Awake from opium dream where The Rhineland defeated The Southern Americas @ AssociationFootball & Yellowface is practiced @TheUnionTheatre

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

Rhineland have defeated Brazil 7-1 & Yellowface is being practiced @TheUnionTheatre in the 21st Century. We are in Opium World, friends

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

Have I imbibed too much opium laudanum or is Yellowface alive & well @TheUnionTheatre ? Feels more akin to 1914 than 2014...

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

Mind you, a fictitious oriental super villain feels far less anachronistic in the Land Of UKIP so for that one is grateful

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

Racist politicians, racist TV presenters, foreign books banned in schools. Has the British population spent the last week in an opium den?

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

One awaits the Mummyface performances of Gerard Abasi Butler and Geoffrey Ramses Rush with anachronistic colonial relish Mwahaha!

[The FuManchu Complex @fmccomplex]

A senior Tory wishes to include we hitherto silent & meek people from East of India in "diversity discussions"? One feels suddenly archaic
