    To be clelar for anyone just skimming the article… It’s UK Farmers.

    I guess they could have had more support if they didn’t Brexit…

      Do you think the UK sometimes sits up late at night with a bottle of whisky and stalks the EU on social media?

      I wish people would stop going on about Brexit. It was what the people wanted. Literally every single brown “”“person”“” has left the country and we don’t have any EU overlords shoving their rules down our throats. Every other aspect of our life bring worse and facing food shortages is a small price to pay

          I am being sarcastic. We have a brown person as our prime minister, after all

            There are people who actually believe what you had posted, so without additional cues that it’s intended as sarcasm (like starting with Hur Dur or ending with /s), it’s anyone’s guess what you actually meant. In person sarcasm works better because we can easily add physical cues, but on the internet it’s best made very obvious imo.

              To be honest this was very obvious at least at the end, when they recognise life is worse. If it wasn’t sarcasm they wouldn’t admit that.

              No they don’t. No racist person would ever say that “literally every single brown ““person”” has left the country”. If you’re not neutron star level dense, it’s pretty obviously sarcasm.
