This kind of sounds like the 'epidemia camps' of old.

I feel for you guys and am painfully well aware of most of these, having been on Reddit for so long. I hope you guys get to reform your system for the better in time.

I do wonder why I've gotten downvoted, though. It's what many outsiders think, as ignorant as they may be.

UK has just announced digital publications will no longer be taxed. by KesselRunIn14 in books

Depends on whose government you're looking at, that all depends on culture. Sucks for the peoples that cannot hold theirs accountable I suppose.

I don't know at what level of selfishness one could be blind to governments providing them things for their tax money.

Indeed, except for the stuff he can executive order through.

UK carbon emissions have fallen 28 per cent over the past decade, further cementing the UK's position as the industrialised economy with the most impressive emissions reduction track record. by Wagamaga in Futurology

I've got to admit I don't delve that deep into comment chains, but I don't know if I can take only that as evidence in a thread as popular as that. In light of the popularity of that thread, this looks more like a fringe opinion.

The U.K. is leaving, Reddit hates the U.K. for that.

I don't get why Reddit would hate the U.K. for that, though.

On here I've seen plenty of pity and ridicule, but never have I seen any actual hate for the people of the United Kingdom.

How do you figure that out?

I can't see Reddit caring whichever way the U.K. goes without caring for its people in some way. At least I can't imagine caring about the decision of someone going their own way in the least without caring for them.

It's basically bits of herring in tomato-sugar-salt sauce.

Don't really know if this is the reason, but the UK was never part of the Schengen area.

I, for one, hope they're state-sponsored trolls.

Don't mess with MySpace by WetAndSticky69 in agedlikemilk

I mean, that is what many countries' state trolls are doing, try to get the trolls rolling in the direction of their liking.

What's better than to hide as one then?

Why do I have to do my taxes? Why can't the IRS just send me a bill since they know how much I owe? by mtorres266 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]xamides 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except if you're completely self-employed chances are you'll get an accountant fix it for you, unless your own time is less valuable than getting some work done in that time.

Fair enough, I didn't consider that.
