Thank you for that info.
HOWEVER
It doesn't seem to be a direct answer to my question, Viz:

I'm unclear if the ppl from US/A (in AmDam) are critical of how the pandemic has been mismanaged:

* In NL
Or
* In US/A

Please clarify.

Thank you ........... Dank je.

My response about "Blighty" will follow.

"In his First World War autobiography Good-Bye to All That (1929), the writer Robert Graves attributes the term "Blitey" to the Hindustani word for "home" WikiP

 

To give you a hint of my stance:

Brexit is the biggest con trick ever perpetrated on the people of this country.
Nobody yet has been able to state what the possible benefits could be.
Anyone with eyes in their heads can clearly see Brexit is an act of self destruction
which will impose complete loss of rights and freedom and contaminate our
lives with poverty, suffering and degradation to a degree that only those who
lived through the last war have any experience of. What is astonishing is the
fact that nearly half the voters were conned by foreign hating extreme right
fascists who will become very much wealthier at the expense of over 99% of
us.
How can people be so stupid?

 

If I was a Brit, I would be all for Brexit, quit the anonymity of the failed EU experiment and take pride in individual nationhood again, I guess Britain and America are more independent than the EU provinces

 

Dear Citizens of the US/A.

I heard your president refer to the "Democratic" Party's candidate for the forth-coming election as a "Socialist"
Not: A Social Democrat; a Liberal; nor a Christian Democrat but a SOCIALIST.

On what grounds does this "Well Right of Centre", "Democratic" Party's candidate deserve to be honoured
with the title of "SOCIALIST"?

 

D G that you're NOT a Brit.​

I respect the Royal pageantry, but your asses were kicked out 200 years ago, to bad you cant keep your business out of America....or maybe just you can stay out, but I doubt that,.... obsessive twat that you are!

 

Seems the Joe.k is...

 

These goofy nuts spend their days watching old John Wayne movies and think they are real!

 

Hold on now.
You got an issue with John Wayne, pilgrim?

 

@shootersa

How about here, in Portland, where the Federal buildings downtown have been targeted for protests for over 5 months now?


How many dead?
How many injured?
How much property damage?
How many laws broken?

@shootersa

I don't know.
There are so many mass murders and outbreaks of violence by the agents of the State
and Central Gov't in US/A that our media, mainly controlled by Oz/Brit/Yankee mogul
Murdoch, wouldn't have room for news of FWONA if they covered ALL of your terrorist
attacks "Of, By and Against" your own citizens.

After all =

 

You really are delusional, are you taking your meds, and does the Unit nurse, know you have access to the internet?

These ideas can be treated with Paranoia and Delusional Aggression therapy, I suggest you give it a try, might help

 

It's not you who is objectional, it's your ideas and your belligerent way of
expressing them that I'm countering.
It seems that the Woodstock generation has been clubbed, whipped and
bludgeoned back into conformity.

 

Protesters in MAGA hats and flying Confederate flags swarm Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Utah, Wyoming, New York and Virginia to demonstrate 'tyrannical' and 'unconstitutional' lockdown orders that are 'worse than the virus'

• Thousands of protesters drove to Michigan's State Capitol to protest Democratic Gov Whitmer Wednesday
• They waved Confederate flags, showed off Trump 2020 posters and held banners saying 'Heil Whitmer'
• In Utah protesters held signs that read 'Resist like it's 1776' and 'America will never be a socialist country'
• And in Kentucky protesters shouted out as Democratic Governor Andy Beshear spoke to the state
• A Reopen North Carolina Facebook page has 42,000 members; a protester was arrested there Wednesday
• And a startling image from Ohio shows a baying crowd at the window of the Statehouse Atrium on Monday
• In Virginia a protest against Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam's lockdown took place on Thursday
• New York residents also took the streets Thursday despite the Empire State being the epicenter of the virus
• In Wyoming protesters led calls to 'defend liberty' and urged Gov. Mark Gordon to not 'flatten the economy'.

 

Once-upon-a-Time it was acceptable to mock and deride people with rude
and demeaning remarks about their state of physical health.
Words such as "Cripple" "Spastic" etc were used.
As society moved on, such epithets became unacceptable.
Some turned to words concerning mental health.
Those too became passé as health was seen as a continuum or a spectrum.
However, there are those who cling to outdated expressions to try to
de-legitimize the PoVs of those with whom they disagree.

