Honestly we should unite and perform a coordinated attack on fox news, the same way that anonymous took over russian news stations, russian sites, and even hacked russian GPS.

This isn't just a case of freedom of speech, this is mobilising, terrorising and seditious speaking. The US government themselves know best just how powerful this propaganda is, as they've used it themselves against many governments. They're doing the exact same thing at fox news.

Look into the Jakarta method, a book written about how the US government destabilised and dissected government's that they viewed as hostile and communist.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jakarta_Method

We have known for a long time that fox news creates soviet style propaganda, but now, with Russia being hostile and China semi-hostile, surely they're trying to destabilise at best, start a civil war at worst. Why doesn't the USA do anything to stop this clear and obvious cooperation with the enemy?

Freedom of speech is not freedom to incide sedition. It doesn't protect people from convincing traitor's to pick up their weapons. Fox news should never have won that lawsuit where they claimed "no rational person would believe it" because that's irrelevant. A good portion of Americans (30%+) are irrational. So why discount them? It's like saying "only a criminal would shoot someone if we paid them to do it, therefore when we pay them to do it, it's not our fault". Well yeah, only a criminal would do it, but you still paid them!

It is funny.

Are you American?

It's a famous image because it encapsulates UK binge drinking culture so well.

The man on the floor with the implication that he fell but saved his beer. The man getting arrested. The woman bitching at police to stop. The people in the background not giving a shit because it's an average Saturday night.

I think the photo even won awards haha

Don't you know the point of this sub?

They already blew up my car! What else can they do?

Ehhh as a Scot I disagree. Have you travelled Europe? I have. And I'd love to do it again. The UK is quite nice to live in, but it has many flaws and definitely isn't the best. Suck it Brit.

Excluding the UK, they refuse to speak other languages and will tell you proudly that they can't speak another language. They won't even attempt to say they speak it well.

Yeah, people are aware, we have all heard of it. That's what makes this joke funny, it's a misdirection.

I don't think that our prime minister, Ricky Sushi, is a TERF, because that would require him to be a feminist.

But honestly he's from the right wing party, what do you expect? If I judged all Americans based off what the GOP does or says, America would be 100x worse.

So as a Scot, fuck your nonsense

Agreed, it's incredible and perfectly encapsulates UK night-out culture

This is genius.

Especially because italics indicates a change in how the words are spoken

And mama mia Italians are the gods of doing that.
