    I’ll let you onto a little secret about Europeans: we don’t don’t give half a shit about the US and their “politics”.

    You may well argue that we have your bases in our territory, NATO and your social networks influencing our lives, but I see that as our internal problem of still having to grow a proper pair, rather than an interesting consequence of whatever medieval situation you’re brewing in there.

    And you wish you were in a cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in a boring one.

      It’s perfectly fine not to care about another country’s politics, but WTF do you mean putting “politics” in scare quotes? You’re just being condescending for the sake of being condescending, and you’re doing it to someone who is pretty clearly trying to explain things in good faith. If you’re not interested, just don’t read it. It’s not that hard.

        My “politics” is because I don’t think that any politically relevant (especially for the rest of the world) decision in the US is taken in or by the appointed institutions. And recent events, including the news we are commenting on here, are confirmation of this.
