These Leftists wonder why we think they hate us.
It's because you do.
The contempt Sharon said "There's no fuckin' tea shops" is appalling. It was very much like, "Thank God that's fucking dead and never coming back."
We can, actually, resist change that you use as a weapon against us. It was not change that naturally happened. It was a change that was directly inflicted upon innocent people as a weapon. None of it was inevitable, you're just evil and you hate us and want to see everything we built destroyed in race-riots between foreigners. You don't want them to integrate or assimilate. You just don't want to look at us anymore.
As if English Tea and Crumptets is a problem.
I'm with Jordan that English food looks like crap. But I'm also not prepared to stand there and say, "Good, time to purge that with hummas"
More people should read Orwell's essays--not just "Politics and the English Language" but his essays from his "As I Please" articles on English life and like this essay here on "British Cookery.": https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwell/essays-and-other-works/british-cookery/
It's a charming little snapshot of English life during WW II and makes the British style of cooking roast beef and game appear quite appetizing. A sample quotation:
"No one who has not sampled Devonshire cream, stilton cheese, crumpets, potato cakes, saffron buns, Dublin prawns, apple dumplings, pickled walnuts, steak-and-kidney pudding and, of course, roast sirloin of beef with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes and horseradish sauce, can be said to have given British cookery a fair trial."
I feel that we have similar problems between the English and the Americans. We don't really see each other's actual cuisine. We just see each other's common foods.
