It is not so different in the UK. It for me is not so much psyops as what happens when you venerate extreme capitalism in an almost religious way.

Here in the UK we have an elite group of people who have for years abused that system to secure an unfair advantage and Johnson and Trump are simply expressions and the natural end point of such an unbalanced extremism.

You do not have to be a Socialist, on the left or even a centrist to see that.

Money has for a long time been more important than not just human life but also has taken precedence over quality of life, morals, community, family, art, science etc.

The 10pm curfew here has pushed people from safer covid secure venues into homes and packed streets. It is counter productive. Science has nowt to do with it. Like Trump, Johnson is a bumbling fool, just making it up as he goes along drunk on power and an ego trip at all our expense.
