military guards are respectful of the civilians they serve
The entire concept of the “we don’t stop marching” aesthetic is that it’s such a blatant display of oppression.
“At least it’s my King oppressing me, not those dirty French.”
Listening to the War Nerd Civil War series has been wild. The numbers of men then sent up an open hill to be killed by cannons.
Yeah but the US civil war was especially bloody for a war at the time, partially as they had only recently started using automatic guns
I can just imagine some british gammon defending the right video here.
“aye m8, that boi is a propa wanka for gettin in da way o’ da troops! [turning redder and redder] R-RESPECT THE SOLDIERS YOU WANKA!! {frothing]”
Commenters on the Daily Mail wanted the guard to shoot the kid. I wanna end this comment with “lmao” but that doesn’t feel right in this case.
I couldn’t have made this up. Don’t click this link: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10353195/Queens-Guardsman-flattens-child-stepped-path-Video.html?offset=8&max=100&jumpTo=comment-790906077#comment-790906077
you should read the reddit thread, it’s pretty much Americans and Brits falling over themselves to respecta the monarchist customs.
The comments for the brit video on :reddit-logo: were about how there were signs posted that they don’t stop for anyone and if they were out of formation they could lose their jobs. Literally ‘just following orders’ shit for trampling a child while doing monarchy cosplay.
oh well then that’s fine, I am sure they would accept the same excuse for a Chinese tank driver conspicuously (not) running someone over
If a hostile foreign power had armed protesters who were camping in front of Buckingham palace and were burning British soldiers alive, the tanks wouldn’t have had to run over them as they would have filled them with bullets first.
American police bulldoze protestors that live less than a mile away from them. And that’s the unarmed protestors…
it’s always funny to me how in the Horribly Oppressive Police State of China officers usually aren’t even armed
hearing that bullshit from brazilians is especially :chefs-kiss: as the police here walks around even fucking parking lots with rifles in their hands
keeping bri’ish culture alive
