The UK's socialised healthcare and welfare

Many brits like to flex against Americans, talking about how great it is that they have an NHS and all these handouts.

But then among themselves, they complain about the endless queues for the most basic of healthcare procedures, and the fact that every other person on welfare doesn't actually need it but treats going onto it like a lifestyle choice - some people want to be a teacher/doctor, some people are happy on a small welfare check to spend on drugs.

When we achieve the socialist utopia of your imagining I cannot wait to blow all of your tax dollars on distributing meth to animals in public parks

@sylvivresavie So you miss the point of the post, then when explained to you, you double down on childish insults? 🤨😆

@SumKindaMunster "treats going onto it like a lifestyle choice - some people want to be a teacher/doctor, some people are happy on a small welfare check to spend on drugs."

I don't think I missed the point of anything????

@TheEmperor I obviously was not saying that you are a socialist-if you had a firmer grasp of the language you would understand this

@sylvivresavie You did. It's not about that but rather comparing the British system to others around the world and finding it lacking.
sylvivresavie · 31-35
@SumKindaMunster Okay, but he still said that? And the implication of the whole thing is that socialized welfare systems including healthcare are bad? Like, he said what I responded to, I provided the quote. Me responding to that portion about welfare recipients being lifestylist drug fiends wasn't in error. I don't have to engage him on every point of his inane post.

@sylvivresavie Please continue, you are a delight.

@TheEmperor Apparently, she knows more about your intentions and meaning with your own post than you do!

@TheEmperor Okay buddy, let me spell it out for you. If you still don't understand, we'll use the colorful rainbow fridge magnet letters and see how that goes. You said people who use welfare are drug hounds. This is dumb and untrue. This is a socialism you have crafted put of your own distorted understanding of things. It is a socialist utopia of your imagining. I am mocking you for misrepresenting socialism. I am not actually going to use your tax dollars to hook squirrels on speed.

@SumKindaMunster I am enamored with how blithely and proudly obtuse you are
sylvivresavie · 31-35
@TheEmperor You're absolutely stunning, I just want you to know that. A real benchmark for anyone who says intelligence is a myth.

@sylvivresavie It doesn't occur to you that you are arguing about the intent and meaning of the post by the person who posted it?

If it does, why are you so stubbornly ignoring his replies and focusing on your erroneous interpretation?

And calling everyone else obtuse is really the cherry on your ignorance sundae. 😂
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@TheEmperor Agreed, you are stunning. Nothing else needs to be taken from her replies.

@SumKindaMunster This guy can barely tie his shoes I hardly imagine he understands the implications (and by implications I mean thing he literally outright said) of his own post

@sylvivresavie I think its actually a girl, but since "she" has no interest in being genuine, I don't see how it matters if you misgender her.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@sylvivresavie And you do, huh?

Again, do you realize how ridiculous and ignorant you sound? Arguing this point?
