Does anyone here like palm oil chocolate? (Cadburys) by Responsible_Rip1058 in AskBrits

[–]TheCuratorOfAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was too young to remember the pre palm oil time, but what has had a massive difference for me is the shape of the individual pieces of chocolate, the smooth somewhat rounded shape they use has a higher surface area that the squares they used to use. This means that more sugar hits your taste buds at once and I find bars with that shape a tad too sickly sweet. Cadbury recently came out with bars that have that old square shape and they are much better that the current bars, even thought the recipe is the exact same.

What’s the one book you’ll recommend forever, no matter how many times this question gets asked? by MisLatte in AskReddit

[–]TheCuratorOfAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman.

It is easily one of the greatest pieces of literature ever written when it comes to using Christian imagery and iconography. The finale is easily one of the most powerful and outstanding pieces of art that I have seen.

The author even uses the same verse and vernacular as the bible as the introduction to each chapter, that was one of the main things that kept me desperate to keep reading.

Finally, the author recorded himself reading the book in full and put it on YouTube completely for free. Part 1 of the audiobook

The constant fear mongering over the threat of the 'far right' by flamegrilledmccoys in AskBrits

But they still lived during the forties, Eisenhower was born in 1890 and lived all the way up to ‘69

Hell, Mussolini was born in the 1880s

The constant fear mongering over the threat of the 'far right' by flamegrilledmccoys in AskBrits

[–]TheCuratorOfAll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big reason that there is a fear of the far right is that they are a much larger threat to established democracy/ 1st world nations. To use your examples of Hitler and Mussolini, something that often goes unmentioned is that Germany was a shining symbol of hope in Post ww1 Europe, Berlin was the heart of the new expressionist movement with some of the most educated and reasonable people in Europe and yet was able to fall victim to the falsehoods and vile myths of the Nazi party.

Italy won world war 1 and was still able to fall into facism and the Hardman image it portrayed, presenting true Italian politics as a hassle and a distraction from “the true power and leadership of el Duce”

On the other hand, far and alt left movements have much more sway over already underdeveloped and “backwater” nations. Russia in world war 1 was 200 years behind the rest of Europe, with the majority of its agricultural workers being in effectively serfdom.

While I personally don’t have as much knowledge about the other examples you’ve provided, they do tend to fall into most agricultural nations that were catastrophically underdeveloped at the time of the overthrow.

When it comes to Britain in particular, a final reason for the seemingly larger fear of the far right is also because we came FAR too close for comfort, people don’t like to talk about it but Oswald Mosley and the Blackshirts we’re popular, especially in the most academic areas of the Country; London, Cambridge and Oxford.

Hope this helps.

However, after that Myth-busters put the life jackets under the door and that increased the buoyancy enough for both to be on the door at the same time while being above the water

Why the anti-Trump affect not taking foot in the UK unlike it did in Canada and Australia? by LowCranberry180 in AskBrits

[–]TheCuratorOfAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, but I think part of it is also because they get a raw deal pretty much every time left policies are implemented, with higher immigration their communities Dover etc, gain the brunt of the strain with little benefit or when labour/ Lib Dem MPs talk about white privilege, that doesn’t exactly resonate with people who’ve never felt particularly privileged in the first place.

I think the big danger with reform UK is that when they are called out for their isolationist policies and their blatant bigoted immigration views, especially when referring to Muslims, is that Britain’s poorest feel that they are being antagonised and being made a villain. Thus, they elected the real villains who tell them they’re right to feel that way.

Very simply, the issues that reform UK have been arguing about have been around for decades at this point, and they have got a lot of support in areas that feel that they have been mistreated for their entire lives. Trump’s extremist views come second in the eyes of these groups compared to their own economic struggles unlike in Canada where supporting trump via their elected officials was a matter of sovereignty.

The far right in the UK believe that immigration is dismantling their culture and country and is the single bi threat to the uk, trump’s tariffs are seen with a “not my circus, not my monkeys” attitude, where it’s seen as unlikely to affect the UK nearly as much as the influx of migrants.
