    These days i sometimes get sad from the things happening in the world. Those moments i try and remind myself that despite all those things happening, at least my country isn’t run by US politicians.

      I’m a brit and we have around 3 years to point and laugh at the US until we get our own Poundland version.

      Germany and France also appear a bit shakey on this front 🤦

        When this started about ten years ago or whatever, you guys were about 5 years behind.

        Taking your 3-year at face value it makes sense because this shit accelerated very damn quickly.

          Fair chance we would vote them in now if there was an election, although Elmo Musk is currently funding a even more far right party which might split the vote 🤣.

          The three years is just the timeframe before an election has to be held.

        Fuck this. You guys have been leading the global charge against trans rights for ages. At least own your shit.
