The fight for Europe is on – POLITICO

www.politico.eu The fight for Europe is on – POLITICO

Two quotes that made my hair stand on end:
Vance’s message couldn’t have been clearer: Our way, or we’ll join Putin in hybrid warfare to roil your domestic politics — something billionaire Elon Musk has already done by boosting the prospects of the far-right Alternative for Germany party.
Kuleba: "In Paris, he literally said, 'Don’t try to compete with us on AI. Embrace our companies, remove all the obstacles, and then everything will be fine.' … Then he came here, and after attacking Europe’s economic model, he attacked its political model."

With allies like that who needs enemies.

Fuck the US for electing this trash. Thoroughly!

We've finally lost the cold war.
- Who would have known that the USians would fall for russian-style fascism after the soviets fell for US-style crapitalism :/

Reminder that Politico is owned by Axel-Springer-Verlag, a very conservative, sensationalist, and manipulating German tabloid publisher. There biggest "newspaper" is the Bild-"Zeitung", which is on the same level as the Sun or the National Inquirer. You probably shouldn't read them, they propagate hate and culture war.
- German fox news basically

I feel like a Latin American in the mid-'50s, reasonably well off but about to be sold like a pig at a fair. If we don't take bold action in the next 30 years we're only going to go downhill.
