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.

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.

Still, silver lining. Living in such a wet and expensive shithole means we're the birthplace of jungle and dnb, which is the best dance music ever. Don't disagree though, otherwise you'll get a stabbing. It's a local custom in city centres.

When we send the Queen on a state visit it shows a damn sight more respect for that country than if we were we to send them the above stated politician.

I think it bears repeating...if all my countrymen took their work as seriously as the Queen takes hers, she's 90 years old for fucks sake, and still going strong, this country would be a damn sight better off.

A lot of people mistakenly think that the royal family recycles their money, but in fact every year they receive hundreds of millions of pounds from the people of the country.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/cost-of-royal-family-rises-twice-as-fast-as-inflation-9563293.html

Quote:

In 2012-13 the Queen was given £31m by the taxpayer, meaning her income from the public purse will have gone up by 47 per cent by 2017-18 if the formula stays the same.

Buckingham Palace said the Royal family now costs 62p for every citizen of the United Kingdom, up from 58p last year. A spokesman also said two thirds of the increase in the Queen’s income was being spent on reducing a huge backlog of repairs to royal palaces.




http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/27/queens-income-rises-again-as-cost-of-royal-family-is-62p-per-per/

And British people defend this shit, because they say the Queen brings in a lot of tourism and therefore money is trickled back to the people that way through the economy.

The head of which parasites, the Queen, your countrymen recently voted to keep as their head of state.
And judging from your eloquent post, leaves you as what? little more than a tick on the parasite of the body politic of Canoodlia. So. hey. :flipthebird: swivel on that fucker.

Do you give money to the homeless around you each day like you choose to sponsor the Queen and British Invasion forces?


Is it good to give money to people who are arming/bombing the world for profit?

I think the problem lies here; people assume their governments have their best interest at heart.  Well heres an example of what the British govs interest for you is my friends...

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2002/apr/21/uk.medicalscience

How can you not see that we are financing them into a position of considerable dominance over us and its being abused?

And yet we are defending it and paying for it thus we indirectly sponsor and create it.

Thank you Worzel gummidge.
Hopefully the politicians can work out some accord that enables you to stay in Spain for the rest of your days. It's not like we have a shortage of morons here, judging by the brexit vote, that we'll miss one.

I'm becoming a Spanish resident.  Interesting you think like that though.  How does it feel to have an owner?  Now get back in your pen, theres a good boy.

I'm becoming a Spanish resident.  Interesting you think like that though.  How does it feel to have an owner?  Now get back in your pen, theres a good boy.




More Worzel gummidge bullshite. If you really think that you will become more free from politicians because you've moved to Spain, you are deluded. Maybe you are proof of the chemical attack apon the country you alluded to in your link.

What it really comes down to is we have a culture of blame in England and everyone wants to blame someone else instead of change the environment and conditioning that is TEACHING people here how to behave.

People don't just go and sit on the street and take smack and stab you for no reason.  These people are created and the behaviour is learned but instead of accept this we BLAME them and then the problems perpetuate and grow.

We fail to acknowledge that behaviour is learnt and a result of ones environment and the medias we consume andf therefore the problem can continue and grow.

Right now in England they have the public in a cage, poke them with a stick, force them to work more than they want, force them to take elitist shit to do anything like get a place to take a shit in in peace and they wonder why homeless violent people are produced by this system. 

:derp:

Peace out,
Your buddy wurzel

I think it bears repeating...if all my countrymen took their work as seriously as the Queen takes hers, she's 90 years old for fucks sake, and still going strong, this country would be a damn sight better off.
Correct me when you're still working at 90 ya...



LOL.




Theyre parasites.




The head of which parasites, the Queen, your countrymen recently voted to keep as their head of state.
And judging from your eloquent post, leaves you as what? little more than a tick on the parasite of the body politic of Canoodlia. So. hey. :flipthebird: swivel on that fucker.




We can vote to keep the queen?
She's just the head of another dole scum family. Stick her in a council house and cut her benefits to the same level as any other dole scum family.

A family with a lot of smoke around them, not to mention one of them ought to be the prime suspect in a murder case. Seriously, if it was any other ex husband saying what he did he'd be facing some very difficult questions from the police.

Also this

Can you guess what it is yet?

Oh, and this chap "me and the royal family go back a million years".

who was introduced to the royal family via this chap. Another dole scum chap who likes wearing fancy dress.

No one doubts she's "'ard working" but that's no virtue considering the company she keeps and the illegal wars she's presided over.

Down with all royal houses, especially the Orange fucks.
Marrying the daughter of a murderer seems sketchy for a king, but it is traditional for the Oranges to marry shady characters, you see.

Bhernard, you fuck, you borrowed ten guilders from my grandpa and never payd him back, you cheap bastard!

Did we not just recently vote to leavs the EU? yet you believe we can't get rid of the Monachy if that was what we wanted. Sadly, for the republican dipshits over here, there is not yet such a groundswell of moronic cunts to force the issue.

If you can't be arsed to post a relevant arguement, don't expect me to read your fucking links.

