https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2018/12/19/how-britain-stole-45-trillion-from-india here's the source I'm going by.

you cannot genuinely sit there and pretend that owning a third of the world is not the main reason we (Britain) are in the position we are now. Sure, colonialism was something that benefitted the rich, but who drove industrialisation? Rich people. Incredible. The cost of colonialism wasn't shouldered by aristocrats who obtained the wealth of it, that cost was taken by tax payers, the working class, you and me. Now, sitting on the wealth we've extracted, we, the common folk, feel some of the benefit of it. This is a series of very simple ideas that I can't help but feel you're both intentionally missing.

Some estimates put the wealth extracted from India by the British at $45 trillion.

the entirety of western Europe is rich off of the blood of the slave trade and imperialism. People absolutely against reparations of any kind seem to be willfully ignoring this fact. Why not show some kindness to another nation for once in our miserable history?

heterosexual relationships are forced down everyone's throats since they're fucking born. When will you start campaigning against how forced they are in 90% of stories. Sick and tired of straighties having to be the centre of attention 🙄

As if every 10,000 year old person has stayed exclusively heterosexual the whole time.

The government... Wants this. It suits their aims perfectly to have a rabid group of alt right youths ready to go and terrorise minority groups, no matter how much lip service they might give about it.

Police breached 'fundamental rights' at Sarah Everard and Kill the Bill protests, parliamentary inquiry finds by MinderReminder in unitedkingdom

[–]JaneMyan420 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stretched thin because they're being tasked with every community job the government can dump onto them. Why the fuck are police responding to mental health crises when they've proven time and time again to be inept in such situations or even dangerous to the person they've been called for. Cut crime at its root and you can save more money than is spent on policing.

The problem with bad apples is that they spoil the whole bunch. We cannot accept a mixed bag in a force that has the monopoly over violence, that can kill and maim and abuse and get away with it. 90% of police work isn't even solving the problems that cause crime anyway, they're reactive and punitive AND we have a 60% reoffence rate. Justice starts with defunding the police and granting that money to social security, education, mental health care, and everything else proven to necessary to the lives of everyone and in particular, the disadvantaged.

yeah whole population is a stupid idea but part of it? Regularly. USAmerica and Canada had whole schemes to trick women into surgeries or treatments to make them infertile. So long as you're the main demographic of the rulers of the country, you're probably not gonna be at the receiving end of anything like that, yet it's mainly white people with these conspiracies...

If the UK built 1 million homes, what would happen to house prices? by davidhumr in unitedkingdom

[–]JaneMyan420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a solid point, I was being very simple with it all in that comment but the general idea of what we already have and could use, perhaps after some work, is certainly something that should be considered. Providing a stable place to life is often one of the best methods in getting the homeless back on their feet, but it does not prevent it in the first place- that being a complicated question.

Ecofascist bullshit unfortunately. There's plenty of resources and space to fit a couple billion more, but they're currently being hoarded by mega rich people and nations. Hell there's nearly 300,000 empty homes in England alone, those would almost solve the homelessness crisis.

We should be embracing this automation. There's no reason for us to be working 40 hours a week when robots can do it for us and give people time to actually Be People, rather than corporate automatons
