This guy btw @/socsoyboy - literally every time I show Americans holding court on my country any benefit of the doubt I’m punished for it, it’s pathological

I have interacted neonazis on this website but an American telling me they dont want me to “infect” them with my imperialism after my “uncalled for moralising” about using English and British interchangeably is one of the most noxious things anyone has ever said to me on here 💀
English
Well technically the reason he gave was jot wanting to give in to my efforts to “infect” him with my imperialism 🥴

Just had an American lecturing me about how the Falklands are an English political project and then block me for pointing out the difference between British and English because doing that is apparently endorsing imperialism 🤷🏼

@Pepethebord Expecting Argentina to follow the same rules as everyone else in the world cup isn’t imperialism sorry, cope and seethe lol
English
@antonerable I don't care what country you're from; if you justify British imperialism, you're either English or an idiot. And it seems like you're confusing Argentina with the US.
English
‘I live in the UK and everyone has been living to me but now they want disciplinary action against the Argentine football team for breaking the rules and flying a politically inflammatory banner on the pitch, this is imperialism’ genuinely leave lol

Vivo en UK, hasta este momento todo el mundo fue amoroso y abierto conmigo. Perder les voló la fina capa de globalización que tapaba su imperialismo y ahora me dicen en la cara que somos malos ganadores por poner la bandera de Malvinas,me y que ojalá nos baneen del mundial.

@Pepethebord I am not English and every other South American country in the cup managed to not pull a stunt like this, the Argentine claim on the Falklands is a fascist revanchist ethnic cleansing project and the only thing Argentina has surpassed anyone in is its enthusiasm to shelter Nazis
English
@antonerable You only need to lose one match to prove that you are the same racist, imperialist country as always. You view South America as inferior and cannot stand being surpassed time and time again.
English
Can American ‘leftists’ who support Argentina’s claim to the Falklands explain why they support Puerto Rico statehood or, for that matter, Hawaiian statehood?

Multipolarity is real, its just all poles are evil
🇪🇸 Woland 🇵🇸@stendhalist
Can you believe the "multipolarity" people still exist
English
@socsoyboy Like this is a reductionist concept of imperialism that’s comparable to larpers here in Scotland who insist Scotland was a colony or a victim of British imperialism because Scotland became part of the UK in that period
English
@antonerable ‘neutral’ was bad phrasing, i’ll go with the uk over argentina if i have to choose. but in what world are the falklands not an imperial relic? they were settled by the UK during its empire days.
English
One of these things is self determination on the part of the only community that has ever lived on those islands continuously and the other is a fascist revanchist project of expansion by military force and the implied threat of ethnic cleansing
How can you be neutral on those?
English
@socsoyboy Because imperialism requires a specific relationship between peoples, power and capital and not everything a given state does is imperialistic because it happened to occur during that period?
English
@socsoyboy They’re get away, they’re not an imperial relic because they’re far away, I’m Irish I have no time for British Empire apologia but you’re saying your ‘neutral’ between a fascist revanchist expansion project and self determination because of the aesthetics of it on the world map
English
@antonerable i wouldn’t support any argentine invasion or anything, and i’ll concede that the uk has a stronger claim than argentina does, but i’m not just gonna full-throatily endorse the UK’s claim to islands on the other side of the world that are a relic of their empire days.
English
@socsoyboy @Settch3n @ideanoc17 Sorry this is still an insane take and I’ve lowk lost a bit of respect. Yes the British empire existed but the British claim on the Falklands isn’t imperialist and you’re ‘neutral’ between self determination and a revanchist project which effectively demands ethnic cleansing?
English
@Settch3n @ideanoc17 upon further reflection, i’m neutral on the falklands. i don’t like the idea of former empires having overseas territories, but i also don’t like the idea of argentina taking over islands that were never really theirs to begin with.

Let me not mince my words: Keir Starmer's reign has been a jolt from one calamity to another. However, there has been one shining light. The evolution of the Department for Science and Technology. @andyburnham, potentially closing this would be a disaster. Talent, would leave. Funding would leave. And it would leave the UK in a more precarious position than ever. Andy, do not do this. Invest in the future.

@redelitist It’s not even a Trump cultism thing either it doesn’t seem to break down partisan lines a lot of them just are genuinely oblivious
English
@redelitist Literally yes, they are, I noticed this a few months ago when one of my posts about it went viral and Americans in my replies were universally totally oblivious when I referenced the global energy crisis caused by the war
Most Americans seem to think the war was over months ago

This is made much funnier by the fact he has come to power through a coup without having stood at the general election or even a leadership election
