relative sense. I recognized that he could potentially be good looking, but silly me, I like guys with hair.
I watched the film. They showed the ethnics getting roughed up to bring more drama to their retalliation. Didn't it make you feel better watching them fight back AFTER you had watched the horrible things that had happened earlier on? It puts a face on the victims instead of showing random people fighting back without provocation. Without those earlier scenes, the movie would have had nothing but a Rambo quality to it. You see a guy, know he's bad, and shoot him. Same thing. Those people from India (it's been a while since I've seen it and can't remember where they are from) would have been nothing more than random strangers on the street who decided to chase down skinheads. Now, you have their personal drama involved in it.
See? Just because those scenes exist doesn't mean they are necessarily bad.
The reason why "real" skinheads liked this film is because when the retaliation came back, their gut instinct as what they are would have made them think, "Look at those bastards getting our guys!" They would have sympathized with the skinheads because they know no sympathy for any of the other groups. They would have been outraged that a minority bothered to retaliate at all, and knowing no sympathy, they would have cheered on "their" guys because they clearly would have felt "their" guys were in the right all along.
