I think Imgur blocked the UK entirely themselves rather than comply with the online spying act

Exactly this. Weight classes exist for a reason. Inertia is a thing, and smaller people have less of it to throw around. A tiny person will get their shit rocked by a big person, even if the big person is only half-assing their punches. A concussion is when the brain bounces off the inside of the skull, and someone in a higher weight class is much more likely to cause that. Look at how her head snaps back when she gets hit. Now imagine if it was someone her own size, and imagine how much less impact it would have.

Sometimes I wonder whether what we're seeing is actually a regression, or whether that's just what's easier to believe. As you highlight, this has been bubbling under the surface for a while, so one could argue that it never really went away.

I often think about how the UK likes to pretend it doesn't have a problem with antisemitism. Before WW2, there were plenty of powerful people in Britain who were thinking that Hitler was a sensible chap to be finally addressing "the Jewish problem".

Sure, some of these people were probably horrified when they learned of the mass extermination programme under Nazi Germany, but they were plenty fine with seizing the property of Jewish people and putting them into ghettos. But nooooo, of course we don't have a systemic problem with antisemitism — we beat the Nazis! We're the heroes, don't you know?
