    Wrexham 12-0 USA Women

    It didn't seem like it. I'm a fan of the USA goalkeeper, though. She did pull off some pretty decent saves.

    Kids These Days.

    If you hit a teacher in my country up until 1987 you would have got several strikes with a cane on your bare backside by the headmaster and spent the rest of the day in pain.

    Netflix's Cleopatra is Absolute Trash.

    No. Left-wing Americans were trying to portray her as black and thus trying to re-write Egyptian history and Egypt is angry. Egypt has criticised the USA over this. When a country is so woke (i.e. America) that it manages to anger another, then you know that it has serious problems. The problem...

    Netflix's Cleopatra is Absolute Trash.

    I vaguely remember a few years ago somebody posted a thread on the history forum depicting Cleopatra as black. When I objected to it he said that Cleopatra was the Egyptian pharaoh and so was black. I then pointed out that Cleopatra was Greek. I also find it quaint how Americans think all...

    Netflix's Cleopatra is Absolute Trash.

    Why do Americans feel the need to rewrite Egyptian history? The Egyptians are angry right now. It's one thing American wokeness impacting on America, but when it starts imposing its wokeness onto other countries that's when we need to say "Enough is enough" and start taking action. Leave your...
