Private platform, can do what they want. Wasn't that the mindless retort you'd scrawl in comment sections under previous ownership?

So? What's your issue working with British and/or Indian people?

He is British.

How many people did the government led by Tony Blair kill, by the way? Or do we only care about British lives?

@dang, here's a member calling for the execution of members of a political party.

Would be nice to open a HN thread and not see an Indian nationalist spout xenophobia about the British. Even if just for one day.

Knowingly preventing ambulances from reaching those in urgent need or transporting critically ill patients to a hospital is violence.

You have a poisonous, race and gender obsessed world view.

Did their clarification truly merit such a snarky response?

> I've met British people who've been in NZ since the 1980s who still consider themselves ex-pats - and can still complain about how our Weetbix is nothing like good ol Weetabix.

How is this different to any other migrant who misses something from their homeland? Why does it bother you, and why do you see it as an indication of a deficiency of mindset? Shall I similarly hold something against migrants in the UK who prefer something about their homeland? I can't imagine keeping this attitude.

I've lived in other countries but have never called myself an expat. In my experience, the term has been used exclusively by others, mostly non-white people, to describe me.

It's no different from Chinese migrant communities in my hometown calling themselves "Overseas Chinese".

My wife's parents last week were able to accept delivery of only 3 garlic bulbs, a small cabbage and one or two other root vegetables. Every night they have to spend hours desparetly trying to put items in their basket, hoping that what they place in it remains in stock for longer than a few seconds. If the order is successful there is little certaintly that you'll get what you ordered. Some people will receive fresh meat and fish, many others won't.

So no, it's not a little weird if you engage your brain and attempt to show a modicum of empathy or understanding of the situation.

My wife is a proud Shanghainese and her parents have until now lived an extremely comfortable life in government and in academia. She's now determined to relocate them having seen them confined to a building, barred from leaving for even essential supples (water and food), by a leadership that has shown itself to be too incompotent to ensure adequate measuress have been put in place to prevent malnourishment for many.

Isn't intentional misinformation a contradiction in terms? Perhaps you meant to say disinformation?

Complicit isn't quite accurate though, is it?

Is there a claim to the contrary in the article?

Can Nashville be classified as right-wing? Was a motive uncovered that isn't yet presented on Wikipedia?

Surely the Bostom bombings and El Paso, Foot Hoo, Orlando & San Bernardino shootings count as more destructive domestic terror attacks (assoicated with various groups). Perhaps I have misundertood and you are speaking specifically of structural damage.
