    This is literally about the nationality of a person (being British). Maybe racism isn’t the best word, but it’s certainly discrimination.

      British people have such the thinnest of skin. Americans have been the center of European jokes for so long and most of us just nod and agree. But British? Like bro, you guys stopped Scottish independence and when they pass positive trans bills y’all get into a hissy fit and fucking step in and stop it. Maybe stop being such fucking dicks first about and maybe the jokes will stop.

        They literally voted not to themselves.

        yeah the British are famous for not going along with banter and you should definitely take this one dude on lemmy as a representative example of the entire country.

        I… am not British? Why would you think I am??? lmao

        I don’t even have anything against the joke; it’s (kind of) funny and just a nod about the cultural hate of Scottish people against British people due to their nation’s history. I was just telling that if you take it seriously (which it’s not supposed to), it is discrimination. (I mean not the joke itself but what happens to the character in the joke.)
