It's sadly still pretty clear that most Europeans and Brits are as geopolitically clueless, conforming, gullible, MSM-suckered and research-averse as they were/are vis-a-vis all conform & comply Big Issue geopolitical media narratives - from Covid all the way back to "Iraq's Got WMD".
The irony is that most of them suddenly flip 180 degrees from being arch-conformists to rabid, raving arch-sceptics on just one major issue: climate change and all things green - ie. anything that questions or threatens their junkie-like addiction to gasoline-powered vehicles.
