britain, a country where being able to remember things that happened is considered cheating in a political discussion

This is considered cheating everywhere.

Watch what happens if you mention that Russia already invaded Ukraine in 2014, or that Ukraine voluntarily gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994 in exchange for security guarantees from Russia and the US. If you bring up either of these facts, it’s considered to be in bad taste and somehow is either a “conspiracy theory” or that you’ve drawn upon esoteric knowledge that no one could possibly know and that is now too antiquated anyway to be at all relevant.

It is very fucking odd.
