@widgetxt@mathewclarke They were defeated by all of the allies, it was a combined effort.
We don't need to give the Soviets their dues literally every single time someone talks about the UK (or US) in WW2.
@cas_rasen@DeptfordWife1 Personally think a lot of people (especially on this site) take the anti-England thing too far, but hard to say it came from nowhere when this sort of patronising view of Scotland as little more than a nation of bitter scroungers is so prevalent.
Bickering is a two way street.
@Yookay_@VerumVulnero1 The amount of people in Scotland who believe this is far dwarfed by the amount of non-Scots who harp on about this legendary victim mentality on here.
@spynosocks@HmsHood473508@ProudBavaria Mods can make their own scenarios though. If you're bound by the WW2 setting, Siam is always going to be surrounded by European holdings for instance.
@Fan26_America Doubtless that among the nationalist movement (especially accounts on here aimed at the Gen X/Boomer demo) there's a problem with this attitude for sure, but it's not the majority view.
I see more foreigners expressing this opinion than Scots. OP is a Slovak.
@DEATHGRINDAZUSA@eccxke Responsibility like what? We have all the same grovelling and apologising as any other western European country.
Unless the main responsibility of a former colonial power is to be subject to hate posts online?
@PoipoleLiker Gen 1 nostalgia baiting isn't what makes a game bad, though?
SV have much less Kanto nods, SWSH still like to partake in it, but both of those games are of a much poorer quality than USUM.
@aStupidGecko@_claypot Other way around, surely?
Gengar, being a Shadow, seems like it only has Poison due to its association with its Gas themed pre-evos. It's never really felt like a Poison pokemon. The only time it's even on a major Poison team is Plumeria in USUM's postgame.
@Nachtel_Hussar@darj_tea Payne, who that article cites, considered the Falange as it was founded to be fascist, but not the Franco regime itself or the gutted version of the Falange that existed under Franco.
@iseenowmyprob I deleted because I couldn't be bothered talking to someone so profoundly retarded
Nice to know our sacrifices are a token to you guys though, some ally!
@bojanglesfan420@OmNi_Blaze@Phil_Lewis_ Your point is basically that because a minority of Tourettes sufferers have verbal outbursts, it's actually justified to judge them for it?
The people fuelling the stigma are people like you, that are so pigheaded that they have an idea about the proper way to suffer Tourettes.
@bojanglesfan420@OmNi_Blaze@Phil_Lewis_ So you're a progressive except in the case of people with Tourettes, who in your opinion should be excluded from spaces because of their Tourettes meaning they might say something offensive? Awesome.
@mimikkiki @morgen_steorra You said, "England has nothing to do with NI".
Bare minimum and nothing are different things, now you're changing your claim. I would also really dispute that CofE/Church of Ireland dominance of the ruling class constitutes minimal involvement.
Source on ancestry claim?
@mimikkiki @morgen_steorra 10x less English than Scots still qualifies as English involvement. Do Englishmen transform into Scotsmen when surrounded by enough of them?

@mimikkiki @morgen_steorra Lowland Scots settlers formed the majority of the population and have left a more lasting cultural imprint, but to suggest England was not involved at all is ridiculous because there was settlement from both countries.
@mimikkiki @morgen_steorra Anglicans formed the ruling class in NI for a time, which would be a weird development for a settlement project solely undertaken by Presbyterian Scots.
"Between 1650-1700, 100,000 British settlers migrated to Ulster, with around half being English."
@mimikkiki @morgen_steorra Settlers in the Ulster Plantations came from primarily Scotland and Northern England. To claim England has nothing to do with Ulster here is as erroneous as the original post claiming Scotland as a victim of colonialism.
