    America and the UK, together they show the world what not to do. Conservatism and oligarchs are poisons that kill civilizations.

      I really think we need a sublemmy dedicated to specifically tracking the high stakes competition between the US and UK to spectacularly faceplant in the stupidest possible fashion.

      It is a very close competition so far and there have been a lot of upsets in the sense that it has made us all upset that the world is burning.

        There was a time when I thought the 2016 Brexit referendum was going to be the dumbest political story of the year. Then the US said “hold my watery beer”.
