What the fuck are you talking about? This thread took a truly bizarre turn.

Yes, I'm aware what racism is and perhaps it was a bit of a strong word, so... xenophobic? You flipped pretty quickly to just trashing Britain for what still seems a couple of spurious, ill-thought-out reasons. Britain killed a million in the potato famine? Over 150 years ago? Not minimising it or anything (I'm descended from Irish that fled the famine, in fact) but isn't that an odd thing to hold against the UK in 2011? But fair enough; the USA is also obviously currently a shithole because of segregation.

You fucking moron.

haha. I think you'll find America isn't as bad as that.

I went to San Franciso a few years ago and it was perfect. I have never been so impressed by a city, state or country for that matter.

Yeah Britian also tried to wipe out Aboriginal people of Australia, the people who had been living here for 50,000 years. Time therefore is irrelevent

believe it or not, alot of Australians are descended from Irish. We have people from all over the world. But you used us in the WWI. Now what are Australian turks supposed on ANZAC day?.

a large majority of people do not think highly of Britian, in Europe, in Asia, Americas, Africa, The Middle East, or In Australia. Why do you think people is Australia want to become a republic then?

Its the same nonsense. you are just so fucking rude and arrogant.

Are you actually Irish or some Australian who still thinks they are Irish? I descended from the Irish but was born and grew up in England, but by your logic I must still be Irish. In my genetic history I also came from West Africa so I must be African too.

What's your passport say on it?

So to sum up:

Trevor Wilkinson ran away from the UK because of the way his country treated the Irish and Aboriginal people of Australia several generations before he was born. And we're all bastards because not everyone who wanted an Olympics ticket got one.

And now Australia is a land of flowers and fluffy bunnies (oh, wait, that's not a good thing and also "our" fault, sorry).

No seriously, America is shit, it really is poopy numbers. It's not North Korea or anything like that, but if people are gonna be talking shit about a developed nation, it's a waste of time to be talking about the U.K., I mean for real? The U.K.!? That's your fucking evil empire!?

Britian also reshaped Palestine. Essentially laying the foundations of terrorism.

WWII responsible for the Canicattì massacre, Dachau Massacre, Biscari Massacre, Operation Teardrop,

Dude, every country that's anybody has done an massacre at some point or another. What matters is that you eventually grow up and are like "shit, I am done with this massacre/genocide shit." That means you(country) are finally growing up into a responsible adult.

Yes, but what's not weird is trying to use an internet troll as a way to trick someone into hiring me in the UK.

I did my law degree as a post graduate, which isn't that common here. Quite a few people on my course were lawyers from other countries converting to English law, including one Scot, which must have been super annoying for him since the two systems are so close.

Oh dear god another fucking idiot. Let me state this quite clearly for the entire world. What some people did before I was born has nothing whatsoever to do with me. I am not 'Britain'. I don't seem to remember Australia having the best track record with it's indigenous peoples either - even after they stopped being 'British'. Since many Australians are descended from British people you are therefore entirely responsible for all British misdemeanors and acts of aggression before the settling of Australia.

Now fuck off.
