It isn’t just the Weather Outlook that Looks Dim in Brussels

On a continent where the constructed image of one person that can seem pitiably aggrieved makes a majority, this is what you end up with. Having heard rationalizations about the mainstay of the BBC’s presenters looking more like 5% of the population than reflecting the self-image of the other 95%, it should come as no surprise that at one side there are apologists, and at the other people acting out their typically overraught fascism. It’s a Catch-22 without the star studded cast, but with all the guilt-ridden or hateful angst sometimes found in junior high school.

That this living caricature isn’t enough to start rioting in the streets of Peshawar or Lille is a miracle.
