    Sorry folks, best we can do is beat the war drums and spend your taxes on armaments. That’s better than ‘social services’, right?

    If hundreds of thousands mobilized in my apathy stricken ass country, the government would shit their pants.

      The Euro way of doing away with the protests is to either push the shit up anyway and wait till the people stop raging, because even if rage is serious they never ever even overthrow their government (like in Macaron France), or back up and try it again few months later untill people won’t gather interest enough to protest anymore because they aren’t goint to overthrow their government anyway (iirc ACTA needed like 3 or 4 tries before people stopped protesting it).
