Just as we depend so much on these undeniable elites, our country that managed to become the European Borough only by our political imposture, seems to push them away.

: ah, îmi place mai mult termenul ăsta; am vrut să dau și alte sinonime, dar m-am grăbit să postez răspunsul; totuși, "shenanings" trimite la fiecare act în parte, pe când "pișicherie", le consideră ca pe un tot
