Let’s see if any Lemmy users are able to correctly identify why this is happening. Bonus points for American-Style ignorance

Oh please, another hapa with an identity crisis

Well he is a politician, so its fairly likely this is something politicial…

I’m surprised you genuinely believe this. Western sensibilities absolutely value this centrally.

That’s because they are English, and have English names. English names are over-represented in Hollywood for obvious reasons

Eww

This is a great discussion for the long term, but conservative rule must end. Labour is best positioned to actually beat them and are the better option.

Just a normal, well-adjusted lemmy comment definitely not made by a chronically online person with little to no real life experience…

Human rights, for murderers, all the way to people who marginally disagree with you politically is the foundation of a civilised society.

Oh bless your soul. He won’t get killed in Norway.

It’s always an interesting discussion when we raise the question of:

If people who are born with disabilities and intellectual impairments get special treatment, what is the threshold for being so stupid that you can’t be considered responsible for your actions (or be expected not to be manipulated or misled)?

There is a strong argument that people who aren’t that smart can’t really be held accountable for their actions, as its beyond their control.

Obesity is a bodily state based on inputs and outputs

Mental health episode, nothing to see here

It sounds like a stupid error made in the heat of the moment from the story description. Still, she must be held responsible for those men

Xenophobia is irrational fear. There is plenty of rational fears, particularly for working class people who see their existence challenged on a daily basis.

What the general narrative suggests (and what you seem to be approaching here too) is disingenuously characterising much of this fear as one of superiority - or in other words predatory, superior views and behaviour. It’s nearly always fear of the unknown, or of threats, whatever those might be.

Could you unpack this a bit for discussions sake

Unpopular take incoming: The Left is principally made up of people who are Agreeable, so they want to help others rather than win resources over others. What happened is the Left are unable to draw lines and limits on certain issues for fear of causing pain. The end result is this alienates a lot of swing voters, often in the working classes.

The Left has always been a haven of the middle classes. They become so preoccupied with calling working class people bigots / stupid, that they forget that the working classes often feel the impact of politics more strongly and are more incentivised to vote.

This is an issue with the left deviating from reason and reality due to an increasing population of younger left wing supporters who have barely spent any time in physical reality, being the most online generation yet. Some of the physical realities that affect the largely natively white working class population in western european countries simply do not occur to these middle class, left wing people.

Migrant workers competing for jobs and class (being told they are better than you and being passed over on jobs by them), eco friendly and green societal initiatives making things often less functional and more expensive, etc etc.

One could blame the ruling classes for some of these elements but truth be told, the bottom half of the middle classes start feeling these effects, they start to see a different perspective too.

Politics has always, and will always follow Economics.

This and your username simply reads as short-sighted, uneducated and immature. Not all change is good, and by definition, some things being conserved is good. However, the balance must be struck, and in the UK we have a long and reasonable history of it ocillating between polarities every few years.

However, 23 years of Conservative rule is not anything close to balance. Austerity and all. Change is sorely needed. The profiteering and upward soak of money must tilt in the other direction for a while, for the sake of people like in the original post.

Fuck you

Reasonable. Im sure my assertion wasnt 100% watertight
