The worst enemy of english people is actually their unique superiority complex - the idea that they are inherently destined to be better than other cultures and the extreme, consistent role this plays in gaining political support. It’s an intoxicating thought that they constantly crave, even if they deny its reality with pragmatic justifications. It’s the reason behind their irresponsible risk taking (brexit), their endless exceptionalist propaganda (the BBC lying about “administering the world’s first” covid vaccine, overlooking the international effort behind preliminary clinical trials) and the reason a keyword like “sovereign” is used to characterise their (probably) unrealistic AI ambitions.
