The British Culture and its Stockholm Syndrome * 3
    #23739054 - 10/15/16 01:52 AM (7 years, 3 months ago)

The British Culture and its Stockholm Syndrome

In England the taxes are so high its insane cost of living compared to anywhere else in the world.  This creates massive problems for its residents.  The people are so unhappy but they don't realise it because most of them are not well travelled enough to know any different.  How could they possibly travel when being financially raped everyday anyway?  It certainly can appear difficult to the majority who cannot afford to do anything than merely exist pay cheque to pay cheque.

The strangest thing about the British culture though is that the people here defend the extreme taxes.  Hence my title and the reference to Stockholme syndrome.  Extreme taxation isn't a good thing to me.  I am British but I cannot communicate these thoughts with any of the people around me when I try.  The culture here is to defend the high taxation like its your national pride at stake.  Its quite rediculous when looking back on it.

Sometimes it takes leaving a situation before you can really look back and see what was happening.



I'm living in Spain now and we don't have council tax here.  My rent is 250 euros a month.

You know it my friend.

I can help any body achieve a state of financial freedom here.  We are god, experiencing itself subjectively.

I need to start breaking down peoples boundaries in order to initiate faster evolution to our god state.


I've just started this though.  I have to create a company helping people and so I will put this together now.  If you are interested in a nice apartment for 260 euros per month I will find it for you!

The area is Torrevieja and surrounding.

I never understood why so many British people love the Queen the royal family. They are basically supporting their extravagant lifestyles with billions of pounds of their tax dollars! They're the biggest welfare queens of all--literally! If I were British I would be pissed off and would seriously contemplating putting together a pitchfork mob.

believe you me we don't like those sponging greek/german/transilvanian cunts anymore than you do. But the BBC likes to pretend it speaks with the "voice of the nation" and pretend we all love them.

The culture here is that people are so conditioned into snobbery that they don't even realise the huge parasite sat there feeding off them then going around the world like the little dick of europe pissing on everyone, spying on their own citizens, infringibng basic human rights and most people there are unhappy but so ignorant they don't know why.

I feel ashamed to be British.  What a joke.

UK you fucked up, you side with you parasitic captors and are snobs,
firstly wake up then

See, I was under the impression that the Royal family used money from interest gained off it's already existing wealth.

I looked it up after reading this, turns out they get tens of millions a year to spend as they see fit for the most part.

Seems a tad archaic to give them money for the hell of it all. They should just make a reality show and put an end to taxpayer funded allowance. :lol:

If only the British people had the means to stand up against a tyrannical government with more than knives and pitch forks, they could pose a real threat to the government's slowly increasing overreach.

The majority of the world is fucked, not just the UK. When the Psychoactive bill was passed in the UK, people just accepted it and never gave it a second thought because it was the most easiest, simplest thing to do in their boring, repetitive lifes. It made realise even more how messed up the country was (along with all the political scum getting exposed, yet nobody does anything again)
Now, the political state in the USA and how it got so far makes me :lol:

There's nothing we can really do, the majority of the population is comfortable being comfortable. Just try to live and be happy  :highfive:


--------------------
Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.

If I were British, I'd just be happy to have some tea and biscuits and crumpets and scones and a top hat.
