Dual UK/US citizen here . . . living in the Scottish highlands. Hate to break it to you mate, but Brits do not think about this. Ever. 1/3 of the countries on Earth celebrate their independence day as being independent FROM England. The US just isn’t that special.
PS. I personally spend quite a bit of time working to add Scotland to that list!
I’m sure that England has been glad to be rid of us for quite some time. We haven’t been very good allies in my lifetime, let alone before that.
I’m also equally sure plenty of Americans today would rather be somewhere in the UK.
I wish Lemmy was independent of Americans.
I mean, Truth Social is just mastodon defederated from everyone else. You could stand up an instance of Lemmy, ban all the Americans and defederate from every instance that has Americans on it; no-one can stop you.
