[QUOTE=mdeceiver79;50627126]I blame: Pretty much everyone tbh. Britain has been scammed and we only have ourselves to blame. Britain is the problem here.[/QUOTE] All true. You also missed the part about Labour basically being shit in the referendum. Where the fuck was Corbyn? I like the guy, but he seriously screwed up there.
[QUOTE=Shadow801;50627623]All true. You also missed the part about Labour basically being shit in the referendum. Where the fuck was Corbyn? I like the guy, but he seriously screwed up there.[/QUOTE] Well Corbyn did travel round doing speeches but he refused to join with Cameron's campaign. It would be lose lose for him. Join with Cameron and be seen as the face of austerity britain Dissociate with Cameron and not get any time on TV and get back stabbed by his MPs (would happen anyway) I feel like he didn't do enough, he wasn't ever on TV - partly because the media dislike him partly because he wasn't associated with the remain campaign. All this said now we're out we need a left wing government now. The recession soon to come will be the tories chance to mangle the NHS and cut other public spending. We need protection against that. We need to keep regulations to ensure protection for workers and the environment. I don't want to get swept up with the anti Corbyn stuff because it will be used directly against labour, papers like the sun are pushing it for a reason, they want Labour to rip themselves to pieces in a civil war while the tories get their shit together ready for the next election.

These perps are probably the very same assholes who like to call Muslims terrorists when they themselves are performing an act of terrorism. I bet these rascist assholes are unemployed basement dwellers. What really drives these scumbags to do such things? Immigrants are not the cause of people's unemployment problem.

Immigrants are not the cause of people's unemployment problem.[/QUOTE] There was a time when Malaysia had just achieved indipendence, That Indonesia (under Soekarno) accused Malaysia of being an example of neo-colonised by British. So Indonesia send commandoes into Malaysia for 'confrontation' But that ends well after the troops was subdued. And after Soekarno step down, everything went down smoothly between the 2 country. No hard feelings whatsoever. What just happened is another example of extremism. It's nobodies fault. Its just some people tend to think and act that way. Only difference is In case of Malaysia-Indonesia, the extremist is the leader of a country. This time in UK, its just some hoodlums.
[QUOTE=Trebgarta;50628631]I sincerely doubt you can name Indonesian expansiveness as "extremism" What is next, Colonialism was "extremism" too?[/QUOTE] Extremism, terrorism, just some labels that we use to describe things. It varies between individual perspectives. In this case, I can also possibly be considered an extremist for voicing that kind of opinion towards a country leader. Maybe I was in the wrong. But what I'm trying to say is that, while current condition might makes its easier for some people to do harsh things, they are not a representatives of the whole party. Maybe the blame should be more focal, instead of holding the whole 'leaver' as responsible.

That doesn't mean you can expect leave voters to be able or willing to fix the situation on their own, that's not what it's about. [editline]1st July 2016[/editline] And yeah both extremism and terrorism have pretty clear definitions.
[QUOTE=MrJazzy;50628915] And yeah both extremism and terrorism have pretty clear definitions.[/QUOTE] Extremism and terrorism do have a definition, but to whom we apply them to, is highly dependent on the individual coining the terms.
[QUOTE=ratman;50614990]I've been joking with my ethnic friends through out the brexit that I'm going to have to hide them under the floorboards if the leave vote gets through, just like at the start of inglorious bastards. Never in my life did I think that there would actually be this much of rise in hate crimes and general xenophobia. Perhaps it is just the media are portraying it as though there has been a significant rise. Would be nice to see some statistics or graphs showing the increase in the last week.[/QUOTE] IMO there's a seriously good chance that the media is just cherry picking for ratings.

[QUOTE=Zephyrs;50618443]Aren't the Poles stereotypicaly white as hell? How do you tell them apart from the 'full blooded' Brits?[/QUOTE] It's pretty easy to tell ethnicities at a glance. Or at least areas from where some people might be coming from. It's probably harder for americans since there's a lot more intermixing due to a lot more cultures being pushed into smaller areas. But in Europe - the differences between a czech, northern german, brit or pole are apparrent to a certain degree. Sure there's a number of ethnicities that look almost the same - like czechs and austrians, but that's usually from having a lot of historical mixing.
