Independence from the US (www.theguardian.com)

This year, like every other year, Americans will celebrate Independence Day with flag-waving, and parades, and fireworks. The political system the flag and the parades and fireworks are supposed to represent is in tatters, but everybody likes a party.

For Americans, the madness gripping their country is a catastrophe. For non-Americans, it is an accidental revolution. This Independence Day, the world is declaring its independence from the US.

So what. As a German having to live next to perfideous Austria that has been our everyday life for centuries. Wake up, sheeple! Stop the austrification of the western world.

Please do declare your independence.

It's best for every country to be as independent as they can.

Plus,we're tired of paying for your shit.

Europe has been a brothel for centuries. The folks that left from the 1500's to 1800's didn't want any more of the same old garbage.

Hell, ya'all had to start wars that dragged the US into Europe... twice.

You asked for the US to get involved in your shit show. Americans, by a majority, didn't want to get involved. The second time it took an unprovoked, direct attack on the US for us to get involved.

So please, do become independent. Enough young American men have died because ya'all can settle 1000 year old grievances.
