Is this really the content that we want for @news ?
We have an endless reserve of European politicians talking about other European politicians. At least try to keep this kind of content for @politics.
To the three of you who downvoted me without a word of explanation: we can see who downvotes who on kbin.
So I ask you, why did you downvote me and why do you think that this guy talking to his fellow politicians is news worthy? We are not on an american website anymore, the rest of the world doesn't care about the american constant struggle and crying about politicians saying stuff.

The destruction of queer rights in the US will harm me regardless of me ever setting foot in the country.
Don't be ridiculous.
I don't think they're being ridiculous to say that US politics has an impact outside of the US. To quote a former Canadian Prime Minister:
"Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt."
