Trickjaw posted:There is no shortage of those sorts in Spain. The worst type of insular knobs who click their fingers at waiting staff, insist on walls sausages and even resent other foreigners moving there. Also, you have little enclaves of Europeans, Dutch, German, Irish, et all, all pandering to their colonel blimps but never acknowledging each other. These are the same sort of people who go on holiday somewhere because its hot which I dont get at all, spending two weeks sitting on a beach or by a pool sounds like the most boring thing in the world to me but each to their own so long as you don't move there and wreck the place, watching a place in the sun makes me so angry a lot of the time.

Just to make sure in case you missed it at the time, the bake comment was about the bakers who refused to take an order for a cake that had Bert and Ernie and a gay rights slogan, it went to court and from the comment I guess EU law meant the court found that to be discriminatory, because well it loving is homophobic baking bastards.

Coohoolin posted:Have you been to Peterhof? It's hilarious, every single structure is basically "hmm can we add more gold foil and turquoise? yes let's add more gold foil and turquoise". I loved Peterhof but then I've always had a soft spot for garish over the top architecture and I am quite an art guy, when I go on holiday I tend to spend a lot of time in galleries and I did 3 days in the Hermitage, so I loved it. I just dont think you can say you wont find deep culture there because you don't like the style of architecture or aren't big on art, its not a taste issue, you can dislike the city but saying there's no deep culture just strikes me as incorrect. Guavanaut posted:Is it? I thought the current law on cakes and discrimination was that you couldn't deny someone a cake based on a protected class. Like if you do wedding cakes with fancy icing swirls, you can't deny me one because I'm marrying a person of the same sex, or because I'm marrying a woman of a different race, or because I'm getting married in a mosque. I was speaking from a personal view there not the legal, I view it to be discriminatory. Political views are a tricky one, something like LGBT rights are a political issue yet I feel should be illegal to discriminate against, but other less so and with something like that the law needs to be absolute, so I don't really know.

If I remember rightly he's actually shaking his head at the horse farting whilst he pretends the horse's fart is the wrestler he was feuding with trying to speak, hence the quote below, Terry Funk was some boy back in the day. So is the general take away from yesterday's Birmingham fash demonstration that the fash didn't really show up in any significant amount and West Midlands Police actually dealt with the two groups fairly? They've actually always seemed to be one of the less poo poo police forces in the country (after the PSNI who have been forced into being not poo poo because of how poo poo the RUC were). I should probably try to not be the police defending socialist if I want to avoid the list so ACAB I guess.

In terms of drugs its also hard to find someone who dabbles in anything harder than cannabis. This really surprises me because again working in pubs I've found that the amount of people in the say 25-30 age group who regularly do cocaine is pretty drat high, maybe you're asking the wrong students to hook you up or maybe the younger are folk are more sensible.

Firstly Nick Griffin should have been on QT because it made him look like a complete loving idiot and his views were exposed to be complete bunk, look at Bonnie Greer calling him on his definitions of indigenous British people, the only people who viewed him as an attacked underdog were his devout supporters who were thinking that anyway, that is how it went down to view otherwise is to distort history. Also what the gently caress happened to students over the last nine years. Go back to setting up squats in South Belfast so you can afford to get hosed on Buckfast, coke and dope like when I was at uni instead of getting upset about anything, its gets a lot harder to get really hosed up all the time in later life trust me and there will still stuff to get upset about.

Jedit posted:Reminder that Amanda Palmer, wife of multimillionaire author Neil Gaiman, raised over $1m on Kickstarter to record and tour an album then expected musicians to work as her backing band without being paid. She's also now got a patreon that takes a grand total of about $34,000 for every 'thing' she releases, she releases a 'thing' about once a month, it may be a new song or if we're really lucky a new poem!!! She likens this to musicians who are first out on tour crashing on other musician's sofas. Worst of all she hasn't released a good record since 'Who Killed Amanda Palmer', which was admittedly a really good record.

New Day sounds full facist, like the sort of facist party that would cone to power in a former soviet state. The anti-semitism thing is a very long standing one and there are a variety of historical justifications for it. Firstly its said that when Jews move to a country they refuse to integrate (where have we heard that before) there's obviously perhaps an element of truth to this, I you move hundreds of miles in a large group to a new country you probably would want to stay amongst your own people who's language you speak before integrating more, however by that point you've been ghettoized by racist fucks who wont let you integrate because you don't want to, so youre hosed. Secondly there's the whole money thing, as I understand it and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, historically Christians weren't allowed to lend money for profit its the whole usury thing, big sin but Jewish doctrine didn't consider it such people needed to borrow money and went to the Jews as there was no benefit for a Christian to lend money. Again here comes the resentment of them lot profiting off us because they're sinners, not realising that its not the Jews fault they wouldn't lend money. This is the starting point of the Jews controlling the banks myth. Then in a more modern sense there's Israel, this is simple we all know Israel are a god awful, illegal state who commit mass human rights abuses daily with Britain and Americas tacit support, obviously people don't like this and then conflate Israel and the Jews which isn't exactly kosher. This ties in with the other reasons as people justify our support for Israel as being because Jews control us or holocaust sympathy, I would argue that at the start there was an element of holocaust sympathy its more down to anti-Arabism on our part.

Guavanaut posted:It also falls completely outside of our modern ideas about the difference between religion, nationality, and ethnicity. Are they a race or a religion? If a Jew becomes an atheist or a Christian are they still a Jew? What if their grandma became a Christian, which one is hereditary? Twin that with the explicit references to ethnicity in the Jewish religious texts and it's quite easy to make them outsiders, and it's even easier to make people hate outsiders. I forgot about this point and it is an interesting one, oddly some people have started trying to do that with Christianity and Islam, they are normally extremists and nationalists of some sort referring to a Christian nation and a Christian people, oddly they want the whole world to follow their religion but also don't want to let anyone in, so they errrrr guess kill all the non-believers.
