Our cousins .... as Orwell put it, as soon as they became aware of a foreign race, they invented an insulting nickname for them.
We went from ‘colonists’ to ‘Yankee doodles.’
And once their Morlocks learn to swear at them in their own language (Kipling?), we’ll see the real mettle of the BBC Eloi.
And for that matter, maybe in this country.

LOL! I get the Time Machine references; but do not recognize and could not find the "swear" quote anywhere online.
