For britain to not become the new japan. I don't care how unique you think you are being a tea-a-boo but you're not. Britain is shit, their media is shit, their culture is backwards, and you are not special for watching their "Quaint" bullshit.

on the other hand, you're not special for being an aggressively awful poster.

DA

tea-a-boo

Haha, so stealing this. It's perfect.

Pretty sure I made that word up, so credit goes to me. ;)

I dunno, I've definitely seen the word in a lot of places other than here.

does this count as racism? or is it something else when it's random hate for a country as a whole? just general assholeness? bigotry? stupidity? obvious childishness? general poorly done trolling?

Xenophobia, technically. I can't decide if this person is actually xenophobic, trolling, or a little bit of both.

ayrt Thank you, I knew there would be a word for it but my brain was blanking. I'm thinking a lot of the Troll side and a little of the Xenophobia side.

Oh grow the fuck up. Yeah anything-aboos are annoying but the "STOP LIKING THIS. LIKING THIS IS BAD" people are even MORE annoying. At least MOST of the "weaaboos" and "teaboos" are pretty young and grow out of it.

you do realize that some people in fandom are *gasp* from Britain? That some people on FS are from Britain even. I know I know, mind blowing.

Tell us more about your hateboner. Do you beat off to fantasies of punching the Queen?

You really hate that it's called Great Britain, don't you?

"Backwards"? So the US, with its right-wing politics, many states' refusal to allow abortion, its gung-ho, "fuck yeah! America!" nationalism, is progressive. Its appalling history of genocide and fact that it took decades longer than us to abolish slavery and started a civil war over it means that America is progressive. The increasingly tight measures its intelligence agencies are taking to limit privacy are progressive. The fact that I see "liberal" used much more as an insult by Americans than Britons means that the US is progressive. The fact you have no political equivalent to the Labour Party and "union" is a dirty word means the US is progressive.

I'm seeing a small problem or two with your argument here.

Make snide jokes about our supposed repression and our class system - yours is still alive and well; make another "white trash" joke and then say otherwise - but don't call us backwards.

We may have had some stupid Prime Ministers, but our people never allowed George Bush into power. We may have a traditional monarchy, but their power is most certainly waning.

I'm not usually a patriot, but damn, this makes me want to write a sternly-worded letter. I don't care if you're trolling, I needed to say this. We may do it fondly, but Brits regard America as the embarrassing cousin nobody invites to weddings.

Is this pasta or are you just massively replying to the wrong post?

Misfire.

Everything you said became invalid the minute you assumed Brithater was an American. Americans are way down at the bottom of the list of people with reasons to hate the British.

y'all motherfuckers did run a massive and deeply repressive and exploitative colonial empire for like a century and a half - one of the largest and most successful in history, which caused the deaths of a shitload of people. and yet you're still willing to pop off about the glorious progressive legacy of Britain, and throw words like "genocide" at other countries like the US.

just goes to prove that British society as a whole is still enormously hypocritical, but then I guess that's why you guys were so successful at conquering, murdering, and stealing from most of the world for so long. because you're vicious lying murderers.

Are we Brits allowed to like our own stuff? And discuss it here? Or this this comm exclusively American?

Only self-hating Brits are permitted. Please submit your signed affidavit stating that you hate tea.

Especially given how very little is made these days that doesn't involve production houses in almost a half-dozen countries.

... are we talking about Britain Britain or Hollywood Britain? What you described most definitely sounds like the latter.
