The evil of nationalism

Enos 2022-04-19 09:02:01

This is some deep shit. Prejudice and evil are rampant at the bottom, looking for a lonely young man who is approved to take refuge with the underworld boss who has been brainwashed by British nationalism for warmth, the boss who looks like a father and covers everyone, and his heart is cold and evil, with nationalism Namely strangling immigrant brown children with both hands, finally awakened Sean, letting the George Cross flag _ the nationalist flag drift into the sea. Any groupism is inherently inhumane, let us remember.
Narrated from the perspective of a story, especially from the perspective of a child, it can best demonstrate the essence of nationalism. Smashing and robbing immigrant stores, robbing Arab children of balls, making the lonely teenager Sean excited, and taking refuge in the tough boss, he felt that he had found an organization. But the deep kindness in his heart made him quit decisively after his Pakistani buddies who were like brothers were killed in the madness of the boss. Facing the nationalist George Cross flag that disappeared in the sea, Sean showed a firm look , from now on can only rely on themselves. The little gang leader in the film understands people and refuses to be brainwashed by nationalism.

    Combo: Lovely, lovely, love you for that, that's fucking great. A proud man, learn from him; that's a proud man. That's what we need, man. That's what this nation has been built on, proud men. Proud fucking warriors! Two thousand years this little tiny fucking island has been raped and pillaged, by people who have come here and wanted a piece of it - two fucking world wars! Men have laid down their lives for this. For this... and for what? So people can stick their fucking flag in the ground and say, "Yeah! This is England. And this is England, and this is England."
