"Dude everything you are whining about is exactly what the United Kingdom did to China a century ago. You burned down our Old Summer Palace forced the Chinese to swallow your opium in order to balance the trade deficit and looted so many Chinese artifacts to fill the British Museum. Britain can't force your culture on China just because you can't not because you suddenly have a moral upgrade. You are "pointing out hypocrisy" when you are the hypocrite. British comedian Pat Smith brilliantly points out the hypocrisy surrounding the subject of mass migration in the UK. https://t.co/RjKFBfJzqc"
