What's truly insane about the Colonel Blimp movie is the original cartoon character was basically the 1930's Britain version of the Chudjak

@n_d_wil @QuattroMKII Age = status, balding = age
It wasn't just Samurai loads of civilians shaved their heads (just without the distinctive knot)
English
@QuattroMKII Would you like to autistically explain this to me? I assumed it was to make the guys with receding hair lines feel better. Is that not the case?
English
It's important to distinguish that the anime characters below are Ronin, because employed Samurai are required to have the norwood knot by law.

Very obviously just him telling a British person what he thought they wanted to hear

Duchess of Marlborough asked Czar Nicholas II why Russia wasn't a democracy. His reply: There is nothing I would like better, but Russia is not ready for democratic government. We are two hundred years behind Europe in the development of our national political institutions. Russia is still more Asiatic than European and must therefore be governed by an autocratic government. He went on to explain his absolute power, his daily separate audiences with ministers (no cabinet), and his fears about Russia’s vast, ignorant, superstitious, and fatalistic population.

LOL Jesus Christ that isn’t just pissing on the third rail, that is straight up treason. He’s sticking all of them in, so that he can be king.

@POLREWK0M what's funny is Persepolis literally does demonstrate a commitment to the national project of Iran
English
"she demonstrates no commitment whatsoever to the national project of Iran"

Alain Beidou@avispartan1
The reason Persepolis is liked by Western imperialists despite the author's many explicit anti-Western stances is bc she demonstrates no commitment whatsoever to the national project of Iran, only to the personal hedonic interests of herself and her friends and kin.

For all that he is now so far from his political starting point that one of his previous "essays" bemoaned the fact that the Labour Party exists at all as a mistake, Blair's worldview remains anchored around his past. Old Labour lives rent free in his head forever
English
Tony Blair always uses the word "radical" in a very particular way. For him, his radicalism is defined entirely in relation to the Old Labour Party. Is something similar in some way to Old Labour? Then it's not radical. Is is something different from Old Labour? Then it's radical
James Mills@MrJEMills
Oh, so Tony Blair’s “radical centre” is: - reducing workers’ rights - opposing wealth taxes - axing climate commitments - greater NHS privatisation - toadying up to a Republican US president Not exactly sure where the “radical” part of Blair’s radicalism is... 🤔
English
@OoeyGooey_Louie @HellFire80085 That's based on the British Republican flag designed by the Welsh radical Hugh Williams, which was adopted as a "English tricolour" by the poet William "Spartacus" Linton and any mod using it instead of the cringe Chartist tricolour gets 1000+ golden points
