I find it a bit baffling they so badly wanted to avoid even hearing what's on the table. Saw so many people interviewed who simply said they didn't want to join, but that's not what this referendum was about

To me it's like knowing something odd is happening with your body but you refuse to consult and pretend nothing is happening. That level of stubbornness hardly ever yields good results.

EU is the sinking boat: no energy, no manufacturing, no AI, no freedom, no protection from Russia.

Russian source of carbohydrates is over. American source of free protection is over. EU is not a source of the modern cars anymore.

What a high quality comment. Meanwhile at the top of every worthwhile metric including freedom indices: Half of the EU + Switzerland, New Zealand, Australia, Canada.

Please give me the list of at least 3 worthwhile metrics where EU is not a corpse.
