    Meanwhile, average Britons are fighting over migrants and lgbt. What I find is that none of those politically opinionated on these ever talk about economics. Odd, that people seemed to have talked less about taxing the rich and wealth inequality than before. Gee, I wonder if it’s because surveillance capitalism and techno-feudalism want people distracted from the theft of ordinary people’s wealth by the rich?

      “Stupid” does not apply here, unless you have an alternative version of reality. Corrupt politicians with no morals will sell the country if they get a cut, regardless of how it might affect those around the world, having only a selfish interest (for reelection purposes and whatnot) in the relative well-being of the citizens. This is logical and expected… they’re not stupid, they’re just amoral, selfish, greedy, unrepenting and inhumane folks. 🤷

    This deal would have been part of the agreements made with the US Administration. Part of the capitulation to illiberal forces.
