The UK is a monarchy unlike the US... wait.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

Yeah, but unlike the US, the UK doesn't have a constitution. Oh, wait.

The "Uk DoEsN't HaVe A CoNsTiTuTiOn" thing is so hilarious somehow, really gives off American civil religion vibes.

Why is it so ridiculous to you?

The UK using a bunch of documents, some of which are hundreds of years old and largely invalidated plus a bunch of unwritten arrangements to run a country is imo not ideal to say the least.

American civil religion

Am I the only one who recognizes this as simply a definition of “culture”?

Well, not the only one considering that the USA is a thing, but that sort of near-religious treatment of eg a constitution is not normal at least from the perspective of dirty foreigner like me. Franky it's weird and fucking creepy
