Starmer backs Zelensky after Trump 'dictator' claim

The UK is still Europe.
-
The UK is still in Europe, just not an EU member
-
Nope, they Brexited
-
No they left and cut the whole nation off, it's an island now
-
We left the union (an action I fought hard against). We are still part of Europe (geographically ) however.

How can you be so confident, yet be so incorrect?

Right?!?!? Genuinely, I fucking hate feeling like I have some special predictive powers. I don’t. I just pay attention to what’s going on in the world while having an interest in history and geopolitics that tends to take me down rabbitholes in that domain. It simply cannot be so rare that we’re the only ones thinking of this shit. It’s not hard to extrapolate, and it’s not outlandish or unexpected.
I think this is part of why I’ve become such a misanthrope over the years: seeing “leaders” at every level (professional/corporate, local, state, federal) just doing the most vapid, idiotic plays possible instead of actually addressing the root causes of problems. It’s so deeply dismaying. At this point, I kinda believe it’s actually a core flaw that our society has developed.

i guess the entire landmass of the uk just drifted away when brexit happpened
-
Bring back Doggerland!

Japan has a history of working with Nazis, after all.

I'm guessing that being involved in government gave them a false sense of security that things could never get this bad in the US, since for all our faults we never went full Nazi, even in Trump's first term. Hell, the far right is making strides in a lot of governments around the world, so if they don't get their shit together they're gonna fall into the same fascist shithole that we have.
I kinda believe it’s actually a core flaw that our society has developed.
It is, and it's called capitalism. When capital is the driving force of everything, not the well-being of the people, this is an inevitable end result.

Yeah you can clearly see it's disconnected from the mainland now
-
Nope, they sawed it right off and filled the gap with water.
-
Look at a map, buddy. It's clearly not connected any more. It's floating alone all by itself.