All they do is to demonstrate that their mindset is
verging on the ante-diluvian.

 

I think you just have a problem with America in general, BFD to everything above, whats your problem, this is America not your mythical utopia...got no problem with Antifa or BLM riots...hypocritical dumbass,
that's what I dont like about you, your blind opinionated hypocrisy and your assumption to understand America....and your just a nasty person

 

You want something modern...go fuck yourself, you arrogant prick!......You started this round, and you know it, and you will lie about it, as you always do...PRICK!

 

A coffee shop owner in central Los Angeles wrote on his business' door:
“Dogs and Muslims are not allowed"...
.... then walks in three boxing world champions ...
the ex-world champion Mike Tyson,
the present world boxing champion,
the Swede Bado Jack, and
their Imaam, present world kick-boxing champion, Palestinian A’amer Abdallah ...
the coffee shop owner and his staff watching in humiliation as they pray right there,
in the center of his shop.
There stands the owner, like a dog with, proverbially, his tail between his legs...
Too scared to say even one word.
Allah uses whom He will to protect the honor and integrity of his Deen...

Allahu Akbar

 

Not surprising, they've had their bell's rang so many times they are too punch drunk to read.....

 

So dearest American right wing crackpots and nutjobs.

One of your favourite haunts was removed from the internet but guess who came to the rescue.......yes the Russians and you are now sharing a server with Hamas!

Good job!

Far-right online forum 8chan kicked offline after protection services are cut
Site was back online Monday morning with a Russian company enlisted to protect it from DDoS attacks

The latest incarnation of the hate-filled online forum 8chan was temporarily kicked off the internet on Sunday, after a company protecting the site from DDoS attacks cut its services.

The site, which is now called 8kun but was formerly known as 8chan, was back online on Monday morning, security researcher Brian Krebs reported, with a Russian company freshly enlisted to provide the protection services.

8chan/8kun is a far-right message board and notorious bastion of hate speech. It’s the birthplace of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which originated from anonymous posts made there by a user named ‘Q’ who baselessly claimed the existence of a secret cabal of pedophiles running a global child sex-trafficking ring.

The site had been bouncing around to various service providers since internet infrastructure company Cloudflare booted it off its platform in 2019, amid reports the forum was used by the suspects in several mass shootings to post white nationalist manifestos ahead of the attacks.

The latest 8chan version was being kept online by one internet provider, Washington state-based VanwaTech. The connection between the forum and VanwaTech was first reported on Twitter by Fredrick Brennan, an American software developer who helped create 8chan but has since cut ties with it over its hate and violence and spends time tracking down sites that enable it.

Unlike other providers, VanwaTech refused to sever its ties with 8chan/8kun, citing the protection of free speech, according to Krebs’ report.

But VamwaTech was working with Oregon-based CNServers LLC to protect 8 chan/8kun from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, and CNServers did bow to the pressure.

Over the weekend, CNServers cut ties with VanwaTech and the 254 websites it protected for the company upon learning about the 8chan ties. A large number of the other sites dedicated to QAnon were also affected by the outage.

On Monday, it appeared that VanwaTech had found another protection service to replace CNServers, the Russia-based ddos-guard.net. 8kun now shares a server with militant group Hamas and others who have been pushed off mainstream hosting sites.

The situation underscores the complex infrastructure that keeps sites such as 8chan/8kun online. CNServers does not directly work for VanwaTech but for Spartan Host, which routes internet addresses on behalf of VanwaTech. While Spartan Host and VanwaTech refused to stop hosting 8chan, CNServers was able to cut ties for all of them.

The founder of Spartan Host has repeatedly defended his decision to keep 8chan and affiliated sites online.

“We follow the ‘law of the land’ when deciding what we allow to be hosted with us, with some exceptions to things that may cause resource issues etc.,” said Ryan McCully, Spartan Host’s founder, to Krebs. “Just because we host something, it doesn’t say anything about [what] we do and don’t support; our opinions don’t come into hosted content decisions.”

CNServers and VanwaTech did not respond to request for comment.
