    I guess in a fucked up way it’s good to know the Brits and by association the Europeans are just as vile and evil as us. I mean, I know we all have the same capacity for good and evil, but EU smugness is rampant and unhelpful. They need a dose of reality too.

      We would if we could, as we have historically done. But, hey, if a thief gets his hands cut and can never steal again, that still means he’s less damaging for the world (whether he wanted it or not). Let’s focus on Burgerland, since the UK and some (most?) European countries are just sidekicks without much individual power to coerce the world. I highly doubt that the French or British empire will rise again, you know?
