The shit doesn't fall far from the ass

Here in Croatia, people complain about HDZ and complain about foreign workers from India, Nepal and South east Asia but same people are voting for HDZ (or DP, but they are essentially same party) since 1991. Also that same HDZ had some scandals with corruption, you know nothing to worry about. Like they complain about them, but they keep voting for them or they keep voting for people who will enter coalition with HDZ making it the same shit either way. For that matter, I never voted for HDZ or anyone similar to them. Only time when people are united are during some big sports events like world cup in football or similar stuff.

The British are the Americans of Europe.

I learned it watching you, Dad!

It's deadass 7x more restrictive in England so far, they just fly under the radar.

That's not a coincidence.

Yeah, no... We can and do protest. The next massive nation-wide one is in two and a half weeks.

I'm German, but you have my axe in this regard. Cheese is love, cheese is life.

There are jimmies even the bourgeoisie isn't stupid enough to rustle

I like France because the people seem to be doing well most the time and the politicians seem to be doing poorly most the time. Quite refreshing.

Not really. France is having a deficit crisis, which led to the collapse of the general assembly five times, leading to five different prime ministers being appointed, and yet the current government still refuse to raise taxes on the rich if they want to cover the deficit. All this government ineptitude is pushing the far right closer and closer to the cusp of power.

On the one hand, these strikes have had a direct effect on the national debt, as the country wasn't able to increase pension age or cut benefits. On the other hand, it might lead to the government taxing the wealthy more and stopping the endless asset hoarding by the rich, which prices out everyone else. If France taxes the rich, they might be able to persuade the rest of the European nations to do the same. Then it might become effective for once.

so much cheese?

There's no minority we won't throw under the bus before we look at wealth inequality. Remember when we were blaming single mothers? That's before the great replacement theory of course.

I especially admire their ability to make wine made from grapes grown in horticulturally unsuitable regions palatable by making it fizzy.

It's also worth noting that it was only one of three posters made, the other two just weren't popular at all.

The wording of ‘Your Courage… will bring us victory’ was criticised. There was some evidence the combination of ‘your’ and ‘us’ ‘suggested to many people that they were being encouraged to work for someone else’, with the ‘your’ referring to the civilian, the ‘us’ to the Government.
[...]
‘Freedom is in Peril’ was also deemed ineffective, blamed on ‘the abstractness of the words, not one of which had any popular appeal’.[55] Even during the planning stages the criticism had been raised that ‘Freedom’ was rather an abstract concept and was ‘likely to be too academic and too alien to the British habit of thought’.

They need a constant supply of stinky cheese to maintain it.

No you may not, the last time the Germans tried to take there were two world wars and millions died

Sure: we'd protest the measures, but the protest was not approved.

Devolution: Can't enjoy a single unrelated thread without bringing up the USA.

Ragebrain is real, y'all.

For once I would like to browse my meme site without being insulted and attacked by people who live in countries a fraction of the size of mine pretending they know better
