i was watching a brit show called "caught on camera." the camera jockeys are following a group of darkies who are going around picking pockets and purses. the dude sent out a bolo to the cops and described the men as, get this, "eastern european."
can britain undo the mindfucking?

I'm going to assume the criminal scumbags were Gypsy and from Romania. That'll account for the reference to them being of Eastern European. The Brits all know the difference, but know that to distinguish between actual Romanians and their gypsies is to invite a knock on the door by the Thoughtpolice.

no. these were black dudes. not just swarthy.

Can they? Sure. I'd go as far to say as Britain may have a better chance of unfucking themselves than America does, really. The only thing they require is someone to arm them, then push South. America... We may have guns but the infection is everywhere, and anywhere south of Texas is a potential target.
Ideally, if America were to unfuck itself, it should take everything all the way down to the Panama canal, past it, and get right up against Columbia. then use Central America as a "bufffer zone" to prevent entry into the US. I'm talking right up against the border of South America, where the front widens.
This way, you can spend far less resources building an Über-wall™ that stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific that can be outfitted with some really good tech and sensors to prevent any trespassers into the North American continent. The only way to get there effectively would be by sea or air, and that would be extremely ineffective as ship production and antiaircraft unit production could easily go through the roof, knowing the resources just the US holds.

wouldn't that be great? but this could only be a possibility after a civil war is won and everyone is on the same page. it will be this future you describe or america is dead.
