Americans Roast Britain After Videos of Fainting Soldiers Go Viral – ‘How Did They Colonize India?’
A recent interaction on Twitter involving London guards, temperatures, and air conditioning has gone viral, with many getting a kick out of the responses from many users.
This all started when a Tweet from the news agency ITV news mentioned that a London guard fainted after temperatures passed 30 degrees Celsius, which is around 86 degrees Fahrenheit, and that this temperature was considered ‘overwhelming’ to some of the soldiers there.
That’s 86F. How did Britain colonize India? https://t.co/0SjhLyNUNE

A self proclaimed socialist who goes by the user @_PigginTeaBreak on Twitter, made a triggered threat to Americans who ‘lament about how 30C isn’t hot.’ He also made the claim that the summers in the U.K. are in fact worse than summers in the deep south.
If I see one more American lament about how 30C isn’t hot, I’m gonna go mad.
95% of American buildings are fitted with AC, contrast that with the UK’s 5%.
Having spent Summer in both the Deep South of the USA, and the U.K. – I can say for a fact that U.K. summers are worse. https://t.co/IFZmDA9JP1

Even his clarification about how the outside temperatures in the US are far worse than the UK could not stop the onslaught of replies from Americans that made fun of his statements. Many users were not afraid to call him a big baby, with many mocking the British accent in the replies.
One reply in particular decided to call him out in the most straightforward way:
30 degrees Celsius isn’t even remotely hot, and I grew up in a house with no AC.

The socialist then garnered up the courage to reply on how the user probably grew up in a house in America that was built for the climate.
I’m assuming you grew up in a house in the USA? As in, one that’s built for the climate, not say, a U.K. home with double the insulation.

Not only did he accidently prove that American houses are built far better than the UK houses, but he also showed that he was ignorant on the fact that the video has nothing to do with AC but everything to do with building heat resistance, which is a capability that every human is able to do.
Other users decided to take a different approach in clowning on the socialist, with many of them mentioning how the fainting has more to do with the outfits of the soldiers rather than the heat itself.
Yes, it’s the temperature, and not the big bearskin hat in June. 🙄 https://t.co/fepnyYbEUs

Some users detailed on how standing and locking your knees for an extended period of time can cause you to faint, and this could have been the cause of the fainting in the first place.
That isn’t a heat problem. Don’t lock your knees when standing at attention.

Even with the two theories circulating, many users decided to take the mocking approach, with many users telling the socialist off by telling his claims were completely false.
🙄🙄🙄 what’s the “Deep South”? It was 86 degrees here in Texas at 9:30 this morning. It’s only going to be 95 today. Next week it’ll be over 100. Several million people work outside in that heat daily. You should just take your L and move on. pic.twitter.com/zUkoMCcCNp

One ‘Deep South’ user went as far as to explain their experience in the UK weather:
As an American in London this very week, the outside temps are hot but not that hot. Nothing like home in Miami. Sleeping in the apartment without fans or air conditioning is quite difficult. I’m not sure why the UK and EU don’t have more window AC units. – @DocKilmer on Twitter
After the onslaught of tweets completely dismantling his original opinion, the socialist decided to double down on his belief on UK weather by writing the following tweet:
Not gonna be lectured by a country that has guns yet still boasts a higher homicide and knife crime rate, lower life expectancy, where 62% of bankruptcies are caused by medical bills – "muh freedom” though right?
— jude™ (@_PigginTeaBreak) June 11, 2023
The replies to this tweet were spot on, with many posting anti-UK memes in response.
— Wuweizea (@MartinZea11) June 12, 2023
A question asking why the UK doesn’t install AC units prompted one user to post statistics about the UK, with them comparing the UK to Texas:
GDP/capita is 1/3 lower in the UK. Energy prices are higher — $0.34/kWh vs $0.11 in Texas. And the UK needs air conditioning a week or two every year. Texas turns their off a week or three.

Users mostly replied to the triggered tweet with facts about how much better the US is than the UK in terms of freedoms.
Says the dude who will have the secret police bust in his door and throw him in jail for watching an unlicensed tv.

It is unclear if the British man ever admitted defeat in the Twitter war waged against him.
