@AthelwulfG @adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell Well firstly, because they're not English. If I'm talking about, say , Scott Morrison (former Aussie PM) one would say he's Australian. Cos he's from Australia. At most, you would say "Australian with English heritage", and it would be silly to describe him as an Englishman

@Denoffham @adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell How?

Comments on this are fucking insane. Incredible achievement from Rai just to be told he’s not English by faceless accounts who didn’t even know who he was last week

@AthelwulfG @adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell For numerous reasons, including one you even refer to yourself, its clearly absurd to conflate "ethnically of English heritage" and "Englishman".

English

Athelwulf Greene@AthelwulfG·1d

@Denoffham @adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell Yes. There's no "Australian" ethnic group other than the aborigines. So ethnically he will be of English heritage, presuming his family haven't mixed with other ethnic groups over the generations. But that is fairly typical of Australias given the history of the country.

@AthelwulfG @adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell So this means that you'd describe, for example, a man born in Australia, whose parents were born there etc, as an "Englishman" (by presumed virtue of the fact his great great great grandparents landed there 200 years ago..)?

English

Athelwulf Greene@AthelwulfG·1d

@adiosmuchachos4 @Petersbrooking @sufcBilly @Tom_Rowsell Skin colour is irrelevant. Poles are also not English. Neither are Italians or Ukrainians etc etc...

@FraserMyers If the burqa is an item of oppression (which historically I'm certain is true), why mock the item, or its wearer, and place the onus upon the oppressed? If women are being *forced* to wear them, then chanting "take it off!" is akin to telling a slave to "take off" their chains.

Fraser Myers@FraserMyers·3d

Imagine being more offended by people mocking a burqa than by the existence of the burqa

Tommy Robinson Unite the Kingdom. It was a matter of time before the Islamophobia would start. It’s sickening behaviour. As Muslims, we shouldn’t have to tolerate this in our home…… England.

Watching films on my phone. I don't do it loads, but I do find myself occasionally doing it, and not just with films I've seen before

An influencer on this site is encouraging conservatives to skip Nolan’s Odyssey and rent Troy instead — a theologically neutered adaptation of Homer — because it photographs better. A perfect microcosm of why the right is culturally bankrupt at the height of our political power.

Ha was going to write something akin to the below to add to the discourse, then realise I already wrote it in FEBRUARY. God, can this film just come out so we can discuss the actual film!

Re: #TheOdyssey, providing race is not a factor in the story itself, the colourblind casting shouldn't really matter as what's being told is a *mythical* tale (presumably spoken in English anyway). The concern should be when it's reality being depicted

@SkyNews Genuine question: Is this the same property in Clacton that he said "It’s her [his partner's] asset. I own none of it." about, or is this a different place?

Labour has 100+ majority, & policies designed to both get the economy back on track AND help the poorest in society. Yes, #Starmer is unengaging & Madelson affair was an awful miscalculation, but rn we need stability & competency, which his govt could bring if given 1/2 a chance

@viking_gumball I actually liked Sinners, but it has two elements of either anti-miscegenation or pro-segregation: How does vampirism (read: whiteness) infect the bar? From Remmick (white) to Mary (mixed) to Stack (black). Who lets vampirism in? Grace (an Asian woman threatened by whites)

What would you say is the most evil movie ever made? Not "ohh it's so bad it's a crime" I mean movies with actively malicious messages, people or production cycles

@unbrokenwasused A fine example of gender ideology being sexist and regressive - this person looks like a woman, therefore must be a woman. Facts are irrelevant, but clothes and hairstyle matter
