The whole thing still boggles my mind, it was something like 52/48 on a non-binding vote, and everyone is just like, “Ok, I guess we’ve got to do it then,” even though it seemed to be the most obviously stupid decision in the world. The 2000s have just been filled with so many epic, unforced face-plants across countries and companies, it’s like we’re living in the Age of Idiocy. Either that or Russia had its tendrils everywhere and somehow convinced a great number of people to make the stupidest decisions ever, to which they took advantage of that… by doing their own epic face-plant.
