Once these countries leave, they'll never go back. And then the rest of us get better alternatives to this enshitification model.
While I would love to see them never going back, here in Germany, all it takes is some corrupt politician taking a huge bribe from a lobbyist and swoosh, they are back to Microslop.
Edit: Knowing our little corrupt fuckers in charge in German politics, the bribe probably doesn't even have to be mediocre.
In Australia a lobbyist would get that for around 10k AUD from Labor and probably 6 from the Coalition.
Our system (in the end it's the same no matter where you are) is so fucked up :/ Kids need to learn empathy and selflessness as the most important school subject.
