A nicer quiz....
Madelina de Melrose
Dear eUK,
Apparently according to our neo-Nazis, a “good” quiz is one about a mass murderer. Since there are more than enough mass murderers (and neo-Nazis) in the world already, I thought I’d bring you a quiz that invokes love, not hate....
The Summer of Love
It’s been 50 years since the iconic Summer of Love, that point where those who decried the VietNam war, those who wanted to see racial equality, those who wished to throw off the overconstricting social mores that demeaned whole sectors of society, came to a shining point in the summer of 1967. How much do you know of this glorious period of history?
1. The Summer of Love started with a call for a mass gathering in which
place?
a. Los Angeles, California
b. London, England
c. New York City, New York
d. San Francisco, California
2. The ideal of the period was the dawning of the Age of what?
a. Aquarius
b. Pisces
c. Aries
d. Capricorn
3. Which iconic album was released during the Summer of Love?
a. The Wall by Pink Floyd
b. Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles
c. Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
d. Thriller by Michael Jackson
4. The centrepoint of the movement was the intersection of which streets?
a. Broadway and 63rd
b. Tottenham Court Rd and Oxford St
c. Champs-Elysees and Avenue de Marigny
d. Haight and Ashbury Streets
5. The wider introduction of veganism, organic food and whole grains to the
world’s attention was one result of the Summer of Love. The New York
Times had one thing to say about it – which was...
a. Meat is Murder!
b. The Hippies Won
c. Draft them all and cut their hair
d. They’re just kids playing house on a large scale

I literally have no idea what are the answers to these, the quiz with Goebbels was much easier (tbh he has more to do with the UK than the summer of love 😃 )
And the Vietnam war was a good war, being that the USA lost it 🙂
For all you non eUK people, here is the link to the better quiz... https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-euk-bestpcp-s-best-quiz-2655591/1/20
Eh, i'd say both quizzes are pretty lame myself.
Needs more Pandas
Pandas are a rubbish animal.
I spent £500 going to Edinburgh Zoo so the missus could see em. All we saw was his arse... any animal that refuses to breed deserves to no longer live!
I've read that in China they've decided to show pandas videos of other pandas having sex to encourage them to actually do it 😃
just shoot em, it'd be cheaper and less weird...
The U.S. lost to communists, a good war indeed
they may have won that battle, but they have defo lost the war...
I support anyone against the US...communists, islamists, whoever...
Who are the neo-Nazis?
Also, how many 'neo-nazis' do you think exist in the world...
People always mention the neo-Nazis of the eUK, but I never see names, not sure who are the neo-Nazis and why...
It's mainly used as a weapon to silence people, much like RACIST is used to shut people up when they say something about forigs, regardless of the label used. Take the Leave vote for example. People were called RACIST over that. Can you name me a non-white EU country? cuz last time I checked Europeans were Caucasian. Something to do with weak sunlight based on the geographical location of European countries...

Definately dawning of the age of Aquarius.
Sgt Pepper came out about the same time and had :- Lucy in the sky among the tracks.
I have to mention "If your going to San Fransisco" by Scott McKenzie written by John Phillips of Mamas & Papas.
The era passed over my head somewhat as I was having teenage troubles at home.
Anyway peace and love man, and take some flowers to S.F.
That place reminds me of London built across a welsh valley.
v + s
boring
So boring, not one person answered correctly. The first four, most got. It was #5... the correct answer was "b: The Hippies Won"
