      I was going to say the same, like, for fucks sake, who would care about this if it would happen in some other country.

        I guess every country has their set of weirdos from each end of the political spectrum, and it makes the local / national news, at least on a slow news day.

        But as someone from the other end of the world, I can honestly say I do not care that US Conservatives are no longer going to be eating “Frosted Flakes” (which sound like something no one beyond the age of 5 should eat anyways, and probably not any age actually).

          Yeah, this is something it happens really often, I try to report this kind of things but Usonians most of the time think this is world news material for some reason. There’s just so many stupid news that they think are “world news”.
