People were okay with them having a Gay Pride Day years ago and celebrating homosexuality in an environment largely dominated by children, and they're only now worth fucking because they dared fire American workers

Is there a Godwin's law for unnecessarily dragging an otherwise apolitical topic into the political arena?

I wouldn't call Britain, France, Norway (and others) as being a police state. But a police state also includes the scenario where citizens are micromanaged, are under the watchful and benevolent eye of the state apparatus AND they do not resist said micromanagement.

I don't know about France or Norway, but doesn't the UK, at least England, have exactly that what with the ever growing surveillance camera coverage?
