Boris Johnson is Trump but with a vocabulary and slightly less ridiculous hair cut.

you'd think he'd be more worried about Russia hacking chunks off the side of Europe

Clownshoes Churchill rides again

Without even getting into the racist undertones of "the end of western civilisation", he's just talking absolute nonsense.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

tbf UK and France also didn't see a problem with the Serbian genocide so it's not all that surprising to see him share the same sentiment.

Can he just slide into the obscurity and irrelevance that he deserves? Same with Trump. I really wish for politics to be boring again and not about quirky individuals with bad blond haircuts.

So what if it is? Good riddance.

Guess what fucko, western civilization survived the end of apartheid in South Africa, and will survive the end of apartheid in Israel/Palestine.

If “western civilization” requires genocide to exist, then it shouldn’t exist.

(Obviously he’s just wrong, but I’m arguing down at his level.)

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

Guess what's built on centuries of genocide and ongoing imperialism and neocolonialism...

If BoJo doesn't like something, that means it's probably a good idea.

Who cares what this streak of piss thinks.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago

I'll take my fucking chances. Whenever some right wing cunt makes some statement like this my first thought is they're full of shit and the only they make stupid statements like this is because they stand to lose money

[–] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago

Fuck Israel.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 7 months ago

Well he's the fucking lord of death for NATO recently so I guess he would know about death wishes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Indeed what a hairy cunt

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (3 children)

What is with the f’ing hair?!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

He’s slowly going the idiot version of super-saiyen.

This isn’t even my final form!

I'm going with unaddressed mental illness run amok, leading to apathy regarding presentation, hygiene, etc. Also why Trump looks and smells like literal shit.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It, along with the whole "smiley buffoon" act is an affectation the embodiment of Oxbridge arrogance and callousness adopted to make him appear silly in an endearing way so that his actual words and actions would appear less villainous than they actually are.

Mr Bean movies really did a number on the generation of Brits.

He's managed half of that...

Mhm given that Israel is doing a jihad right now... Perhaps he's right or he mispoke.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Okay Israel is not doing Jihad. Israel is doing what uninformed Westerners imagine when they hear the word "Jihad". Let's not get things mixed up.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

They are certainly on a religious crusade to get rid of the Palestinians who occupy their holy land.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I mean they're doing genocide, which runs contradictory to the purpose of Jihad since you can't spread Islam (or any religion, really) to dead people. That's why I'm saying to not get things mixed up.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure he knows what the word "jihad" means.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

It's Arabic so it's bad and terroristic. -- Boris perhaps.
