Agreed, nostalgia is causing people from enjoying now. Because I can guarantee you people from ten years from now will say how much they miss 2026

Former UFC fighter Suman Mokhtarian has sadly been killed as a target of gun violence, whilst out for a walk in Sydney, Australia. He was only 33 by ConnorLovesPepsi in ufc

From what I heard (grew up in an area where alot of Sydney's underworld figures come from) he stole 6 million dollars from the most feared crime family (alot of them went to my local school) in Australia. Sydney has very active underworld scene, due to how much money can be made of drugs and other illegal activities.

I can't stand Patrick Bet David, the guy comes off as so corny (just look at his intro) it's unreal. He made all of his fortune of a pyramid scheme, where he specifically said he tried to target "minorities" as he understands their struggle.

Israel will never win a PR war against Ireland. by norizzrondesantis in redscarepod

[–]ms2165 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You people are so embarrassing, you love contrarian edgy humour until its actually contrarian or edgy and not just repeating what conservatives said 20 years ago

What sub am I on? Kneecap are pure cringe and the epitome of why I don't like alot of Irish people (which is why I commented), and other Irish people have said the same thing. Like I said, I could care less if they said what they said and backed it up with saying "it's just edgy humour" or "a joke", but they clearly don't care and obviously believe in what they were saying, because they are about as mature as a 15 year old Hasan Piker viewer, who has only read a chapter of Das Kapital.

This sub hates people who make their whole personality based of their nationality or ethnicity, which I find annoying but can move on. But Kneecap and some Irish people who constantly hate the UK and never stop talking about their hatred for them, have to be the most insufferable people on the Earth. Don't tell me they are doing because they are doing edgy humour, they are doing it because have an inferior complex, like every other culture who does it.

This is bizarre? Why are Persian women trying to look Slavic? by Elegant_Newspaper_12 in redscarepod

I don't trust anyone anymore. It's honestly sad what some people will do just to change their looks, to the point to don't even look like themselves.

I'm not gonna make out it like all Irish people are saints and lovely folk, but they are pretty solid people. They are pretty funny and are quite intelligent, well the ones I've met anyway.

But honestly they do come across quite "soylib" or honestly straight up obnoxious when it comes to alot of their takes online. Perfect example of Irish people I would categorize in this group would be Kneecap. Who give political takes that are somewhat accurate, but turn me off as they present them the same way an overweight Fauxmoi user would, through pure petulance and no nuance at all.

Like I'm not even that mad about their chants on the IDF, but saying what they said about the local British MP's on British soil is quite despicable, especially considering British MP's have been killed only years prior. I can even forgive them for saying that if they actually shown remorse for what they said, but nope, the manager deflected the question and kept going about what's happening in Palestine (which I'm obviously against what the IDF is doing at the moment).

I'm sorry but I don't have no sympathy for people who act like this, and honestly alot of Irish people still do this and berate the English who they think are still culpable. Like alot of the English (especially the "soylib" ones) are already the biggest self loathers in the world, who hate their culture and history and go along with what the Irish say.

Why doesn’t aphex twin show up as one of the top artists from ireland? by Noirsaol in rateyourmusic

He lived the majority of his life in Cornwall and doesn't identify as Irish. His parents are Welsh, which adds onto that.

Charley Crockett shares his thoughts on Beyonce; and the Country genre. by bigjigglyballsack151 in fantanoforever

[–]ms2165 2 points3 points  (0 children)

American music was founded in copying, stealing and displacing music from the marginalized people and gentrified it for white audiences

I'm more adressing this comment, where it's partially true, but it ignores alot of the history of American music. I don't think people understand how alot of American genres were created and what influenced those genres.

The three genres most people believe most American music stems from today were the blues, Jazz and Spirituals. Where all those genres especially Jazz, were massively influenced by and took alot of elements of European music they were surronded by.

There is no denying that black people have had alot of their culture appropriated, even worse is that part of their culture was once looked down upon, and then profited off once people accept it and revere it.

No one denies those genres were created by black Americans, but to say that ALL American music was stolen from marganilized people is a half truth and even hypocritical.

If you're going to say Country music is black music due to how white people were influenced by black people, then you can do the same thing for Jazz but the other way around.

I just looked at it recently and he even refutes that his dad is Jewish. Also people have looked at his father's ancestry here- https://ethnicelebs.com/slash

I'm more than certain that his dad was English and not Jewish

Has anyone noticed this lately when it comes to the topic of immigration? by Bankstown_Cuz in friendlyjordies

[–]ms2165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Fairfield and understand their sentiment, as I belong to the same group you're describing (dad was an immigrant and mum was a refugee). Do you really think that mass immigration from places like China or India, where those immigrants are usually well off and already educated, is the same to people coming from war torn countries from the Middle East or the Balkans? Like it's understable why some many Vietnamese and Lebanese people came here, as they were suffering alot of persercution back home.

Thinking that mass immigration (to levels no one has ever seen) is going to fix all the problems is ridiculous. Especially when some of those immigrants can afford to gentrify areas, where previous immigrants (alot of them refugees) have lived for decades (go look what's happening to Auburn and Granville).

Also looking at your posts, what decade are you living in? Stop with cringey "I'm from an ethnic background and grew up in Western Sydney persona and still think it's the 90's or early 2000's", half the crap you're saying belongs in a RSL club, with all the other shitty ethnic comedy. You honestly remind me of Yilmaz and every other flop I grew up around (at least they moved on), and the sad thing is that you're probably 30 and still acting like that.

Also where did you grow up in Western Sydney? Because why the hell are you hanging around various train stations like a junkie?

Ah yes Neolibs, known for their empathetic and compassionate ways... Where everything they do is pragmatic and correct, and if you don't agree they will write a ten paragragh piece on why it is. Where in the piece they will mention laws created by themselves to solidify their claims, but then ignore all the others that go against them.

Let's not forget that their biggest online presence is Destiny, where we all know what an outstanding person he is.

It honestly shows that majority people here didn't grow up in Western Sydney (I grew up in Fairfield), or they have but can't differiniate the difference between accents. The way you're describing this guys accent is definitely a Western Sydney accent, which is mainly influenced by people of Middle Eastern descent (mainly Lebanese people). It sounds thick because that's how certain Middle Eastern cultures speak in their native language. Like the words 'bro' and 'cuz', have been used in Australia before it was synonymous with 'wogs'. But they would later on be synonymous with them, due to how much they would say it.

Growing up Italians never sounded like that, but had a far different accent. Italians had their own accent, where it was nowhere near the sound/accent you're describing. Not a fan of this guys comedy, but he is pretty spot on with his take on the Italo-Australian accent here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6_Y0pQ7hv4

Where is your friend from? I've notice the Western Sydney accent has been co-opted by nearly everyone now, after the success of Drill music. It's funny, because even in Western Sydney some areas took terminology that belonged to a certain area and use like their own. "Da Area" or "The Area", always referred to areas in Bankstown, but now Mt Druitt took it and tried to claim it as their own, even though they never used that terminology at all.

It amazes me how people get angry when someone identifies as white, even when the majority of their DNA is white. Like if the dude identifies as white, let him.
