  • Stay Classy, Europe



    It's a long ass video but the first minute pretty much summarizes it.

    Now you see, I thought this thread was going to be about this:

    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

      I'm glad there's no racism in Philly.

        Europe is so open about its racism, it is amazing.

          Yeah, you have a lot of idiots (especially since Poland and Ukraine were suffering heavily during ww2). Good find.

          Now, not that long ago there was this video about a US "pastor" suggesting his solution to his gay "problem". There were also a lot of people in that room cheering and clapping. Stay classy US or just a bunch of idiots ?

            You'll find there's a slight East-West distinct, and in the place with the most dangerous compound of nationalism and everyday racism, it comes very subtly. There is now a campaign aimed at German football aficionados to grow their beards as long as the team stays in the Euro tournament. The advertising video has a number of German dudes 'recognize' each other from beardness in public places. Very eery if you consider the nationalist subtone, although without that context it could as well be thought of as a promotion of gay pride.

              I like how Al persists in regarding Europe as some sort of monolithic entity even as it disintegrates.

                  To Elok:

                  That is a very extreme view you have there. I see no signs of disintegration. Probably some countries will be kicked out of the EURO zone but politically the EC doesn't seem to change all that much. (just an observation, not my personal opinion on whether it should break down and dissolve or not in its current shape and form).

                    Okay, revised statement: I like how Al persists in regarding Europe as some kind of monolithic entity even as current events show that different parts of it have very different lifestyles, goals and priorities.

                    See? Not as catchy.

                      He should atleast distinguish between the general Europeans and the French!

                        The Greeks are rapidly becoming the new French.
