I've lived in Australia since I was 6 and find it bizarre that I can vote in Polish elections (which I never would).

When I visited America for the first time in 1999 I was shocked how bad the food was. Like my best meals were a big mac and a bowl of corn flakes. Just 12 years it was a completely different world. Every cuisine imaginable and very high quality.

True, they certainly do have an outsized influence. TBH the main reason I follow him is because he has cultivated the most insane, unhinged, psychotic haters. It's like an old timey freak show.

My guess is that if you asked the 20+ million people on here if they've even heard of the guy it would be a single digit percentage.

I came here just to check it out and discovered that a couple of my favourite people who left Twitter are active here, so now I'll visit both regularly. That's never happened before.
