We’d have got rid of it in 1990 I think if it weren’t for Thatcher. The UK would have had high speed internet from day one, but that stupid bint went “nah…”.

Maybe we could hook people up so as they can feel pain to?

Same for GMT people.

Well the 1% work harder and are smarter than us. Why are you being so unfair?

Every single state, pretty much. Even Nordic countries are going right wing.

Some times I like to wonder if the Tories are right…

Surprise, Sue-fucking-prise.

Doesn’t mean to say that they deserve to die though, does it?

Totally. It’s what a reasonable person would do. I’m sure they’re reasonable changes too.

Needless.

“Our school system”?

Dunno where you’re from, but different countries have different standards of education.

Kinda validating my point. I can’t stand when Americans ignorantly default to assuming everyone is American/knows everything about America.

I always thought it was a way to stay relevant, cause she cant think of any more film franchises to copy, but clearly its been an issue for a while.

Youve phrased it like you think everyone should know about the Kent State shooting. PSA …this is an international website, people dont know everything that happens in the USA.

It did occur to me, but I’ll be honest I was far too deep to change it. Sorry, have a good day.

I feel like what you’ve done is a good thing as it creates discussion.

I read “schooling” as “shooting” and that seemed on point for the US.

I have no problem with paying for the next generations schooling, an educated society is a better place to be (Too bad they’re taught to repeat, not think for themselves.), and they’ll be paying your pension.

You’re talking like everyone is American, and knows all about this. I’m not trying to be a cock, just offering a little insight, it would be a bit like me posting to AskLemmy “what do you think the voting result will be then…is Khan staying?” …3/4s of Lemmy will have no clue what I’m on about.

I’d like to think so but you never know.

100%

Money? No European country will allow that thing.
