It’s a single country with a single currency, a single government, a single history, and a single language. Yes there’s a lot of variance within the country, but it’s really nothing compared to visiting Europe.

What about the giant colourful letters saying MARIO PARTY makes you think the isn’t a Mario game?

I’m assuming the person you’re imagining to be objectively bad is either literally Hitler or a skinhead neonazi with swastika tattoos and a history of violence, right? What about people who joined the Nazi party because the alternative was having their lives destroyed, or the kid with a bad home life who was radicalised by a gang of thugs who are his only friends? They’re both fascists and victims of fascism, where do you draw the line at who should be killed?

Obviously most people agree that WW2 was justified to stop the Nazis conquering the world, but you can’t just say “it’s OK to kill someone because they’re X”, because then you just need to label whoever you dislike as part of that out-group and suddenly you’ve justified killing whoever you want.

It’s never fine to say “it’s fine to kill all X”. You need to stop fascists, but you can do that without fucking killing anyone you’ve decided is evil.

they are when the folks they killed were fascists

Ah but it’s OK because the people I killed were all baddies!

I’m in Britain, things did get very slightly less bad this year!

Hey Uncle Sam, the USA isn’t the whole universe!

Alright, alright, the shurethra if you want to get technical

but why pick up the phone at all?

Because sometimes it’s someone actually calling for you

Don’t worry friend, by asking this clarifying question we already know your answer is ‘a sufficient amount’

You’ve got me there

Relevant xkcd, you were warned about this at least a decade ago

I don’t think there’s anything “fringe” about QM

This has got to be bait, it’s like a yank wrote every point deliberately wrong

The yanks were fed up of being the geopolitical bad guys and the only other counties they could think of were the UK and France

Yeah, afraid so

I believe individually packaged tablets actually do help reduce overdoses because you can’t just chug the whole bottle in one go. Yes it’s more wasteful but it does save lives.

Bit harsh, brain boy doesn’t even have the perm

Please explain the current inequalities black and ethic minorities face.

I wish I could also thank you for a proper reply, but it really seems like you’re taking the piss. If you don’t even understand that racism is a thing, then it’s not really worth the effort of trying to explain any of this to you.

Research has shown that students from Black minority and ethnic (BME) backgrounds are less likely than white students to achieve a first or upper second class degree, despite high level entry qualifications. Deep rooted inequalities and systemic racism contribute to this. Furthermore, this can lead to differences in employment outcomes between white and BME students long after graduation.

Imagine we have a student from a disadvantaged background. They win a place at university and they receive the tuition fee loan and maintenance loan from student finance. In the majority of cases, these loans will not cover their living costs and this is why 67% of students now have to work part-time while they study. If you cannot rely on the bank of Mum & Dad, the pressure of studying and working to cover your costs such as food, books, equipment, travel and accommodation can take its toll on your studies. 79% of students now say they worry about money constantly.

Of course, scholarships do not have to be exclusively offered to BME students. They can also be used to achieve other diversity targets, such as attracting women into STEM or disadvantaged students in to the professions.
