I was thinking who the hell wanted to cancel Finn from Adventure Time!
Soup's done.
Pretty sure it was a joke at the expense of English exceptionalism.
We can all agree that Ted isn't the best of 'em.
Merry Christmas.
Dude, I've explained it as best I can. I think your feelings are shaping your PoV here, but I'm done trying to overcome that.
And you'd be wrong on both counts. 26% of our electorate voted Leave for a variety of reasons - racism being just one. 25% voted Remain.
You're drawing a very long bow based on your own prejudices.
All I'm saying is you can't say all Brits lack compassion because some racists exist. You're defining an entire country by the worst few.
I disagree with some of their views, but they're not based on a lack of compassion. Lack of education on the EU, perhaps.
I think the EU is generally a force for good, but my Leave-voting friends did so due to it's pro-Capitalist views and feelings of overreach.
No it doesn't. You aren't a mind reader, you cannot ascribe that thought process to most people. The EU is not perfect.
Disliking the EU as an institution and believing the lies that we'd have more money for our public services doesn't mean lacking compassion.
I voted Remain myself, but the people I know who voted Leave did so due to disliking the EU. Racists too, yes... but they're not the majorit
Leaving the EU and lacking compassion aren't linked. Like any country we've got our share of fucking idiots though.
A majority of Britain doesn't want to leave - 52% is outdated. If we could ditch the racist imperialist dickheads we would.
Second referendum was bandied around quite a lot, but Corbyn's previous anti-EU sentiment muddied the waters. Polls now lean Remain though.
Most people on both sides saw LD's revoke stance as anti-democratic. However Remain/revoke parties still got a majority of votes.
Cancel culture strikes again! /s
Why define a mutually beneficial relationship as foreign aid? Also definitely not everyone, even if the money saved would go where promised.
It's in Park.

I'm as shock as you are. Literally. Who would accuse sweet innocent "Grab them by the pussy they never say no" Trump of rape?
"I don't know this girl", "I'm not Trump", "What is an sex?"? This would be lying to law enforcement presumably, very sketchy.
That makes sense, but he specifically says he doesn't know the girl. So he's lying either way.

6,200 defendants, 67% were white, 4% were Asian, 3% were black, 1% were mixed race and 1% were other. Remained unidentified.
Ah, here we go. The source doesn't really support the conclusion that immigration results in increased sexual abuse, unsurprisingly.
2/2 The "56% of crime is committed by black people, i.e. very small numbers and ignoring the larger issue.
