The disdain, distrust, and dehumanisation aimed at lads in tracksuits, gold, and caps - the classic white, working-class British outfit, is absurd. Restaurant bans on these clothes are just a thinly veiled way of saying “white, working-class lads are not welcome here.” People talk with such hostility you’d think their families were devoured by tracksuit wearers, yet it’s this very British working class that fundamentally built modern Britain.

    They’re, as a whole, too drunk and/or drugged up, distracted and overall ideologically confused to tackle any societal issues in earnest?

    Btw, are you the same guy posting about people drowning in the UK and how that is (or not?) the result of murder? I’m not a mod, I’m just curious. ✌️

    How ya been Pony? Still trying to convince Lemmy ‘chav’ is as bad as the words used to insult people based on race? You know it won’t work, right?
