@@GLASSMOSCOWANDBEIJING does Trump and NATO represent everything and everyone in the west? lol. I thought the west is a democracy and there is 2 sides of west not just pro NATO and pro Trump? The only reason why Kurdish people support the west is because they don't have any choice, an enemy of my enemy is my friend kinda situation, and the only reason why NATO and the west support the Kurdish movement is because their homeland is FULL OF OILS, look at the map. When the Kurds get what they want which is their own government, they will automatically switch to anti west again and took back all their oils. They definitely won't tolerate this lgbtqaatc agendas nonsense cuz majority of them are stount Sunnis Muslim. BTW Trump is kinda anti NATO tbh so that poster doesn't make any sense.

I’m sick of this extremely niche Ivy League East cost narrative being pushed down my throat. My ancestors arrived in some windswept shithole in the northern Great Plains from Germany likely without seeing a single black person, and then spent their lives farming out in the middle of nowhere. Our interactions with African Americans really only started in the 1980’s when we started marrying them, unless you count the cousins who died of dysentery trying to free their asses from those psycho scots Irish fuckers down south.
As an American I can safely say we’re sick of it too. I’d also somewhat like to point out that it’s not an American push, it’s a push by corrupt officials. America is just so happening to have the bulk of the issue rn since so little people here actually know what their talking about.
Historically speaking, it was and probably still is one the richest and most stable countries in Africa. It could rival the Greek and Roman Empires in fame. Only other African empire I could think that most people have heard of would be Zulu but even then, they're probably no where as widely known as the Ancient Egyptians.
Both 🇺🇲 and 🇬🇧 have alot to be sorry for, they promote this trash in they're own countries and terrorize and oppress they're own people with it then they try to export it to the rest of the world through military force, there's a reason the Taliban threw all the yankee educational material into the trash and why 🇷🇺 has banned 🏳️⚧️ surgery
There’s a similar sort of display near my town hall… except it actually has pictures of the town from the 1800s onwards and is a general celebration of its actual history. I always thought it was kinda cringe, but seeing the alternatives, it seems refreshingly and charmingly normal in comparison, to say nothing of our stickerless traffic lights and grafittiless buildings - unless you count Ulster murals lol.

@@Britannica1 Fair enough. I think its just dissapointing seeing such well researched videos like the russian space race and the freedom of speech ones having like 600 views.

@@Britannica1 It is indeed very… entertaining. My favourite argument must‘ve been: „Britain also commited warcrimes in her history, so you can‘t criticise us.“
I got the recommendation for the serbian war music video, since im from Balkans, i guess. After i saw serbs comments my balkan blood boiled and i had to join the comment war 😂. After that i checked the channel further. What i find amazing is that you have really good channel with so few views. But your serbian war music video exploaded haha. You should farm Balkan hate for content to grow your channel for sure haha. Maybe make a comparison video on how left and right wing politics work in western and easter europe. SJW, religion minorities, communism and similar subjects are handled much rougher in eastern europe than in the west. I find the western need for self hate interesting, like many people from eastern europe do.
I love how they were like we'll make a mural to celebrate black British people from history... Ok we've got one... and err... err Bob Marley? OK fuck it, just put anyone brown on there... and if you run out of those people just change historical people to be black.
I had breakfast in a Cafe in Reading years ago with a hangover. A homeless guy stuck me with a fork while I was trying to order some food, I was concerned it was a syringe for a moment, but no, it was his fork. Then I accidentally parked in the long stay car park at the train station, and it then demanded I pay £15 for me to get my car out, even though I had only parked there like 1 hour. Nice,
That mural looks like something an extremely amateur artist would make... or someone making a caricature of random black historical figures to potentially mock them. It has literally the exact opposite effect of what the people that advocated for it likely wanted lol.
I do disagree with the statement that conservative do not create identity collectives. Within the US, being evangelical is often linked to a conservative political leaning, and can be pushed in religion ('can' because while some churches do, many others most certainly do not push politics). I would say that the left simply has more of a stage/voice for identity collectives that they believe belong to them at this time.
I suspect it's moreso that progressives believe in collectivist theory, while conservatives in America are fundamentally individualist, so when conservatives collectivise, it's a different context
The left completely lacks any pretext about dignity, honor, or principles, their goal is to win, and don't care if they lack logic and honesty, they want to put you on the back foot so you're always ceding ground instead of actually gaining anything. "Libs owned with facts and logic" literally doesn't matter when you're only reacting to what they say and do, instead of doing and saying things that actually progress your own goals.

