Would be funny if it was any country other than UK saying that lol
It makes it funnier
If I had to choose between being British and American, I think I’d just kill myself.
Sounds like a win for everybody.
Can we watch?
Honestly, right now I’d love to be annexed by Canada.
Or Denmark.
Like. I’d totally help make that happen.
Dane here. while your offer is flattering, we can’t accept as we have our own environmental problems to fix first. We don’t need another dumpster to clean.
But but but… You could clean Texas!
It would require a genocide to clean Texas of all their environmental issues. And as far as I’m concerned, genocide is wrong.
That implies massacring minorities
Genocide is only that when aimed at a race, not a locale
You are free to nuke the whole place by merit of their stance alone
Genocide is any group of people. A culture or national group, religious group, race, identity, or whatever else. If you’re identifying a group of people to destroy (not even just kill, but targeted destruction) that’s a genocide.
That definition is way too broad and ignores why the term exists. Genocide is a specific legal concept from the 1948 UN Convention, not a catch-all word for any group of people you decide to label.
The law only covers national, ethnical, racial, or religious groups because those are the categories that have historically been targeted for systematic annihilation. Political groups were explicitly excluded when the convention was drafted for a reason. If you just define it as any group you want to destroy, the word loses all legal weight and precision.
You can call mass violence against other groups a crime against humanity or a war crime—those are still incredibly serious—but calling it genocide just because it fits your personal preference is factually wrong. Precision matters if you actually want to talk about international law rather than just throwing around emotionally charged terms.
Do you have any actual legal basis for your definition, or are you just making it up as you go?
Yeah, and legally Trump wasn’t convicted of rape, because the court that convicted him had a definition that didn’t match the common usage, which the judge explicitly pointed out IIRC. Legal definitions are just that. They’re legal definitions, not the definition. Here’s the wiki page. It starts by saying “Genocide is the partial or total destruction of a human group, committed intentionally.”
Absolutely top notch shitstirring.

The word “trolling” covers exactly this concept. Unlike the misused term Russian “troll farm”, which is more accurately a hostile foreign psy-op.

No humor like British humor

The Scots and English are different countries
The Welsh too
And Northern Ireland should not be a part of the UK.
They are very much the same country, actually, common misconception amongst sportsballers.
I hear there’s talk of a referendum to change that, but until then:
Wrong
The UK is a tight political union consisting of England and 3 countries who’s populations have never recovered from what England did to them, and consistently vote contrary to it.
What even is that flag on the sticker? I wouldn’t put it past Americans doing this because we absolutely do not want you. You have got to smart yourselves up before you could consider yourself to be annexation worthy
As a part citizen, it’s funny but painful on more than one level. Sidebar, isn’t the UK handling their own colonization by foreigners?
isn’t the UK handling their own colonization by foreigners?
Keep making yourselves known. It’s like y’all just can’t help it.
Y’all keep grouping people together. Also I can’t tease and pike fun?
Poking fun at what?
Sorry, the “hurr durr it was just a joke, I was only pretending to be racist” shit typically doesn’t work here. Most people see right through it.
So that’s a no for prole. It’s not my narrative, go talk to the queens folk about their own news reporting.
