i like how they keep bringing human rights up; people who live in glass houses.... ESPECIALLY british ones ... lol

and here i am laughing while my country is literally doing it to the palestinians as i type this and at such a dramatically larger scale too.

It's crazy how much importance the Brits ascribe to themselves. Like the UK is just a small swampy island smaller than a regular Chinese province, but with how these people talk about it you would think it's the size of China

Even without communism, they still remember the Opium Wars

"Starmer and Jinping" in the first image caption, they can't even tell which one is the surname

I think some future historians will look back at the European Miracle as the fluke that damaged Europe’s ability to coexist and adapt in the 21st century. They still think it is the 19th century and that they can dictate to the rest of the world.

The level of sheer delusional arrogance is astounding.
