"UK developing new hybrid non lethal/lethal weapon that will use murder risk prediction score to select operating mode. This amazing invention will cut down on police related deaths, learn more tonight on BBC."
I swear the UK is as dystopian as the US and even worse in a lot of ways.
Why do you think they wanted Brexit? Now they can apply all their demented ideas to their country freely.
I, for one, haven't set foot there since Brexit officially concluded. Shame that I have friends there but, I hear it's becoming worse by the day anyways.
It literally always has been and that fact is why the US even exists.
Good point, didn't think about it like that haha
