What's crazy to me is I don't even know who's in charge of England or any other country for that matter. But it seems the whole world pays attention when us idiots decide to elect another idiot to run the rest of us idiots. Says a lot about our country that the whole world pays attention to what dumbass thing we're about to do now LOL. In my head I feel that those from other countries see our country like a really bad car accident that people drive by, slow down a bit and say oh gosh I hope everybody's okay when in reality you know damn well none of us are okay.
Part of the issue is that Europe largely relies on US media - e.g. there isn't really a European or French/German/Polish/... equivalent of Reddit or Twitter (unless you count the national Lemmy and Mastodon servers, but those are pitifully small compared to Reddit).