I only recently moved to England for University from North Wales. Im now in Manchester and I'll just say that my current experience of England is Blade Runner LA. I miss Wales, it is actually like still being in Britain
You moved from a mostly rural place to a large city; you shouldn't be surprised that there are some differences. Manchester is a small and unpolluted city by world standards. If you think England is Bladerunner-esque, you should probably stick clear of LA and Beijing. 😅
@@stickemuppunkitsthefunlovi4733 I agree, some bits of Manchester are a dump. Others are looking pretty good. Britain in general is looking rough now compared to the rest of Europe - the problem is some people seem to think that looking rough is 'not English', when they've not experienced much of the world and have only lived through a very short period in a few towns/villages when Britain was doing well. It's jarring when people from places like North Wales complain about things not looking British - as if they have no idea how hard and unfair life in a Welsh mining town was up until very recently. Looking rough is our default state, not the norm - and a good first step out of it is to stop blaming 'the Left' or 'the Right' or 'the immigrants', or indeed anybody but yourself.
Why don’t they realise what they do is oppressive closing business’s forcing people to accept something they don’t agree with 🤯 that is what they think they are fighting against 😂

No! I can't believe England lost its only Chick-Fil-A. What a terrible outcome. In all honesty, I apprexiate you documenting the decline of a once great English town as is slowly dies from one thousand cuts of cringe intersectionality, immigration, and libralism. I would love to see a compotent Conversative English government tske back their country. I love England, I spent many years there. I want the culture to live on and thrive.
I visit Reading often and whilst it's not my favorite place in the world I'd hardly say it's dying. Also I'd be interested to know what you actually mean by, "take back their country".
@JohnnyMaverik I don't mean dying in the classical sense of becoming less and less active, losing population, or losing business but becoming more and more like the capital. As in the original culture of the English is slowly getting replaced within the town. The town is dying to multiculturalism. "Take back their country" means pretty much exactly what it sounds like. England is for the native population of England and not the hundreds of thousands of migrants coming yearly and Bing housed in villages and towns where they have no right to be. It will eventually destroy the culture, safety, and English way of life. Now, to an outsider, the Tory conservatives seem to be ineffective and not really conservative as they did nothing to stop the mass immigration of people into England. A genuine conservative government would be turning all the boats around and deporting people back to their home countries instead of housing them in hotels, giving them money, and ignoring their crimes.
I have no idea how this isn’t a more popular channel. Keep up the good work! Also can’t believe they wanted to kick out Chick-fil-A for donating to Salvation Army (for context it’s a large US charity group organized around a church.)
We have the Salvation Army in UK too - there's literally 2 salvation army buildings within 20 minutes walk of where Chick-fil-A was. It was very frustrating. Won't lie, though, the Wingstop which replaced it is pretty good too.
What in the world are those crosswalks? Britain actually was leading in some regards with accessability for crosswalks, you have markings for blind people and those with poor eyesights/guiding dogs. How in the world am I supposed to recognize its a crosswalk as a foreigner?
This is modern Britain we're talking about: the country has been redesigned from the top down to be inaccessible for the disadvantaged, foreigners, and horses.

How did I not recognize Callum's voice from Lotus Lads? As I listened, I thought, "oh he seems intelligent and based." Somehow it didn't translate to remembering his voice. If I had known that you made good content on your own I would have checked it sooner. Glad that I found it. Don't ask which video in my feed first brought me to this channel.
There is a Spanish Civil War memorial in Glasgow also, my friend from Spain was astonished to find a memorial to the U.K citizens who gave thier lives for republican Spain. As you are unlikely to find any in Spain itself.
Especially to foreign volunteers given how many atrocities they committed and their treatment of (especially female) civilians. The feelings were such that they were often just shot on capture during the civil war.
I knew I have seen you somewhere before!! I also live in Reading. Such a coincidence I found your Afghanistan video pop up randomly, I watched it, learnt loads about the Taliban and now realise that I'm pretty sure I've seen you about in Reading!
Your understanding of the Spanish Civil War is very facile and the reason why the UK didn't pick a side had nothing to do with both sides being "bad". Now I'm being hard on you, but besides WWI there is no conflict as important as the Spanish Civil War for 20th century Europe and being flippant and ignorant about it isn't really very droll.
lived just outside Reading all my life and it's an absolute shite hole!! The hospital RBH is in THE most inconvenient place impossible to get to in bad traffic which is any other time than 3 in the morning, there's always bad traffic on all of the river bridges and you are safer walking around the streets in Afghanistan than you are in the Reading Town centre!
As a bisexual male, I feel ashamed. I believe in equality of sex, race or orientation, but this forced ideology as in the case of chick-filet is ridiculous.
You're grossly misrepresenting the Spanish Civil War though. The Communists weren't a monolith of "Stalinists", there were Anarchists and more moderate sodalists, and the Fascists were only slightly less fractured too. Catholic Nationlists, Fascists, weird National Syndclists etc..
And you didn't mention the Communists turning on the anarchists and the International Brigade. Maybe the memorial is ironic, in memory of all the foreign volunteers killed by the communists.
This felt like a labour of love for you Callum. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the changes made to wherever you grew up, old stomping grounds - that sort of thing. Also, try to memorise your script before recording :D

