@NegationF This describes it well. It is a generational thing. It's something you can imagine a Clever™️ person like Stephen Fry saying to own some EDL rube circa 2008.

It’s an artefact of our one party state period in the 00s and 2010s. Once you mentioned the Anglo Saxons and the Jutes you demonstrated superiority over the pissed up EDL yob in your head who can’t name these tribes. The debate somehow fucking stops and we all clap

Has anyone in British journalism heard of 23andMe, Ancestry, etc.? They're acting like this is an intractable problem when it has already been solved by cheap DNA microarrays and modern quantitative genetics. (not my results)

[Tim Shipman @ShippersUnbound]

I’ll be honest, it never once occurred to me that ‘English’ was a race rather than a nationality.

The English are a mongrel race of Normans, Germanic tribes and Anglo Saxons who themselves were a melting pot of old English, Danes etc

With images like this one going viral, Le Pen soon will become a centrist political force in France.

As an outsider who found AI safety two years ago through Yudkowsky, I was really disgusted by the Aella birthday gangbang stuff that started showing up on my timeline and blocked her.

“English” predates “England” as a descriptor of the place where the English live by about a century btw

[proletze 🇻🇦 @prolzate]

@maxtempers As a norfer, any mention of the Tempers evokes awe and terror up here.

@Laocailarry @UtilityMonster2 @it_is_fareed @horton_official Living vicariously through his more successful transatlantic cousins, again. Even American centrists now clown on the British centre-left. They don't want to be associated with them.

[proletze 🇻🇦 @prolzate]

@Laocailarry It's a dumb debate. We can accommodate robust civic and ethnic identities side by side. I think the ethnic people should frame British ethnic identity predominantly in terms of diaspora outreach. That way they seem inclusive and practically-minded.

He is a FUCKING marmot.

[Morrisan15 @morris_que14]

In 1870, at the height of the British Empire's glory, India made up 50% of its GDP. So yes, India quite literally made the British Empire what it was. If this is a point of embarassment for Britbongs that's too bad. History doesn't care about your feelings.

[proletze 🇻🇦 @prolzate]

@SaladBarFan They still ask for the 'English gene' like that's how it works.

Every Andy Burnham tweet: "Families are struggling with high energy bills up and down the country, particularly the northern bit, and that is why I am fixing the price of flakes at 99p".

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

I want to be honest about how we’ve got to a place where British billpayers are paying some of the highest energy costs in Europe.

Over the past 40 years, we’ve given up control of our necessities, outsourced our essentials and privatised the basics. Water, transport, housing. And of course, energy.

Now the public are paying the price. We haven’t invested in the infrastructure we need. Conflict overseas has pushed up energy costs and it’s hurting our businesses and families.

That’s why we need to take back greater control of our energy system.

This week, I announced Great British Grid, which will speed up connections and push down bills.

We’re also giving mayors, local leaders and communities a stronger role. With funding for People’s Power projects, communities will be able to build solar panels on libraries and town halls, hydro schemes in rivers or publicly owned windfarms on local land.

But it’s not just energy we need stronger public control over. It’s also water, housing, transport and care.

So we’re repealing the ban on public ownership of water companies. We’re building more council homes than this country has seen since the end of World War Two.

We’re reforming the leasehold system so families aren’t squeezed for every penny. And we’re opening up home ownership for first time buyers who can’t rely on the bank of mum and dad.

This week I also announced my determination to introduce a National Care Service, to put people above profit and to give pensioners peace of mind.

Together, we’ll rewire the country from top to bottom so that it works for all people in all places.

That is the only way to put Britain back on the right path. It’s the only way to put power back in people’s hands. And it’s the only way we will bring hope again.

[Sam Bowman @s8mb]

This is, IMO, a pretty miserable calculus. I don’t want to have to beg for access to economically critical technologies. This is one reason to build a lot of compute now so that we have some leverage if it comes to that.

[NPRG @CptHastings1916]

Tucker Carlson doing the nudge nudge wink wink maybe the wrong side won eh about WW2 vs. Rees-Mogg just repeating the same old Good Vs Evil script has a distinct can't they both lose somehow feel.

@Communism_Kills Wasn't big Yahu at the U.N. ranting about British and French colonialism the other day?

[proletze 🇻🇦 @prolzate]

Other mixes can be too ambiguous. Anglo-Indians often look like swarthier Kate Middletons.

[proletze 🇻🇦 @prolzate]

One of the best mixes is 3/4 Anglo, 1/4 Indian. Idk why exactly, but it just works.

[TimeStealer @StealerTime]

Pictures taken 20 years apart. Peak Anglo-Indian excellence.
