@lapizistik@social.tchncs.deUnd die Amis so: dann wollen wir's der Welt mal zeigen, für uns ist Demokratie halt auch, ein Arschloch und Sexualverbrecher mit dem Charme und Gebaren eines Gebrauchtwarenhändlers, der selbige Demokratie abschaffen will, zum Präsidenten zu wählen.
Und jetzt haben sie's der Welt gezeigt – und damit den #Brexit klar übertrumpt [sic!].
Andrerseits sollten wir da gar nicht so…

@villavelius@mastodon.onlineAnother #Brexit bonus. British-born dual citizen cannot enter the UK on their non-UK passport. Unlike foreigners they cannot travel to Britain on a visa or an ETA, but they must have a UK passport. Yet lapsed UK passports may not be renewed in case of name change, particularly for women (e.g. married vs. maiden name). It's a fine mess.
@pre@boing.worldOne of the best things about Brexit is how we left a power-block in which we had a veto and a vote and a large soft power reputation and a real say in it's policy and outcomes.
And now, instead, we have to do whatever the mad king in America wants. Bomb whoever he wants. Let him store his weapons and his bombs here. Fly his airplanes on our runways. Pay whatever tariff on trade he demands, accept his hormone ridden meat and unsanitary chicken processes.
And we have less say in it all than Puerto Rico, much less than any actual full blown state.
We ceded control of the EU to Germany, just abandoned any say in what happens there for no reason at all, and are left begging treats from a powerful clown's table like a yapping little toy dog.
The final step down the power-escalator, from empire to now less say in world affairs than Austria or Finland which at least have EU voting rights and members in the EU parliament.
Now just airport 1, a runway which the US uses as it pleases and no say in anything.
What a move from England, absolute masterclass of dim witted self destructive spite. Couldn't hope for a better example. Textbook. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
