<:GWgoaThinken:405753076432109573> ironic to somehow attribute this as unique to islam

they cannot willingly kill off the private sector as much as they want to show that brexit is a recipe for disaster which is not and hyperbolised to paroxistic levels

they can only bitch and moan as the industry goes on

with or withhout their lamentations that stop at the gates

nice

xD

I'm not attributing to them solely, mind you; Human history reads like a series of petty conflicts and conquests followed by the collapse of empires. The difference is that just about everyone else grew up.

I want people to see that britain can manage local governance and hopefully take that example to their own provinces/states in unions like the USA

States need to do their own soft "exits" to varying degrees

People in office need to grow up

the USA works because it's `one people`

It really isn't.

a federated EU would be a disaster

too many different languages and cultures

The culture gap between, say, a San Francisco creature and a Texan oil rig worker is pretty tremendous.

yeah won't argue with that

But if people learn to live and learn from each other while respecting differences, the lesson could theoretically be universal

we have regional snowflakes here too

Generally, cultures in the US are aligned along fairly broad regions, though there are exceptions.

Hence the "moral good" in having states

The original idea was that states had full ability to run their own internal affairs, and the federal government was there to mediate between states and deal with foreign powers. States don't really have rights anymore, if you ask the federal government.

Yeah, but the states dont trust themselves

Everyone has hierarchies skewed and they see the higher ups as big daddy whom in which we all supposedly trust

I am an advocate of a World Wide Technoracy based on Meritocracy, but I'm going to die and wait 10 thousand years before that even comes to light

Maybe if china and america had a baby

and each entity has a council instead of a "minister"

yeah system crash

pretty accurate

The shame about the downfall of American culture is that it's only making everyone unhappy. Before, if you wanted to live in a hippy trippy shithole, you could just move to california. IF you wanted to be left alone, you'd move to the midwest. But, they're being sorta forced into being the same, kicking and screaming the whole way.

Wtf happened to peace and love and shit

eventually things will run out

What will run out

parasitism is not sustained indefinitely

but the most vocal of them are kids that never worked a day in their lives

and have rich parents

and no sense of how to manage wealth

or be responsible with it

Fucking burning man
