I never, never thought that we would see a headline like “The USA is threatening the UK with sanctions if they block a website where you can generate child porn”. It’s truly insane what is currently happening.

Yep usa is so fucked up. And I do not see much protest there. So it will get worse.

There's quite a few protests, but they're weirdly not being widely reported or televised. Funny how that works.

I was in a small one just a few days ago.

Letting all your media consolidate into the hands of a few oligarchs will have that effect.

“Letting”

Yeah sorry guys. That was me.

In the US, it was the fault of the 30 percent of Americans who don’t give a shit and couldn’t be bothered to get off their asses and vote.

Not sure why you’re letting off the other 30 who voted from Trump. They go in the bin too.

The idea that only a third of us are good citizens is sobering but completely believable. Jefferson worried about this at length in his writings. He was right on that count.

Or the Democratic leadership and specifically Bill Clinton who enabled this.
