    I didn’t really associate the stereotype of bad teeth with lower class British people. AFAIK the stereotype comes from even rich British aristocrats supposedly having bad dental care.

    That said, you are right that applying that stereotype to specific people without first checking if they’re upper class is more likely to hit lower class people, especially with how culture has shifted since the stereotype was first formed.

      So your classism is more about the USA being better than the British then being about rich and poor. 👌

        That’s not classism, it’s more nationalism.

          It’s okay to be classist about British people they have literal classes and should in fact be mocked for it

            Absolutely wild that they have a class system and most don’t even choose something interesting like warlock

          As an archivist in our related field, I can confirm that you are a true master

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
