    Is there something exceptional about english-speaking white people that makes them such effective bootlickers?

      no, it’s the French that are the exception, we German-speaking white people aren’t very different from English-speaking ones either

        If I was to defend any argument, it would be that Romance peoples (French, Spanith, Portuguese, etc.) are more likely to protest than Germanic people (English, German, Scandinavian)

      A quick glance at uprisings and riots in British history might surprise you. I frequently-ish pass two buildings in Wales where the British Army shot and killed British people.
