Want to See a Modern Country Commit Suicide? Take a Hard Look at Britain

Let me put that in more formal terms: Brits are living through a catastrophic plunge in living standards. It’s the kind of catastrophic plunge which has little modern parallel. Cardboard cutouts of food? Not being able to treat water? You’d have to go back to the Weimar Republic to encounter such levels of ruin. In modernity, the only remotely close parallel is the debt crises that Latin American and Asian countries used to suffer — which caused massive shutdowns in basic public services, and led to failed systems for basics, just like Britain’s experiencing now.

Say what? Lol they essentially colonized most of the world. That’s why English is the dominant language. Even the great USA was colonized by them. Oh there’s more. Ever heard of Canada?

Told y'all Brexit was MAGAS retarded cousin with bad teeth

Don't worry, we'll start seeing the effects of MAGA soon, and there will be TLR regulars here to tell us it's Bidens fault too

Just like Obama cleaning up Bush's stupidity, Americans can't help themselves

We're getting a glimpse of that with Trump's stupid ass tariffs fukking with the supply chain

 

[Piff Perkins]

Same thing happening here

Nah the difference is the US is still the US. The UK threw their economy and standing in the trash and are no longer a consequential nation. London used to be the financial capitol of Europe. It’s not anymore. Germany and France have replaced them as the dominant European nations, and main US allies. It’s bad..

Yeah, Britain is really screwed, Brexit is longterm deep economic damage that can't be undone.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

How did Britain even become such a thing?... The world should be talking Arabic or Urddu or Ruski..

But America doesn't even have its own language..its English..

their coach drew up the right plays at the right time

I dont follow Britain politics, was it a right-wing party that pushed for brexit? I imagine so.
Like we had several right-wing presidents around the world and they all have failed miserably.
Trump.
Bolsanaro.
Duterte.

Yes. They got a literal knockoff Trump to whip all the racist tea sippers into a frenzy over immigrants and nationalism. So they decided to leave the EU and all their benefits.

Now they realizing they

Britain will never be screwed..they always a step ahead of everyone..Germany and France know this too.

America in denial that's why them maga want to live their version of the nazi years and solve conflict with weapons.

UK hitched its wagon to the US post-WWII & the US is now in the first stages of decline

Shouldve stuck with old man Europe, at least they're a closer market

Is this real or political hyperbole? Is quality of life really deteriorating to this level?

 

[I Really Mean It]

The far right are accelerationists who don’t care about the economic ruin their policies will inflict.

That’s the point.
