Bardeh posted:Tales from delivering post on a rough housing estate: rounded a corner today towards a house that I hate delivering to, because there are three early-20's women who live there that like to harass me, and then swear at me when I don't rise to it. Today they saw me coming and came out, saying 'the postman's gay, the postman's gay!' I rolled my eyes and ignored them, but then after I'd delivered to the house next to theirs and started towards their house one of them had pulled up her top and bra (on a residential street at probably 11am) and was dancing around with her tits out, shouting 'Have you got a hard-on?' I walked past and tried my best to ignore them, and then they started calling me a loving oval office ('LOOK AT ME YOU oval office!') and their two little kids, probably three, were watching from the front door Video it and put it online.

brian posted:I mean I think we should live in a municipalist world but that wasn't my point at all, it was that there's literally no evidence or even logic to the idea that bigger countries will result in an easier transition to no countries existing, in fact the opposite Maybe there's none of the top 10 poorest communities in Scotland because devolution actually worked, in which case the solution sounds like more devolution for Wales, and an actual start at devolution for the North and Midlands. If that leads to (or requires) a fracturing of the 'English' identity then so be it, I'm not sure that's a great loss. I don't think that alone is going to end countries existing though. Even leaving aside 'being a decent person', why would anyone be a oval office towards their postie? That's like being a oval office towards the kitchen staff at somewhere you go every day, it's going to come back on you. wipe your rear end on their mail

marktheando posted:Different types of privilege intersect! Fully aware mate, but you do still have to show that each thing is a type of privilege. White privilege is something all white people enjoy even though it doesn't mean they're not oppressed in other ways; English privilege would be something all English people enjoy even though they're oppressed in other ways. I'm not saying that doesn't exist. I am saying that accent/dialect privilege isn't it.

Guavanaut posted:I think in this case the best options are fewer land borders, and more decentralization away from the South East. decentralisation and devolution are stupid concepts made by nationalists to defend their system of working and never result in distribution of actual power except in the few cases where those areas have military or economic threat towards the rest of the country groups of increasingly small countries work better in the current capitalist system of hell in terms of creating organisations and agreements that don't intentionally gently caress each other over as much (due to the distribution of power and resources) and that's in a system that is resolutely engineered to make them irrelevant, big countries on the other hand have a huge vested interest in the status quo and systems that support that (e.g. capitalism and ethnic nationalism) and this entirely misses the point of why areas want to nationalise which is almost always to do with increasing representation in the modern era, ethnic nationalism in separatist areas hasn't been the main driver of support since at least the 70s in the west brian fucked around with this message at 20:04 on Mar 28, 2019 |

crispix posted:I don't disagree with a single thing you have posted. The assertion that I took issue with was not that people from any particular place have a social advantage in that particular place. Yeah, exactly - that's not usually what's defined as privilege. Scots don't have Scottish privilege because no one's going round calling them sassenachs or whatever. That's more common or garden racism. Watching someone Irishsplain 'Irish people are terrorists' prejudice to someone from frigging Ulster was quite something though

Hilarious answers aside, if they're obviously hosed up on drugs while in charge of their toddler-age kids it might be worth a call to Social Services or the NSPCC helpline. If you're out of there in a week you're ideally placed to avoid any reprisals if they end up getting a child welfare visit.

Bardeh I'm sorry that happened to you. It's hard to know what to do when you get ganged up on and you know they will corroborate each other regardless of what you actually do. You get lovely and they back each other in, you ignore and they egg each other on.

TomViolence posted:creating a hierarchy of privilege among the home nations is something only those from the home nations and the broader anglosphere can really indulge in, cos to everybody else in the world it's like trying to nose the difference between the varying flavours of poo poo they've had forced down their collective throats for sometimes hundreds of years It's like Mogg calling out somebody for going to a "worse" private school than he did in the HoC.
