Brexit is still delivering all the "I told you so"s. It's less fun than it sounds.
Yeah there seems to be this palpable expectation on Lemmy that any day now half of the voting public is going to have some realisation and say "oh my god what have we done".
It doesn't work like that though.
Most of the actual retarded things Trump said he would do like the tariffs et cetera will be done in performative way. Done in a way that isn't too disruptive or harmful but still lets him say he stuck it to China.
The more insidious project 2025 stuff isn't applied in real time. How does the media report on the slow corrosion of quality of life and rights to privacy et cetera.
Yeah, people keep saying "This time they'll see!" But, aside from the occasional "leopards ate my face" moment, the same people keep lining up for more of the same.
And much of the consequences are sloughed off on the people who are fighting hardest against it.
They're fucking around, and we end up finding out.
Still pretty fun not being in the UK. Though I do feel bad for everyone not having voted for this shit.
It's been nearly 10 years and we're still getting fucked by it.
God damn has it been that long?
Well it depends on if you count from when we voted for it or when we actually did it.
México too, we go with «Disfruten lo votado», bitches get mad about it
What does it mean and whats the context? Actually curious as an ignorant non spanish speaking EU person.
In English, it's more or less telling people to "enjoy what you (all) voted for".
