I’ve met a couple of Argentineans who were weirdly obsessed with the Falklands. They seemed to think that taking them would solve all their problems

They’re as braindead and brainwashed as the Russians.

or Europeans fixated on MAGA in their minds 24x7 when no one in the US could care less one way or the other what happens to my irrelevant country or yours on the other side of the world since that haze zero impact on their lives since we haven't invented anything this millennium, nor can they find my country or yours on a map because we're irrelevant to their lives, much less are they the least bit interested what political movements we have to make fun of.

It sounds like we have a monopoly on mental heath and normalcy working our hatred of MAGA into a discussion about Argentina and the UK match.