Well that's nice. Anyway, be honest, You're not going to read any of that stuff because you like the way things are, why would you bother reading something that'd challenge that? Just keep on thinking happy thoughts and ignore all the links to known child raping murders that ties into the crown. 

The idea that a monarchy can be "voted out" is absurd. They have their cushty little arrangement, leech off of the public and live in their palaces whilst 99.99% living in the British Isles struggle and must earn to keep a roof over their heads and food in their bellies. No monarchy has ever stepped down and stopped taking the dole ever, the only way they are stopped is with their head on spikes.

Now, I'd like to live in a world where violence like that is not necessary. But it's all a mafia, just this one is given to wearing crowns.

So. Could you tell us which lying piece of shit scumbag politician you would like to see replace the Queen as our representative abroad, and why, exactly, do you despise the countries that you would wish to inflick that mother fucking son of a of bitch on so much as to send them there?

And maybe do so without misquoting me.

Yeah. We have all that shit too Patrick but they don't have the same gravitas as a member of the royal family. It shows a greater respect of our country to send a member ot the royal family, rather than some here today gone tomorrow lying scumbag piece of shit politician that some retarded UK republicunts would like to inflict on our friends overseas.

How many people ever turn out to welcome a visiting ambassador, secretary or politician?
Admittedly, a bunch of retards did turn out to wave when we were visited by Obama and the pope in recent years. But then, morons will be morons. :shrug:

People only respect the royal family because it's tradition and they have been respected (often forcefully through strict authority and violent measures) for centuries. So now people think it is natural to bestow the queen and other royal members with the utmost respect, such as kissing their hands or kneeling and bowing upon greeting or something. People just do it because it's a bullshit tradition that's been ingrained into them, and most people are too basic to question authority or defy tradition in society.

Seriously though, what has the monarchy ever REALLY done for you people? The people have given them billions and maybe even trillions of dollars over the years. In return for the price of that magnitude, what have they given back to their people?

In return, all you people get are a few dozen visits to some countries, maybe they host a couple balls or fundraising events to sell pristine art for "charity" (which is another code word for elite social mixer), they procreate and pop out a couple heirs to continue their legacy for the royal throne.

What is so respectable about that? Really if you think about it you are funding the world's most elite socialites.

Literally anybody who isn't a ratchet skank who can speak proper English can play the part of the royal family if they were in their position and receiving that kind of taxpayer money. Does being royalty require any type of training or knowledge or specialized skills? No, it doesn't. You simply have to play the part of a demure, polite, cordial person with good manners. Literally anybody who isn't a hoodrat could do it.

Nah man to be honest most of the world is unhappy and doesn't know why. And pretty much all of the underclass is working more than they want and facing economy instability while rich do-nothings stand on their backs. And, likewise, people will defend the way things are down to the bone just because they don't have the foresight to imagine anything different. It's sad.

No, Maybe they don't. I'd guess that the overwhelming majority in the UK wouldn't want their job either.
I shore as shit wouldn't want the lifelong scrutiny that they have to put up with.
Oddly enough they've had a damn sight less choices in life, simply through an accident of birth, than either of us have. I wouldn't be surprised if the monarchy didn't die out simply because none of the offspring want the job. Remember Prince Edward?

They do a job they were born to, and do so as well as they can, which, considering the spotlight they're under, they do with surprisingly few fuck-ups. 

I feel for the poor cow and sure as shit don't envy them, nor would I want their jobs.
I remember the Queen and Prince Phillip, not long out of hospital with some urinary tract infection, having to watch some flotilla go past on the Thames as some ridiculous duty they had to perform on as cold and miserable midsummer day that I can recall, as part of the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony.
A display of true British grit awaits some republicunt German/Greek comment:blah: that few republicunts, or I could muster.

Them being there, representing a colonial past, is kind of a kick in the face to the many nations they colonialised.

Do you see this?

You feel empathy for the queen because of her arduous task of waving her hand in that unique way?

It must be a tough life not having to do anything for yourself, like cooking, getting from A to B, cleaning your clothes, changing your sheets etc. and not having to worry about money.

Still, the monarchy has moved with the times. Now they wipe their own arses. Allegedly.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groom_of_the_Stool

Seriously, fuck them, and the parasitic hangars on. Lords, Dukes, other fancy title, and their female equivalent are all on the dole, even if they work. It's a stipend awarded based on what cunt spat them out into the world. All backed up with force.

Heh, just as I saw this thread, looky at what I saw on facey:

You are spot on, its a joke :ducklol:  Its like a huge weights been lifted I no longer live under the suppression of these people.  Parasites.

You don't realise how it is seeping into your daily life through the media and people around you, their words its a constant be littleing and oppression like you are the servants.

For me as an introvert I feel it would be pretty easy. Think about it. You're talking about people who have never done their grocery shopping in their entire life, they have "fetch boys" to do literally everything for them.

People to cook for them, people to dress them, probably people to wipe their asses and be at their beck and call 24 hours a day.

All in all, life is pretty easy if you have unlimited resources, and all the staff in the world helping you, along with the support of an entire nation.

