haha British rule
Scottish people out here talking shit about British folks, yet in 2014 they voted against being an independent nation.
Y'all are Brits. Accept it.
- One, they're talking about English "people," not British people.
  Two, that still isn't how it works.
  Three, that was before Brexit.
  
  One, why did you quote people?
- Barely, and the referendum would've gone the other way any time after 2016.
  
  Polls show independence was briefly in the lead for a few months of 2020, but has remained consistently behind otherwise since 2014
haha racism rule
- "pretentious dick" isn't a race.
  
  Love how they just call everything racism
  
  This is literally about the nationality of a person (being British). Maybe racism isn't the best word, but it's certainly discrimination.
  
  English though
- Making fun of British people is the morally correct thing to do at all times.
- Yes indeed, and it's not like England has some history with Scotland or anything...
  
  I wasn't aware that I'm somehow more privileged than Scottish people.
  It could be true, but I was under the impression that privilege in the UK is more about your socioeconomic group than it is your physical location - except maybe London, London gets the best of everything, the fecks :-P
- Im always amused watching British people online get pressed by some light banter after their nation spent centuries conquering and subjugating nations around the world. Like, there is no faster way to bunch up a British nationalist panties than by bringing up the falklands, a relatively small war that they ended up wining anyways.
  
  I mean 255 Brits died in that war, that is still very much in living memory.
  Like im the exact opposite of British nationalist, but of course if you're a dickhead about that people are going to get upset. Thats not a "british bad" moment, thats just you being a cunt.
- racism is when Scots hate Brits
  
  Scots are brits
- I'm English. OP can have the E-word pass.
- It's always fair to joke about the British.
- don’t really see how
