Their schools were already orders of magnitude cheaper. Get ready for extreme brain drain!

Haven't European schools been cheaper since like the 80s tho?

I'm hoping to get into a pretty well regarded game dev school in Sweden that is $25k USD for the entire degree. Comparing it with anything similar in the US is mind boggling. Schools here are impossibly expensive

Man I just love being undesirable in every country due to my beliefs, lifestyle, or lack of a degree.

All of these things can change

Explain the "beliefs" so I can judge you.

Living somewhere else is quite tempting in a grass is greener way, but it feels like moving out of my house because of pests. What I'd really rather do is eradicate the pests and get my home back. Even if I move, how long until I have to suffer new pests? Meanwhile the more sane of the two completely out of touch parties that comprise my government are like my housemate, and they keep leaving food wrappers and shit all over the place and they refuse to call an exterminator because it would be "cruel". But these no-kill traps ain't doing shit. Figuratively speaking, of course.

Orange Diaper is burning my country’s goodwill to the ground and I’m so happy to see the rest of the world telling us to fuck off, and more importantly fucking with Americas wallet.

Consequences for bad behavior is the only way it ever gets corrected.

It's like someone wished for more European defense spending but to the monkey's paw

The US wants better European militaries in case we can't help or share, not because we want to flat out refuse to help or share

The US wants better European militaries in case we can’t help or share

Instructions unclear, got weapons to defend against the US instead...

Suddenly nobody wants an F-35 anymore.

Maybe if things go poorly Europe will have to come liberate you guys and spread some democracy.

They look like they’re being told to smile or a family member will be killed.

I've spoken to some Fins and it's being that close to another human being causing that.

/S but only slightly

They sound like my kind of people. Time to look into graduate school in Finland

There was a meme picture of a Finnish bus stop with people queueing leaving about 1-2m between each person. When it was still current, I asked some friends of mine about it and they said "yeah, we definitely like our personal space", especially out in the countryside.