My dad is one of those people that doesn't know how to cook. He's always either bought prepared food, or somebody has cooked for him his entire life.

I'll give him a set of instructions on how to prepare meals, and he literally won't be able to follow it. He is confused the whole time, and has to ask me every step of the way if he's doing it right, and of course he's doing it all wrong.

It's the oddest thing. I'm like, "How does somebody with a PhD not know how to cook for themselves? How are they not able to figure this shit out? This is something an elementary school kid should be able to do."

I seriously don't understand how somebody who is supposed to be highly educated is unable to perform the most simplest of tasks.

It's not a good choice, is it? Lying shitbag who's probably been fagged (their term, not mine) in public school, grows up to be a sycophant, and the psychopaths rise to the top because hierarchies work as a filtration system for psychopaths. Or, a family, who, on the merits of being born to the right parents, representing "the country". Whatever that means.

You ever watched yes minister/prime minister, or the new statesman? It's pretty much that, you've got business leaders who usually are in the position they are because of family wealth and power, making deals that can make or break a nation. A royal family is a figurehead for that entire aristocracy.

Killing the aristrocrats just replaces them with a bureaucracy, the likes of which france is still suffering with to this day. Leads to some great moody films and music mind you.

Monarchy, hierarchy, they are artifice, like road signals, or a screwdriver. A tool that's supposed to help people, but times change and some tools become obsolete. Whilst some people will lament the passing of the slide rule and logarithmic tables, or handwriting, most these days don't even know what they are, and in time will pass into obscurity. In time, folks will see what works for them, and know what doesn't work for them. Everyone knows parasites are not a good thing, and the relationship the monarchy (not just in the UK, but Belgium, Japan, North Korea, Arabia and the rest of the world) is nothing but.

Me personally, I'm offended by the idea that anyone is more or less important than myself, it's that sort of class system which leads to a lack of compassion and in extreme cases, treating people little better than livestock, even slaughtering them.

Just to be the devil's advocate for a minute: I couldn't imagine it's that nice being royalty. Being a duke or a lord would be fine, because I'd get to swan about in my palace and grounds, have every material need cared for, and not even have to lift a finger to have a nail cut, nose blown, or arse wiped. But, the royal family, will never be able to have a day in the paupers shoes, or put on some tatty clothes and go into a pub for a quiet pint. And that would build resentment. I could well imagine such a person sympathising, even taking to heart the works of Thomas Malthus, or that italian twat, Machiavelli, about how the little people deserve their lot in life, that they are genetically poor and that's why they spread poverty and it has nothing to do with the system they and their cohorts have conspired to enforce, generation after generation, since early Egyptian times. Now there's a society that would have appreciated a slide rule!

But, they are just as trapped as we are, their bonds aren't material, but spiritual. Wouldn't it be nicer if there was some sort of balance? So, sure, let them do ceremonies, let them have a single palace (with the others rented out on timeshare, proceeds going to the country) and an income that, whilst modest to them, would be very generous to any of us. The same sort of income a senior civil servant makes, after all, those are the ones doing all that work to come up with new laws and those all important foriegn deals.

As for inflicting the English on the rest of the world, I've always taken myself to be an ambassador, representing my interestes, when abroad. I put on the best face I can because I'd like the idea of say, the Maltese coming to my country, and saying: "We wanted to go on holiday and we met a nice Englishman so we wanted to visit his country." It's a nice idea, there's no threats nor conspiracy needed.

I know that ideas often don't survive contact with reality. Sometimes they do, and then wonderful things happen. Other countries seem to manage just fine without a family in fancy dress being the head of state, so it's a tenable idea.

The only way I can really describe UK culture is that they punch you with the hands but the mouth is saying I'm not hitting you.  Eventually people believe it and do the same to others because they don't know what to do.  Nobody there is dealing with their emotions. They are like children having temper tantrums. You need only turn on the UK TV to see what the majority culture is about.

The people there poisened my spirit, poisened my mind then used my body as a slave and the "me" ego then took poisens as a reflection result and symptom of this and my spirit and mind took the blame.  Its been hard to accept but even my own family did this to me because they knew no better.

I've had to realise I'm a pretty fucked up person as a rsult of this.  On one hand I have an "ego" self who is a very dangerous person that was manufactured by this society and the other is a person of pure compassion, love and joy that I consider the true me.  The undamaged self that is trying to heal.

Oh pur-fuckin-lease cry us a godamn fucking river why dont ya.

You were lucky enough to be born into one of the most prosperous nations on earth and you want to blame that fact on you becoming a total and utter fuck up? Boo-fucking-hoo.
Take some responsibility, and own up to the fact that you're a fuck-up.

Guess what. I'm a total fuck up too. But I thank the ever living fuck that I was born in a country that could accommodate such a fuck up as me.
I can be an unemployed drunk, yet still have a roof over my head, hot and cold running water and food on my fucking plate. And you think you have a reason to whine? Grow fucking up.

If I'm being harsh it's because I live into this same privileged world you were born into but I recognise, and I'm gratefull for that fact.


Oh, but...

yeah>


Privileged arsehols that don't realise their privileged. :nonono:
