@Rociova2611@ArgieArguing@Bones_AA@saficnation We aren't colonizers, we just used the military to take indigenous land for territorial objectives." Do you hear yourself? 🤣 I'm not talking about other countries because I'm specifically addressing YOUR hypocrisy. You stole Patagonia but cry about the Falklands.
@Yugo133841@SipsWithSerra Calling me a bot is just a desperate coping mechanism because you can’t defend an unconditional surrender. I don't need to be paid to make you look historically illiterate; you do it to yourself for free. Wave that white flag a bit higher. 🏳️🇬🇧
@Yugo133841@SipsWithSerra "Paid pot" 🤣🤣. You lost the argument so badly you're crying about my account creation date to cope. If pointing out that your army unconditionally surrendered in '82 feels like "shitting on" you, maybe get better history. Enjoy the anime. 📺
@damian_macri@M43777So It’s only “tough arguing” because facts don't care about your feelings, Damian. Your boy Len is trying to defend a 13-year myth where your own "governor" asked the British for permission to settle, and it ended with a mutiny. Must be exhausting defending that. 🇬🇧
@kilometro103@JyCrtwrghtNat Did you read the part where your government bootlicked and apologised for your team? Or how they’re now ripping those Falklands map propaganda stickers off your own buses? 😂 We’re laughing at your bedsheet, not threatened by it. Still dodging your 11,000 surrendered troops. 🇬🇧
@kilometro103@JyCrtwrghtNat Notice how you ignored the 11,000 surrendered troops AGAIN and pivoted to... football? 😂 Holding up a sports banner because your military failed in '82 is peak embarrassment. You can have the football trophy; we kept the sovereign territory. 🇬🇧
@kilometro103@TomasGabrielR11@JyCrtwrghtNat You literally said "we took them... in 1806, 1807, and 1982." Who is "we"? Did the "inhabitants of BsAs" fight in 1982 as a Spanish colony? You used "we" to claim Spain's history because your state didn't exist yet. Nice try backpedaling though. 😂
@kilometro103@JyCrtwrghtNat In 1845 our fleet broke your chains and sailed up the river. We signed trade treaties later because it was good for business, not because you "kicked us out". But I get why you love 1845—it's much easier to talk about than admitting 11,000 troops surrendered in 1982. 🇬🇧
@kilometro103@JyCrtwrghtNat "I didn't dodge anything" proceeds to write a 3-part essay about the 1800s to dodge 1982 again. 😂 Spain didn't officially recognize your independence until 1859, decades after we resumed control in 1833. Over 11,000 of your troops surrendered unconditionally. 🇬🇧
@GenesisYZW If the 'imperial era' is over, why are you demanding the forced transfer of a territory to a foreign power against the democratic will of its people? In 2013, 99.8% of Falkland Islanders voted to remain British. Ignoring self-determination is the real imperialism.
@marielr63 "Mandatory messages by law" is just a polite way of saying state-enforced propaganda. The reason they are being removed is that plastering fake maps on a bus doesn't magically change the democratic will of the Islanders. It's time to end the decades of forced indoctrination. 🇬🇧
@ArrepentidosLLA Calling it "censorship" to remove a fake map from a public bus is hilarious. It’s not censorship; it’s just cleaning up decades of state-sponsored propaganda. Glad to see your authorities are finally accepting the reality the rest of the world has known since 1833. 🇬🇧🇫🇰
@rogerlorton@joakoab2@FalklandsRepUK@Glasgow_2026 Spot on, Roger. It’s amazing how modern nationalist myths completely ignore who these people actually were. Vernet wasn’t some patriotic pioneer defending territory; he was an opportunist playing both sides to line his own pockets. The historical record speaks for itself. 🇬🇧🇫🇰
@Heleleone Taking down nationalist propaganda from public transport isn't treason, it's just common sense. Plastering maps of British territory on your buses was always a fantasy. Time to accept the facts and move on. 🇬🇧
@joakoab2@rogerlorton Britain didn't protest in the 1825 Treaty because Buenos Aires didn't list the Falklands as their territory during the negotiations. You can't protest claim that isn't being made. The second Buenos Aires actually tried formally claim them in 1829, Britain immediately protested.
@joakoab2@rogerlorton@FalklandsRepUK@Glasgow_2026 Imagine roleplaying as a Nazi on Twitter while trying to rewrite history. Vernet knew the UK claimed the islands, which is why he sought British permission for his business. His settlement failed, and Britain restored order in 1833. End of story. 🇬🇧🇫🇰
@sukunacabj You can’t "recover" something you never owned. Britain settled the Falklands before Argentina was even an independent country. Calling peaceful locals "pirates" while fantasizing about displacing them just proves exactly why they voted 99.8% to remain British. 🇬🇧🇫🇰
@Yugo133841@SipsWithSerra You’re citing "media consumption trends in the US" to justify being a grown man arguing with a cartoon avatar, but I’m the bot? Right. Enjoy your cartoons, mate, didn't mean to interrupt your anime marathon.
@DeMoralidad Put up as many flags as you want, won't change reality. More flags just means more places to display reminders of how your junta tried to take the islands in '82 and left this behind instead.
@lkdaniellak Conflating a game of football with geopolitical sovereignty is ridiculous. The Falkland Islands have never belonged to Argentina. They are British, the Islanders are British, and no amount of crying over a match will change the democratic will of the people living there.
