It's honestly embarassing watching all of these people - even politicians - being more emotionally invested in what's going on in the US than they are in what's going on directly around them.
That's why we've got Black Lives Matter marching around in London, in a country where the number of black people killed by cops in an average year is between ZERO and ONE.
I used to go to a variety of subreddits dedicated to specific non-US countries, and they would invariably mention US in political topics, even ones that had fuck all to do with the US. We live in the entire world's head rent-free.
Not just in London. Protests around the entire fucking country. Including in places where black people make up less than 1% of the local population. Stupid fucking culture war.
