    the eu is illegitimate. i didn’t vote for them, effectively no one did. they decide without consultation. is it ok to kidnap their politicians now?

      I’m not crazy about EU and there are certainly parts of it that are dodgy, but we do actually vote our EU representatives, the fact that you personally didn’t doesn’t mean it’s illegitimate.

      Does that mean Britain was right to vote for Brexit? I thought that was universally seen as a dumb move on par with voting for Trump.

          We should all be hoping other member States also exit. Polish exit is currently trending. Hopefully it goes through.

          We can all hate the US but let’s not forget that EU isn’t some saint. Only reason they’re not as savage as the US is because they are effectively neutered vassals
