Once again the English succeed in shaming our great family of nations  Perhaps it was not a good idea to allow them to get all hyped up on fleg nationalism after all. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/jul/10/he-is-nine-years-old-more-danes-tell-of-being-abused-by-england-fans The Guardian posted:Imaan Madsen, a Danish citizen living in the UK, told the Observer that the family of three had not experienced any problems during the game but as they left the stadium England fans shouted “gently caress Denmark” and other slurs at them.

It makes me irrationally livid that these cunts (sorry, its just the best pejorative) are free to go, whilst committing essentially viral warfare. Also, I wouldn't necessarily hold SA up as a bastion of liberty. I grew up there, and the other poster whose name I forget, at the height of apartheid. That beautiful country attracts a certain type of dangerous personality, hence their second home.

sinky posted:Cool cool country we live in Jesus Christ this is awful on so many levels. I can't understand the legal basis for this and even if there was some reason to take a sculpture down (like an issue with planning our whatever) it would be a job for a bloke from council enforcement not fifty loving police officers. I bet you while this was happening some woman was getting told they couldn't investigate a special assault because of a lack of resources. What was the sculpture Patel objected to anyway? A statue of Churchill getting bummed or something?

Im pretty much freaking out at this country. There is nothing here for me, my relatives I like are dead, the rest are, frankly, best off as fsr away as possible. Another point, Patel has made the kinder transport illegal. gently caress you, Syria! Sorry, having a bit of a meltdown.

It makes me irrationally livid that these cunts (sorry, its just the best pejorative) are free to go, whilst committing essentially viral warfare. My grandpa did in fact design aircraft wings and worked on the spitfire and Lancaster bomber  He had a obsessive hatred of “yobs” and once burnt my uncle’s tie because it was too skinny. He could rant for hours about “those dreadful skinheads” and thought “decent chaps should wear a hat if they are going bald” He also hated all music with words in it and thought opera was dangerously modern. He loved the football though.

So they rebuilt an XR sculpture in an unobtrusive place which want causing any disruption and half the metropolitan police smashed up their gallery. Just shows that XR's policy of cooperation and submission to the police was an excellent long term strategy.

I got probed from the football subform england thread for saying this (apparently it's rose twitter brain whatever that is) but seeing all the tory nobbers who encouraged booing the loving team and wrote op-eds about the team being too 'woke' do a massive transparent U-turn once the team starting winning poo poo is both hilarious and infuriating

My dad and Uncle grew up in Zambia (or North Rhodesia as it was when they moved there) because my grandad wanted to do a colonialism and wasn't smart enough to pick a country where white people were in charge. Long story short they moved back to Cardiff but my otherwise left wing dad has always had some contrary opinions about Nelson Mandela.

Pretty was our maid (mum euphamism slave<maid) and could not live under the same roof and live as an Afrikaans. I saw people being killed in township riots. My old man, who .I hope is just playing a characture now, loved it because most of the bars and clubs were nada females （Dad wasn't cruising, he just hated being with us. Still does, in my case! but the boy from .Birkenhead （ a quiet little fishing village in the North west）decided he was going to teach those n—rs a lesson.

Priti Patel attempted to put refugees in a volcano, destroys subversive art, appears to rip off Mussolini posters, genuinely enjoys watching people dragged screaming to internment camps (which we have), the curriculum in schools is blatant propaganda, racism is only bad because minorities mention it is an official state position, state torture and war crimes are literally unprosecutable, any government agency can legally kill you, the police are open rapists and don't face any consequences until they murder a middle class white woman, and all enemies of the state are ruthlessly destroyed with highly coordinated smear campaigns by a state and intelligence service controlled press. But if you say the f word you're being hyperbolic. Gandhi was right
