@FailurePersonified pink floyd and the prodigy, but that's not even a national thing for them, show me a brit who'd be proud of these bands being his countrymen

@FailurePersonified tbh i think bongs did contribute pretty well to electronic music, but again, that could've happened in another country, not necessarily england

Would have to trace their heritage to see if they were truly British and not just tainted by their disease

I do love the British OG punk scene as well as even some of the more contemporary electronic musicians today.
Though though all mostly run counter to their culture

@FailurePersonified maybe that's the reason those are good, they go against the rain soaked greedy depressed bureaucrats of england's government

@lina oh absolutely.
Look at all the faggots here crying about “muh rights” as they live in America of all places. They don’t know what it’s like to have the bobbies round them up for a naughty verse in a song the rebels like.
If you want a good counterculture, you gotta have a busted culture

@FailurePersonified yeah fr they are literally sitting around posting shit that's barely on the edge of "IM GONNA FUCKING DISEMBOWEL THE PRESIDENT" and they get nothing happening to them for it, but elsewhere in the world you talk shit about the powers that be and you get v&, albeit england is hilariously far more restrictive than russia whom they've been trying to paint as a dictatorial hellhole for almost a century now

@FailurePersonified actually the current shitlibs are actually saying exactly that and they're crying about their rights, it's fucking crazy man, they're literally getting off free with publicly calling and wanting to kill the new president and they're saying they have no rights? they have too many rights i say

@FailurePersonified russia's much better in this department because of greater humanity, the cops and other authority figures are more human, they're more prone to just not caring about minor shit or to being too soft, sometimes it's bad like when there were faggots literally collecting funds for ukrainian troops ON RUSSIAN SOCIAL MEDIA and they got a slap on the wrist for it instead of being made an example for others to be afraid of
there's also just a greater deal of autonomy in things, even in the soviet times a lot of places weren't actually carrying out what's described to be as stalin's bloody repressions simply cuz they didn't feel like it, only places like latvia that have a national skill of superior asskissing did shit like that

Ooh that’s a good point, also if you want good examples of counterculture look no further than Russia lol.
They are two ends of the same shitstick, but at least Russia isn’t British :02_laugh2:
I can’t wrap my head around the narrative that some Americans have when that one lesbian, a day after the election, is implying that revolution is the only way to solve the Trump problem.
Why isn’t she in chains? Bc we free bitch

@lina “too many”? I think “just enough” but I see your point.
They are abusing the gifts they were given

I’m not sure the cause of that persay, however I do think that at least during the Soviet era they were a bit more disorganized, and as you say more “human” or just more apathetic to their marching orders.
The British don’t have much loyalty to their own people, it’s hard to say for the Russians as I wasn’t around back then to say