2:44 Oh that's so nice, thank you. That's definitly what I need becayse yesterday I saw an invitation to " antifashistic Street party" and below that they claimed that they are planing to stop the Polish independence march. Which I meen good luck I gues.
They boycotted chick fil a because they donated to the salvation army, a charity that does outreach to the poor community and helps get children toys for christmas, as well as providing them a rec center they can walk to. Yeah, if you’re boycotting them for that, you might be evil.
As a Belgian Anglophile, I must say, I disagree that the importing of non-British people, automatically means non-British opinions, mannerisms, actions, and so on. I know you said "English", but I feel this goes for the entirety of Britain, really. Or any country when it comes to migration, for that matter. There are degrees of difference between peoples, we all instinctively know and realise this.
8:48 That’s not Cleopatra. That is Queen Nefertiti with a modified nose to make her look more African than Levantine. They should’ve drawn the previous queen and the mother of Nefertiti’s husband, she looks considerably more sub-Saharan.
You mean queen Tiyi ? That's just her wooden bust darkening over time. Her drawings and her mummy show a completely none black woman. Middle Eastern just like the rest of the ancient Egyptians.
Wow that city is already done for. I thought my city was bad. What happened to Britain. The people you used to conquer are now conquering you . You completely flipped from one extreme to the other. I'd rather be the ruler than ruled to be honest.

