Brits also pitted the minorities against one another to some extent
As a means to facilitate staying in power
Keep them fighting each other and not us.
ye
s'hard to account for what impact that had long term though
Well that wasn't taken into consideration
Because it was assumed, more troops could be stationed there
The Parsis were very much used by the Brits, yet they are entirely fine and no one minds them.
No, I mean what impact it ended up having on he situation today
Ah
It wasn't assumed we would be pulling out
Or disbanding the empire
sure
I'm somewhat confused by the Sargonites meming about how Britain can just trade with the Commonwealth after it leaves the EU. Surely the biggest market there is India and I cannot imagine they are that interested in opening themselves again for privileged British merchants...
Both India and the UK want more economic growth
India wants it, so it can *try* compete with China
The UK wants it to stay afloat
literally everyone wants more economic growth, other then some weirdo extremists
Most of the idiots on here that are anti EU cheered when we voted to leave
They're also the people to complain about immigration from """Asia"""
lol yes
Importing MORE people they despise into the country
I've met plenty of Poles and a few Romanians
They're alright
it's a choice between Romanians and Pakis I'm afraid
They work hard and they're not scum
Pakis on the other hand
Are like a growing cancer who despise us
I don even blame em tbh
We brought it on ourselves tbh
I met a Congolese dude once
A despicable character tbh, *but* when he says that he thinks that Belguim owes him everything he can get out of it because his great uncle got his hand chopped off for working too slow. I don;t see how he doesn;t have a point. I don't think it's a sustainable model of development - just stealing back what was to some degree stolen, but it's not like I wouldn;t feel entitled to this were I in his position.
In the case of the Pakis though
put yourself in their shoes
they come to the capital of the ppl who used them as cheap labor
the ppl there live by a code of "ye no, we were totally in the wrong"
Yep
Brought it on ourselves.
they have a frankly despicable culture of excess and debauchery
they chop the dicks off their kids
