Exactly, different times, back then especially everybody was fighting everybody, everybody wanted an empire, and Scotland did as well, but the over funded darien shcheme led to Scotlands bankruptcy, and they literally begged England to wipe out their national debt, which led to the act of union being signed,

@iTzScadey100 Exactly and on the note of Braveheart be incorrect it is also so long in the past you shouldnt be allowed to say it a reason for hating the English. Thats like the English turning around and saying "Fuck France they used to have wars with us, infact we hate France so much we are going to war with them, No real reason just they used to kill us just as we used to kill them like 300 years ago" Only this is more like 800 years ago.

@geigoir Exactly, and this is a viewpoint i can't stand, most of it is all stemmed from watching braveheart, which is a good film but historically inaccurate, there is no reason the whole fuck the english attitude anymore, and breaking the union will not be good for Scotland, the oil won't last, and that seems to be alex salmonds biggest selling point, the oil, to me i feel a federal UK will be a better solution than breakup of the union

@iTzScadey100 Exactly some of them have a fair reason, they may not quite be able to sustain the country but the reasons are legit however this person is a "Braveheart fuck the English" who is mixing the time periods up between Braveheart and the Union in the 1600s.

@geigoir agreed 100%, now i am not completey anti-nationalist, as of course there are some nationalists who have some legitimate reasons to their views, i just can't stand the whole braveheart "fuck the english" attitude, and the "fuck the queen" attitude as well

[geigoir]

@iTzScadey100 It would certainly have an awful affect, i too am Scottish born i have lived in both England and Scotland and am currently in Scotland but i can see that what the Scottish nationalist seem to take for granted like clean water, good road conditions ect. are all catered for by what he calls the theiving British people, Which whether he likes it or not is himself.

@geigoir This wee lad looks like 13/14 to me?I'm Scottish born, now living in Northern Ireland, most Scottish Nationalism seems to be the same as irish"they took our land, they oppressed us, they forced us into union" all romanticised bullshit, we are stronger together than divided, i am a unionist, and fully believe that the breakup of our union will be disastrous for all 4 countries involved and the commonwealth

[geigoir]

@iTzScadey100 This fucking idiot seems to think the term British means English invading Scotland and killing everyone. Well besides the fact that they accepted the Union offer so there was really no blood shed, the highland clearence meant that people went to places in the Empire so his family were probably the ones who killed the Scottish he says we killed. He's and idiot no of his videos make sense and are mostly bullshit he doesnt understand.