Malcom X changed his views after going to Mecca and seeing the pilgrimage contain all colors of people
True.
That blk mural is cringe. They could have at least hired a competent artist to paint it.
Good job Callum.
Thanks
I have no idea how this isn’t a more popular channel. Keep up the good work! Also can’t believe they wanted to kick out Chick-fil-A for donating to Salvation Army (for context it’s a large US charity group organized around a church.)
We have the Salvation Army in UK too - there's literally 2 salvation army buildings within 20 minutes walk of where Chick-fil-A was. It was very frustrating.
Won't lie, though, the Wingstop which replaced it is pretty good too.
Salvation Army is a British institution.
What in the world are those crosswalks?
Britain actually was leading in some regards with accessability for crosswalks, you have markings for blind people and those with poor eyesights/guiding dogs.
How in the world am I supposed to recognize its a crosswalk as a foreigner?
This is modern Britain we're talking about: the country has been redesigned from the top down to be inaccessible for the disadvantaged, foreigners, and horses.
I never understood the guilt behind slavery. I'm half German and half Korean, but I don't walk around apologizing for the holocaust to every Jew I meet.
So do you prefer kimchi or sauerkraut? This is important.
Reading being a university town probably has something to do with it
A microcosm of the idiocracy we live in.
Strange, Chick-Fil-A is the only fast food that doesnt make me want to kill myself after eating it.
Because they use peanut oil instead of soybean, "vegetable", or "CanOLA" oil.
Disturbing and yet hilarious. Thanks.
I can't believe I'm just now finding this channel. This channel is a rare British W. Few such instances!
Lol. I'd rather see gang graffiti, then socialist graffiti.
Same thing really
2:51 as a pole myself I don’t think this is the fault of the ‘right’
This symbol was used for as the polish fighting symbol during the occupation of Poland during the times of ww2 and Nazi germany
It shows that Poland is fighting back
How did I not recognize Callum's voice from Lotus Lads? As I listened, I thought, "oh he seems intelligent and based." Somehow it didn't translate to remembering his voice.
If I had known that you made good content on your own I would have checked it sooner. Glad that I found it. Don't ask which video in my feed first brought me to this channel.
I watched his video on Serbian war music and i only noticed it was callum at the end
My GOD the black mural.... Uggggh
I believe that’s Nefertiti, not Cleopatra
You’re correct, but the point still remains. We have sculptures/busts of Nefertiti that have survived the ages, and she also wasn’t “black”.
There is a Spanish Civil War memorial in Glasgow also, my friend from Spain was astonished to find a memorial to the U.K citizens who gave thier lives for republican Spain. As you are unlikely to find any in Spain itself.
Especially to foreign volunteers given how many atrocities they committed and their treatment of (especially female) civilians. The feelings were such that they were often just shot on capture during the civil war.
1:20
Monarchy is based 👑
The mural was insane! What an embarrassment
So sorry that I as an American have indirectly caused this madness throughout the western world.
Bro as an American you don't have to apologise for everything you never did, even if you culturally have an urge to do so
I knew I have seen you somewhere before!! I also live in Reading. Such a coincidence I found your Afghanistan video pop up randomly, I watched it, learnt loads about the Taliban and now realise that I'm pretty sure I've seen you about in Reading!
Still pop there a bit meeting old friends for dinner.
Your understanding of the Spanish Civil War is very facile and the reason why the UK didn't pick a side had nothing to do with both sides being "bad". Now I'm being hard on you, but besides WWI there is no conflict as important as the Spanish Civil War for 20th century Europe and being flippant and ignorant about it isn't really very droll.
The Republicans in Spain by the end of the war were Soviet puppets. There was no good side to choose.
It was revealed that the British Navy around Gibraltar helpt the Spanish nationalist to cross the strait from Africa to the peninsula
I thought he was succinct.
I didnt realize that reading was that bad. Its just north from me and it chills me that something so woke is so close to home
lived just outside Reading all my life and it's an absolute shite hole!! The hospital RBH is in THE most inconvenient place impossible to get to in bad traffic which is any other time than 3 in the morning, there's always bad traffic on all of the river bridges and you are safer walking around the streets in Afghanistan than you are in the Reading Town centre!
Woke degenerate thought is a cancer that spreads throughout a country and destroys it unless it is squashed.
and what exactly is so woke about it?
@@sampletexthereDid you even watch the video? Keep your head in the sand, I guess.
8:47 Cleopatra was Greek with some Persian and Sogdian Iranian ancestry or similar but here is obviously depicted Nefertiti and not Cleopatra.
Not obvious as Nefertiti wasn't Nubian either
11:40 "I'M SORRY I'M WHITE! I'M SORRY I'M MALE!"
3:32 "We Happy Few" IRL
7:38 WRONG franco's team were the good guys
8:48 That's a botched depiction of Nefertiti. Not Cleopatra. African yes, Egyptian yes, black as all the rest in the depiction of the mural, not.
As a bisexual male, I feel ashamed. I believe in equality of sex, race or orientation, but this forced ideology as in the case of chick-filet is ridiculous.
>as a bisexual male
Ew
@@Michael_Sangworth Right back at you, mate.
@@gravedigger1454 Ok aids boy
In many ways, this is even more entertaining than Lotus Eaters (even if it is a bit depressing). New sub here; Keep up the good work
One thing to note is Equiano never lived in or visited Reading. He mainly lived in the Province of Georgia, and later, London.
Cards and meat Callum. Bread, meat & alcohol founded empires!
You're grossly misrepresenting the Spanish Civil War though. The Communists weren't a monolith of "Stalinists", there were Anarchists and more moderate sodalists, and the Fascists were only slightly less fractured too. Catholic Nationlists, Fascists, weird National Syndclists etc..
And you didn't mention the Communists turning on the anarchists and the International Brigade.
Maybe the memorial is ironic, in memory of all the foreign volunteers killed by the communists.
This felt like a labour of love for you Callum. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the changes made to wherever you grew up, old stomping grounds - that sort of thing. Also, try to memorise your script before recording :D
If the International Financial System still exist, we can't destroy progressivism. *NATIONALIZE CENTRAL BANK NOW!*
Its a shame America's main export is terrible culture.
Josh wearing human clothes instead of a suit is weird tbh
Extremely underrated video. Shame it didn't perform as well as the slav warcrime song video
Why did it get removed? :(
Same thing is happening in Australia.
Please keep up the awesome work, I just found this channel and love every video. Please keep grinding and you’ll be rewarded. Your content is informative and interesting and I can’t wait for the next video!
Thank you so much!
A fellow Kiwifarms enjoyer I see
You reinforce my view that most politics history and the present is basically depressing. I like you’re videos but they tend to point out negatives . That is positive and helpful for awareness and especially if one is planning travel. I’m gay but don’t like the way lgbt shove there agenda down people’s throats. I identify as gay not lgbt. I glad I found and subscribed to your Channel! Dave in Tampa Florida …not a Trump or DeSantis fan!!
. Historic gay landmarks should be recognized though.
02:32 No.
“is it the worst place on earth?, no, is it the most extremist place in the uk? no”

