The United Kingdom, a place that never saw a contractor outsourcing arrangement it didn’t like, but which still uses a racial caste system for assigning jobs in the navy. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, sink that stupid island
Because usually white westerners tend to not be desperate enough to accept such shitty conditions and pay. Unless you’re polish, in which case British people will complain that not enough are slaving away in the UK. Also watch white lotus season 1.
I expect immigrants are actually doing the laundry via 3 layers of subcontractors for the US Navy too, but it’s not like they’re stipulating that they have to be specifically Guatemalan or whatever
On the boats sailors do their own laundry, unless you’re an officer in which case your laundry is done by lower enlisted, and lower enlisted is comprised predominantly by minorities. The laundry folks also hustle on the side and will do your laundry if you pay them.
Pulling into port the Navy usually arranges some sort of pier side laundry service ran by whatever ethnic minority is being oppressed in that particular region.
Stateside there are laundry services on bases, and you pretty much nailed how they work.
Yeah, but this isn’t a thing where a job is all brown people because they are who is in need of the work, these folks were specifically recruited BECAUSE they were Chinese and they are now replacing them with Nepalese people. These aren’t regular jobs in the Navy.
The Gurkahs (who serve in the UK due to a 19th century agreement) are also known for being extremely competent special forces and mountain infantry so this is some Stevan Segal in Under Siege bullshit.
Why is it so fucking important that the people washing the clothes not be white
Why do the people washing the clothes need to be a specific ethnicity
Why does the UK have a special caste of born special people that have special government protections simply because they were born special? 👑
Cromwell’s failure to plan appropriately for succession and a general disappointing lack of follow-through
As a naive liberal decades ago I used to wonder why the Romanovs were targeted all the way up and down the family tree. It seemed excessive.
when you’re pulling weeds you have to get the whole root
Or give them the puyi treatment
Actually Cromwell was a genocidal fucking psychopath, and fuck him and his entire movement.
the question wasn’t “was Cromwell a good guy” it was “why does the UK still have a monarchy”
Fair enough. I misread the initial question.

On ships laundry is done by enlisted men or in self-serve laundry facilities. I’m sure they use the 3-layers of graft off the ships though.
The US Navy is culturally very different from the Royal Navy going way back to its inception.
Correct. Through various means.

Do you think we could get gammons to oppose this is we framed it as taking jobs from white people
To be fair anglos aren’t the most hygienic people in the world. I certainly wouldn’t trust inbred island teutons with my hygiene.

they are also massively screwed over with their pensions compared to their British army counterparts. It’s straight up bullshit
