Wow - just.... wow...
And there are people here in Britain who will say they wouldn’t want to give their tourist money to Russia - because they don’t agree with the way the country is run... I imagine they wouldn’t think twice about handing that hard earned cash over to the richest most powerful country on the planet - that has poverty levels which are an absolute disgrace by ANY standard....
I guess when you produce all that TV and Film half the planet watches - you can be as depraved as you like.
And Steveo nails it! That's where we're heading, we're only around 20 years behind the US, we're actually worse already in some aspects. It was obvious to me as a kid and where I began developing my severe aversion to society and loathing of morons that kept voting for us to continue following that path.
A lot of people will die unnecessarily from this virus, simply because we live in a society full of ignorant self serving pricks, who lack any logical train of thought or responsibility, they're going to do whatever it is they want to do and everyone else can go fuck themselves, there are millions of twats like that in the UK who have been brought up on a media culture that somehow portrays acting in such a manner as clever. There are equally as many millions of thick bastards whose mind it would never have crossed to take obvious precautions to prevent the virus spreading
To coin a phrase of my old metalwork teacher "I'm sick to death of this I'm alright Jack attitude" and that attitude is exactly what has caused this virus to spread as it has
"If Everton were playing at the bottom of my garden, i'd close the curtains”
