[Kalis]

I don't mean to start another shit posting fest but... those kind of attacks have in fact tripled since Brexit.

If 17 million people were committing hate crimes, it would have done more than just tripled.

That's true. Having said that, it's still a worrying pattern.

It's not a pattern because it happens one year. If it continues happening year after year then there is a pattern.

This could just be an odd statistical anomaly for all we know. There's been those before with crimes.

How do they even tell the poles apart from the british people?

If Harlow is anything like the rest of Essex, then the locals would be the bright orange ones.

Must be coincidence. It is pretty worrying to humans though. AI might differ.

The Polish are working.

If you allow me a bit of dark humor... did they really not have a better picture of the guy?

They also don't weight a ton. C-C-Combo

Why the hate against the poles? ive been there and they are really friendly, atleast to swedes.

We can hope those kids never get to taste freedom in along time.

Polish are super chill. Was up in Krakow and Warsaw for a week, really enjoyed my time there.

Poor Polandball...

This irks me as well, I can't even get inside the head of the people going about and doing these crimes. Awful.

Such people shouldn't be allowed to vote on anything in any sensible society.

Fan-fucking-tastic.

By ''selling their country 30 years ago'', I suppose the poster meant ''refused to be Russian slaves anymore''. Because Russia own Poland. Russia Today says so, so it must be true.

[Garnier Fructis]

"Racism" and "xenophobia" are only applicable to native inhabitants of a place. If Poles destroyed their own country 30 years ago, sold the remains, and migrated to UK, you cannot label the negative feelings of the true UK inhabitants to them as "xenophobia". They are guests, and must depart if their hosts do not want them there.

Do you even know what xenophobia means? That concept only makes sense when talking about people who aren't native inhabitants.

[Tackhisis]

No, it only makes sense when talking of native autochthonous inhabitants of multiple ethnicities, religion, or such. It is by definition cannot be applied to FOREIGN citizens living in a country, because people are not obligated to accept foreign citizens.

I work with a Polish guy and he's one of my favorite people in the world

[Celista]

Why would someone take/use a photo of the dead dude on his cell phone at a funeral or memorial service? That seems weird.

Go look up the definition of xenophobia. Foreigners is right in the definition.

[dd614]

Brexit has nothing to do with racism and xenophobia or with stupidity and ignorance. Nope! Nothing!

It was a totally well reasoned and compassionate vote aimed at curtailing the abuses of the evil evil evil abuses of the dictatorial EU.

Yup.

Uhum.

Brexit won, and this line of leftist crybaby sarcasm is what lost it for your side.
