Union of Egoists

Churchill was an absolute enemy of anyone who isn't a racist imperialist tool.

"I do not agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place."

---- Winston Churchill

Absolute only quote you need from him to decide he isn't anyone worth looking up to.

@theceoofanarchism ⏫ I mean the "why aren't you bombing the towns in Germany instead of the factories?"

We must be disciplined and have business before pleasure

Is pretty horrid too but omg

@theceoofanarchism Just only imagine if he were a German

@theceoofanarchism if churchill wasn't PM during WWII he probably would not be remembered fondly at all

@theceoofanarchism
Churchill’s mother was a NYC socialite named Jennifer Jerome, daughter of an attorney.

That's why they Closed London docks the day he was buried!

The dock crane drivers were asked to go in & lower their jibs as his coffin on a posh boys barge went past!
They all had a football match to go to, odd kick off was delayed that saturday so that people could bow down! The working man hated him! I was a welder then & had to go in to our other site not in the docks!

Double time refused as was triple time!

The found some managers who could do it most close to retirement and set up a photo-op at the pool by st Catherine's dock they always took thermos flasks for their tea breaks after!

@theceoofanarchism and he was a war criminal, fuck him!

So it makes more sense to think of ww2 as a financed and sketched out by an inner circle of US/UK/FR/DE industrialists to take out the Soviet Union. Ideologically those industrialists were united and agreeing with each other, the enemy were the organizers of the proletariat and in their narrow minds that was the USSR

To those reading along: this user (@yianis@libretooth.gr) seems to spout generally weird incomprehensible garbage. I think it's just meant to be confusing gibberish. Report/block and move along, there's nothing meaningful here. (Radioactive/toxic content)

Churchill was loathed in South Wales because of sending soldiers into the Tonypandy miners' strikes.

Churchill also sent the barbarous Black & Tans to Ireland during the Independence War.

My gran (1895-1986) never had a bad word for anyone...except Churchill!

@theceoofanarchism He is one of those figures that is essentially above criticism though. It would be like speaking ill of one of the founding figures in the US. It does not invite calm discussion of history. It invites a cry of "Why do you hate your country!?"

Churchill has been eclipsed by his own myth. Maybe if he had stayed in power a little longer he would not be so fondly admired.
