    Alas. this is the standard playbook for the whole society at the moment. Just see how fanatic (usual religious) minorities try to take over the countries, Israel, US, Africa, middle east and alas now they’re getting more active in Europe as well with Poland an Hungary as biggest issue at the moment. (no clue how it is in South America)

        Somehow I’m not surprised with the mess the Trump period brought. (but it was already a mess before that)

        As long as there are groups that can get into power and think they know best and forces a lifestyle instead of being liberal and let the people decide by themselves, we’ll keep this mess.

          Well, I’m surprised by that reaction. I didn’t expect that someone agreed with me on the fact that Florida was part of South America, between Argentina and Chile.

              I know that.

              I just meant about my first reply to you. Because I was (and I am) a bit tired of people referring to the US as America, when America is the whole continent and not a country, and I saw you spoke about South America, I was just thinking “well, if this dude wonders about the situation in South America, and some people refers to America as a country, I’ll just put Florida as part of South America so the illogical logic reverses to them”.

                Well, technically the America’s are 2 continents, each on their own tectonic plate. (Or I remembered that wrong, school was a while ago ;) )

                The only people that refer to America as a country live in the USA and couldn’t locate it on the map when it was centered on it, even when their life would depend on it. Then again, there are loads of Dutch people that think The Netherlands is Holland (2 of the 12 provinces) or that leaving Amsterdam is traveling to another country.

                I get the feeling that Idiocracy turns less into a documentary and more into scifi with a positive view of the future.
