I bought a sword in d2r for 25000fg the other day. for me it was a big deal, but in the grand scheme of things i am just one of many that had a "big deal" last week, which when we take a step back, is not a big deal. i trust the analogy is understood. one persons big deal is not the same as an others.
it is not world ending. its an event that occured in the past, today and will repeat itself in the future, i.e. tomorrow, somewhere, on the planet, or even as we speak. to say that it will have a profound impact on our lives or how the eu operates is a bit of a stretch. the memory of our species is pretty poor and history repeats itself. in this regard its not a big deal. its not new. I mean the EU response to Ukraine / Russia war is more a big deal then then this, as it is materially impacting most europeans (in their pockets, no pun intended).
It's def not world ending but I never said that. And you didn't take the sentence I finished with in consideration, it's def much more painful for this particular group.
Look at that Orban tweet, that's the kind of stuff they can expect going forward, and that's painful for this particular bunch.
