So apparently #racial #activists are getting annoyed because the #uk 's #conservatives are supposedly pushing a #british #black #history that tells a slightly more #positive #story https://www.lotuseaters.com/historian-ca.. These people very much want to cause #division ...
Agreed, the #british style of #quotation is much better: https://www.erichgrunewald.com/posts/the.. No need for multiple sentences.

It only used actors because it was so divorced from reality that it couldn't possibly even pretend to represent it. They make out as if the couple were the #victims and everybody acted against them. They wanted to but avoided outright just calling the #british public #racist - unaware that the #uk is not the #us and we do not think as they do in terms of #race ... The sad part is that #americans will believe this shit.Will be checking out the #documentary from #princeharry and #meghanmarkel named "Escaping the Palace". I would link to some resource, but there really doesn't see to be any without some extreme #bias - it's not even clear where this is coming from. I will still keep an open mind whilst watching/listening.

There is a classic style to old #british #romantic #movies - it all gets out of control and come to a #hilarious closing. They simply don't make films like this any more.Having to rewatch the #nottinghill #film after it came up recently in a #podcast I was listening to, which was on my #backlog to watch after some housemates watched it without me. A great #movie so far, looking forward to finishing it whilst I work.
How better to #celebrate #pakistan 's #independence from #british rule than for 400 #men to #sexually #assault a #tiktok #woman in #public https://www.lotuseaters.com/three-to-fou.. Apparently some of the good men there tried to help cover her up and protect her, but it stands to reason that a good number were #opportunistic ... As the #article points out, societies are judged by their treatment of #women and #children ...
Well shit, one of the last good #british #comedians #seanlock died at age 58 from #cancer https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-a.. His dark #comedy will be sorely missed. One of my favourite moments is when he calls a #school #play " #shit ": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfFSxyrC..

His story is pretty epic, but some #commenters have rightfully pointed out that it was a poor choice of location for holiday. That said, I hope he gets out okay - hopefully he is able to share stories about the situation out there from a #civilian 's perspective.Well shit, a young #lad from the #uk is currently stuck in #afghanistan evading the #taliban https://twitter.com/Rimmy_Downunder/stat.. Apparently he dressed as a #local before being taken to a #secret #safehouse by some #british #forces - insane.

This #afghanistan situation is really escalating - the #uk have #deployed 600 #soldiers to support the #evacuation of #british #nationals https://www.lotuseaters.com/the-uk-deplo..
It #annoys me to no end to hear my #countrymen selling out their Country: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-.. Apparently a man from the #uk was #contracted to work at a #british #embassy in #berlin and got caught selling documents to #russia - luckily he doesn't have #diplomatic #immunity and can have the book thrown at him. That said, he could also be selling documents on purpose as a #misinformation campaign.
Great story from #countdankula about how the #uk went to #war with #iceland over #fish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3wx-Nam.. This whole ordeal was before my time, but still a very interesting story. Hopefully the #british #navy learned from their #communication mistakes, to which the #military have had many. Reminds me of a #radio #frequency mishap that fucked up #operationmarketgarden in #holland ( #battleofarnhem )...
Even #gbnews is not safe from #blm as a guest #presenter took the knee to the #marxist movement, after claiming #british #football fans are #racist https://www.lotuseaters.com/gb-news-pres..
"You cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in it's mouth!" - A great quote from #churchill from the film #darkesthour - a very good #film about #british #uk #history ...
