Brexit, all your base are belong to us.

If you know the meme referenced in the title, you get a cookie! The catch is, the cookie is full of pheromones that will turn you queer. On a more serious note, I want to give a message to Britain: “Get OUT!” I’m having doubts that it’s going to happen, so from a European Belgian citizen to a maybe soon to be ex-European, imperialistic, redcoats wearing, stuck on an island, limeys, here’s hoping it happens soon. In this spirit of getting rid of undesirables, I would like to tell you about the clusterfuck city of Brussels. Not only is it the capital of Belgium, perhaps the most humble country in Europe, but it is also a region separate from Flanders and Wallonia, the two main regions of dutch and french speaking Belgian citizens. So the city of Brussels has a mayor, but wait, there’s more! It is also a region part of 19 (yes nineteen!) municipalities, which makes Brussels as a region have 19 mayors. So anyone in the world with a functioning brain would say: “But bro, why does one city need 19 mayors?” My reply would be something like: “That’s an intelligent question brah, because certain privileged elite parasites enjoy getting their dicks sucked with taxpayers money and don’t want to change that.” The debate about this issue has opened up recently, and the message is clear. If you want shit to change in Brussels, you need to smash some stores and burn some cars before anyone wants to listen.

Before you accuse me of inciting riots etc. this is the message people with power send, when people with no powers raise this issue for decades and nothing happens. Some angry young people use some violence and property damage and poof, suddenly voices are heard! My personal opinion would be to just sell the whole Brussels region to the highest bidder, and let them run it like a business. I predict it will get worse before it changes for the better, and it feels like this is true for Brexit too. (Bruxxit?) Although Brexit is more like the nerd kid that threatens to murder all his classroom chums, if they don’t let him leave right now! Meanwhile the nerdy kid has been standing there screaming for hours and isn’t moving at all. Talk is cheap, action is money and all your base are belong to us.
