"Today, the dubious honour of being the dumbest country in the world goes to…Britain. It’s a nation that’s completely destroyed itself, and will probably never recover. Even America’s better off than Britain, and that’s saying something"

"Not so long ago, Britain was the envy of the world. It had the world’s best healthcare system...was part of the world’s most successful political union, the EU — and Brits had the right to live and work across Europe, something that many Americans would kill for"

"That was just…a decade or two ago. And now? Britain is a failing state.... It’s a nation that imploded into stupidity, ugliness, hate, brutality, ignorance, greed, racism"

"So what happened to Britain? Nationalism did — it’s selfishness, arrogance, triumphalism. It’s bigotry, prejudice, and racism, too. Britain stopped wanting to be part of the modern world, an equal, a partner, a friend. It wanted to rule the world again."

After the financial crisis in 2007, Britain elected a Tory government. They sold the population the foolish myth that they were broke.Never mind that the correct way to respond to a financial crisis is to stimulate the economy. Instead, Britain began a savage course of austerity"
"Before you know it, demagogues are blaming their woes on foreigners, immigrants, minorites “Britain for the British!” Nationalism happens by way of financial crisis become economic ruin, via the invisible fist of austerity"

"A new wave of demagogues peddled these incredible, insane, baffling lies. Farage to Johnson, Britain — the gentle, wise, intelligent, expansive one — was put to the torch. It became a nation afflicted by a fever dream of nationalism. An ugly, selfish, stupid, and violent one"

"So it chose Brexit, cheering and applauding. Wait, what was there to cheer for? Leaving your biggest trading partner? Without a backup plan? How were you going to feed and clothe and employ your nation? Did anyone think about this? Nope"

"Nationalism says: we’re better off on our own. We’re better than them. We should be competitors with everyone, not friends, but adversaries. We’re only in it for ourselves. Our only motivations are greed and self-interest. We are aggressive and cruel and hostile."

"Britain chose self-destruction, cheering all the way."

If you live in London, you might not know it, but you’re going to be getting American style healthcare bills soon. That’s because GP practices in London have been sold off to an American “health insurer.” That’s going to make Americans chuckle — because it’s crazy.

"Brits aren’t going to know what hit them when they get a bill for, say, $4000 for an X-ray. But of course that’s what’s coming...
Who’s dumb enough to choose American style healthcare — despite having had the best healthcare system in the world? Britain is."

"Then there are the consequences of Brexit. Recently, the head of the trucking association delivered damning statistics. Trucks were more than half empty, because where there used to be free trade, there was now red tape"

"See how all that makes America look smart? At least by comparison? Nobody, and I mean nobody, is dumber in the world today than Britain. Dumb enough to choose American style healthcare and media over the NHS and BBC."

"Painfully, tragically, stupid enough to scapegoat its’ best friend and largest trading partner (EU) for the mistakes its own (UK) government made... Plunging itself into economic ruin — unemployment, poverty, scarcity, shortage. That will last decades and generations"

"Supremacy — which is what nationalism is really about — led Britain to implosion. So fast and so complete that even it’s own former Prime Ministers are horrified, baffled, and stunned."

"Oh, and by the way the government still has a double digit lead. Nothings going to change anytime soon, maybe ever. The nationalism — its ugliness, hate, racism, selfishness, greed, toxicity that wrecked Britain is here to stay. Its people haven’t learned a thing"

"That should be a lesson to the world. See the sad, strange, stupid tale of the world’s dumbest country? It used to be one of the world’s best places to live. And it destroyed itself in just 20 years, so completely that it will never be remotely the same again"
