like you inciting violence upon British people for example, and feeling like that’s an okay stance to take

😂😂

Irish famine; Invasion of so-called Australia; Israel’s persecution of Palestinians; Indian-Pakistani conflict. Pick your poison.

I’ll ask you again, are you going to take any responsibility? Otherwise I’m just blocking you, I’m tired of the sealioning now.

I saw someone in a large group chat I’m in use it just the other day, but I have no idea how popular it actually is in the States.

I never said it wasn’t Australians fault as well.

I can both take responsibility…

Edit: You’re doing great mate, keep trying to frame this as my fault.

You’re arguing in bad faith. I have literally, multiple times now, said I take accountability on behalf of my country. I just refuse to absolve yours of guilt and that seems to be upsetting you quite a bit.

Also I forgot that Charles was a British politician and not the King of Australia, a title he holds independently due to the Westminster Act you discussed.*

Jag off mate. I’ve said I’m responsible for my country several times. Do you have any responsibility for yours?

it’s better than “MickyDs” or whatever the americans say 🤭

No.

What the fluff makes you think that I fail to act? You know literally nothing about me. I can both take responsibility, blame YOU and your country, and act to change things for the better. I am pretty consistently out protesting, and out there donating my time and money to causes looking to change the status quo, even though I am disabled and on a pension.

THIS attitude is why people blame your shitty country for these things. Grow up.

There’s no statute of limitations on genocide.

I never said it wasn’t Australians fault as well. This is a really reductive take that shifts the blame for colonisation. Fluffing hilarious that you’re a feddit.uk user. Cope much for your country destroying the world?

Edit: Also, no, the Westminster Act was not full autonomy, it was the dual Australia Acts in both countries parliaments in 1986 that granted that.

Australians were considered British subjects right up until the ‘Australia Act’ of 1986. I still very much blame Britain for much of the way Indigenous Australians have been treated. In the same way that I put a lot of blame on Britain for the current war in Gaza. Or the escalating conflict between Pakistan and India.

…and just how important is it to render foreign domains properly?

This is such a western-centric take, and it makes me quite sad…

Oh no, I absolutely have ancestors in my past that have done horrendous things. And I’m Australian, so they were also British subjects ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As for the executions, well I’d love to get my hands on Charles! #NotMyKing

I don’t know, I still don’t agree with that simply by the fact she’s donated such large sums of money to the cause…

Ireland is absolutely part of the British Isles, just not part of Great Britain. I would say that it’s generally only considered correct to call someone from Great Britain British, rather than the Isles as a whole though. However, in common parlance I would say that people from Scotland and Wales use Scottish and Welsh more than British, with people from England using English and British interchangeably, and people from Northern Ireland (that are unionist anyway) using the term British over Irish. That’s all to say, you’d probably get a smack upside the head for calling someone Irish British, and rightfully so.

Uhm akshually don’t you know that it was a subset of British society and not Britain as a whole. Jeeze, way to not be historically accurate.

While that’s a reasonable take, I think you could selectively render domains in non-latin scripts while blacklisting those greek/cyrillic letters that match latin ones, falling back to the “燋.com” formatting. Though I guess that would be a lot harder.

You’re welcome 😊
