Who cares what the USA thinks anymore.

    Oh well. Moving on.

    Ol' Shitty Pants thinks he's in charge of everything.

    No one is bowing down to him, the administration is just grumbling but it's not going to change anything. As per usual with the US it's all projection, they are constantly accusing others of the things they themselves are doing.

    But since Iran doesn't listen to the US, Israel doesn't listen to the US, Russia doesn't listen to the US, and China doesn't listen to the US, I don't see why we would either.

    Well as per usual the rambling of president tiny hands are irrelevant. If social media companies want to do business in the UK, and presumably they do, then they have to obey by UK laws.

    What the leader of another country thinks about it is utterly immaterial.

    It means "please don't correct our propaganda".
