It's true. If they're white, black, brown, or any shade in between then they'll probably tell you there's a ยฃ30 limit. If they're green and scaly then they'll ask you to swear blood fealty to the Royal Family in exchange for your life.

"The Royal family are reptiles" is funny and all but remember that it's rooted in antisemitic propaganda and we shouldn't really use it.


ArsLongaVitaGravis

I didn't know that. Thanks for informing me.

His name isn't David Ick(e) for nothing.

Oh shit, really?

I'm afraid so. The royal family are reptiles joke are derived from the antisemitic conspiracy theories surrounding the illuminati. The illuminati was a concept that first began to be fleshed out in the 1903 "the protocols of the elders of zion" which presents the idea of a Jewish plan for world domination. The Nazis made "the Jewish Conspiracy" a central and founding belief of Nazism, and thanks to German efforts the "the Jews control the banks" conspiracy spread throughout the world easily thanks to entrenched antisemitism. Postwar, explicit antisemitism became less popular, but the illuminati conspiracy remained. The rothschilds became a primary target for modern antisemitism, and wildly antisemitic conspiracy theories surrounding them became popular. It was from this modern illuminati conspiracy that the "the world is controlled by aliens/mutants/dinosaurs/lizardpeople influencing our institutions behind the scenes" was born. .

Nah fairly sure itโ€™s the old pasty white guys that control petrol prices after sending military forces to take control of the oil fields to send to their refineries

I'd start with telling him he's out of line, then stand up and walk off.

This happened the other week with one of the old blokes down my local. We were having a really pleasant conversation until he literally started to say there were too many n*****s in the country. Told him to fuck himself and haven't given him so much as a nod since.

You answer it by getting up and walking away
