      Wut? Are you actually suggesting that the entire population of Denmark (aka, the whole country) is just

      politicians in the pocket of big corporations

      ???

        Well, I’m an American, and we’re collectively blamed for the fuckshit our government does, so absolutely yes.

        But also, if the Danish government passes a law that goes into effect, how does it matter how many or how few Danes wanted it?

          Well, you collectively elected Trump for president.

          Twice.

              Same way. But there’s a difference between proposing a VPN ban and nuking a hurricane.