Unexpected josh cameo wtf
Respect from New Zealand. Thanks for shining a light on this ridiculousness. This kind of thing has started to pop up all around Auckland in the last couple of years. Not my culture.
Are there any based places left in New Zealand?
I don't feel as bad about Liverpool now after watching this !
I would say Liverpool is not even half as bad as this
My city used to have a mural about the English civil war. It was painted over when the building it was on was renovated to put a nail salon in it, which shut down within 6 months.
Just found your channel, I've been truly enjoying your work on the lotus eaters for a while now. Great content here! You have earned an instant subscriber from "across the pond". Keep it up good buddy!!!
WOOAHHH I did not expect you, the man who travelled to Afghanistan as a tourist, to be this rationally grounded, your frustrated sanity is a refreshing surprise to come across on this nightmare platform, well done for speaking your mind dude
Lotus Eaters Team, Alex Jones, Mike Yon, Bad Man Tommy, Douglas Murray, Sir Nigel Farage , Leo Kearse, Count Dakula - WE SALUTE YOU ALL!!!
As a America this feels worse than seeing it in my own country. Such a proud ild nation that should be celebrated for its many aichvments thay bettered the world. Reduced to what it is now. May God have mercy on a once proud country
Let's return to byzantine monarchy, the longest lasting stable empire in the history of the world.

Is this an editing mistake or are there two memorials to the Spanish Civil War?
Same memorial
Based guide dogs and horses?
2:44 Oh that's so nice, thank you. That's definitly what I need becayse yesterday I saw an invitation to " antifashistic Street party" and below that they claimed that they are planing to stop the Polish independence march. Which I meen good luck I gues.
Good fucking luck ahaha, how did it go? Did they have the Poles quaking in their boots?
They forgot 2pac... I mean, why not?
And Idi Amin. Get 'em all in. Very jolly.
They boycotted chick fil a because they donated to the salvation army, a charity that does outreach to the poor community and helps get children toys for christmas, as well as providing them a rec center they can walk to. Yeah, if you’re boycotting them for that, you might be evil.
It's not like they are going to not help the poor just because someone is gay or whatnot. Absolute madness.
I didn't expect the Kotwica in a British town.
Malcolm x left nation of islam and he said they were racists after his trip to Mecca and he became a traditionalist Muslim
As a Belgian Anglophile, I must say, I disagree that the importing of non-British people, automatically means non-British opinions, mannerisms, actions, and so on.
I know you said "English", but I feel this goes for the entirety of Britain, really. Or any country when it comes to migration, for that matter.
There are degrees of difference between peoples, we all instinctively know and realise this.
8:48 That’s not Cleopatra. That is Queen Nefertiti with a modified nose to make her look more African than Levantine. They should’ve drawn the previous queen and the mother of Nefertiti’s husband, she looks considerably more sub-Saharan.
You mean queen Tiyi ?
That's just her wooden bust darkening over time.
Her drawings and her mummy show a completely none black woman.
Middle Eastern just like the rest of the ancient Egyptians.
Did the Wendy's have the 4 for 4 deal? It is nice if you are strapped for cash.
This country is gone fucking mad what is the matter with people Jesus Christ
7:12 I think Englishness is one example of a conservative identity collective
Callum and the lads have a jolly romp about the town
My family were from Reading before we all moved up North. It's all just housing for Londoners. Hate the place.
Wow that city is already done for. I thought my city was bad. What happened to Britain. The people you used to conquer are now conquering you . You completely flipped from one extreme to the other. I'd rather be the ruler than ruled to be honest.
What a cold dystopian cesspit.
The Quintessential Example of Overly-Civilized Chaos.
Man(sigh), well after watching this the Kabul trip doesn't look so bad, at least the Taliban were willing to standup to the Islamic extremists.
If an "asian man" poops on the street, as is his culture, but it happens to be on lgdt "street art" what happens then?
Underrated channel. Have a subscription. You really need more. Absolutely love your work on Soviet space program and Serbian music.
rofl the "black history" wall is one giant cope XD
Malcom X changed his views later in his life and left “ Nation of Islam”
