    Sure, and I'll even go one further. The people of England themselves aren't like inherently evil. No one group of people is. Literally all the English need to do is stop being such TERFs and nonces, make restitution for the peoples they've exploited over the centuries, and let workers take over the means of production and bam, I would consider them to be very cool.

      An aspect of life under capitalism that is getting little attention despite constantly inducing depression is how butt-ugly it is.

      People should be around nature, art, creativity and good architecture when going about their daily lives, not strip malls, highways and advertising.

        My neighborhood has like 10% police helicopter uptime. This might not sound like a lot, but it fucking sucks.

      I felt that. Everything you said. Being trapped in big cities where most days you can't even watch the horizon because of all those fucking buildings really sucks.

      Any high street beats a string of distanced strip malls and England is pretty connected by bus and rail, easy enough to get out to the countryside by public transit compared to most places (too expensive to take the train far ofc). Still bad but denser, better architecture and more navigable than any overseas Anglo colony

      The real problem with England isn't physical but mental; mean, morose idiot people, drunken, blackout shouting vomiting all over every weekend, superiority complex - confident in lack of spirit and wits, proud of it in fact. Hateful and lonely and they think they're being funny when they're not. And awful weather

      As I get older I believe this more every day. My dad's not an anglo, and he always used to say that as soon as he gets the chance he's gonna fuck off to somewhere hot, because the british weather makes him depressed. I always used to like it - going out in wellies, wrapping up warm, playin sport on the waterlogged pitches. Now as I get older I realize how much I need sunlight and warmth. Everything is better when it's sunny. EVERYTHING. Even just looking out the window and seeing people being happy together.

              Where I am we didn't have a single meteorologically sunny day from November to February. And honestly it didn't bother me one bit, but I know a lot of people get bad seasonal affective disorder.

    These are some very nice pictures. I like how you don't see that many English people, it really helps.

    Don't be fooled Billy. If a cow ever got the chance, he'd eat you and everyone you care about.

    Beautiful is really not appropriate for those photos, it's a cute countryside, quaint, not really beautiful but maybe charming

    :ukkk: the land looks fine, if boring. It's the substantial percentage of inhabitants that look like human beings, but have none of the empathy or compassion, that I take issue with.
