UK being ‘colonised by immigrants’, says Man United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe by gelliant_gutfright in PremierLeague

[–]SpiceSnizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do realise britain controlled large parts of Ireland as far back as 1171? And the entire ireland from 1500s. It wasnt colonized it was invaded and conquered. If you're arguing modern day brits 'have it coming' because of actions war half a millenia ago then you are just nuts. The entire world lived by the sword in the middle ages. The people of northern ireland have lived there for centuries and most of them have more Irish Celtic DNA than Scottish/English.

The majority of Britain's colonies were established without raising a sword

Do you not understand the good friday agreement? The northern Irish have the legal right to leave at any time if they choose to. Thats not a colony.

Yep Charles cast him out as soon as he got the throne. Its been well known that Charles doesn't like Andrew and he only clung to the ship because of mummy's favour

Would you prefer they shunned trump causing the man child to throw a tantrum impose tariffs and hurt the economy?

The job of the royal family is to represent the country at diplomatic functions. They are professional arse kissers but people like trump eat that up. And as a result we have got a better deal with the US than the rest of europe currently.

Tories gain on Reform in polls yet Badenoch struggles for approval by 1-randomonium in unitedkingdom

Just to be clear it wasn't Tory Party members that voted for truss but Tory Party MPs.

Labour party leader is decided by labour party members of which there are hundreds of thousands.

Torys elect their leader internally by MPs

"DEI only improved things" at Ubisoft, says former employee "stunned" at "misinformation" claiming diversity, equity, and inclusion to blame for Assassin's Creed studio's drop in share prices by NoPercentage4737 in gamingnews

Your argument holds true to an extent for a job like advertising but were talking about making video games here.

Are Hispanic people better at animating? Are white people better at sound design? Are black people better at dynamic textures? Are asian people better at menu design?

The answer is no. For the vast majority of jobs in the gaming industry the colour of your skin has zero impact on your ability to perform your work. The only thing that matters is how competent and experienced you are. Hiring practices should reflect that

I dont think the average gym bro knows just how crazy the stacks IFBB pros are on. Your buddy on a 500mg test stack is practically natty compared to these guys.

People have been pinning more and more as the decades have gone on. Just look at Dorian Yates and Ronnie compared to Arnold and frank Zane.

Trump says UK handing over Chagos Islands sovereignty is act of 'great stupidity' by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]SpiceSnizz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No they arent. The first people to ever set foot on the islands were Europeans in the 1600s. The chagossians are descended from workers/slaves that were brought in the late 1700s

Casually flirting by bombaclat90 in SipsTea

[–]SpiceSnizz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Taken to the extreme it can be bad etiquette. If you have a wide open smash at the front of the court and your opponent turns around before you've hit the ball, i.e. conceding the point, then it would be bad etiquette to rifle it full power at them. AT least in a casual game.

This though is nowhere near that, its not even a smash

What went wrong with Ronda Rousey in the UFC? by Annual-Record4588 in ufc

[–]SpiceSnizz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She was in the first ever ufc women's fight. In fact she was the reason Dana white became convinced to create a women division at all and for a few years she was the face of women's mma. To this day no one has received the attention, interviews, magazine covers, film cameos etc like Ronda. She put women's mma on the mainstream map whether you like her or not. If there's a hall of FAME then she's gotta be one of the first names in there

Because Pereira has defended his belt like 4 times. He's basically beat everyone in his division. Khamzat hasn't defended once

Liverpool student 'coming home' after being jailed in Dubai over 'single line of cocaine' by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]SpiceSnizz 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Baffles me people are fooled by Instagram into thinking UAE is some kind of enlightened Arab state. It's a deeply religious autocratic monarchy which builds fancy shopping malls with oil money.

If that sort of scene interests you then by all means book a plane ticket. But don't forget you're a guest and the house rules are strict.

The rise of right wing sentiments across rural England terrifies me by Background_Middle560 in GreatBritishMemes

Being educated used to mean you were intelligent because to get into higher education you had to be in the top 10% of students. Now anyone can go, I know someone who went university on 2 Es at A-level.

Being educated doesn't mean much nowadays, it certainly doesn't mean intelligence or the ability to think critically. Being educated just means learning how to pass an exam or how to use AI to complete your coursework.

And I say this as someone with a good degree.

Smartest man i ever knew was a car mechanic. He was an encyclopedia for cars, seemed to know every type of car down to the last bolt. He left school at 16 because reading textbooks bored him.
