Chen Weihua charging his laser as we speak.
Seems that informational conflict arises, since, I suppose, no reasonable diplomat would say such word unconsciously.
EU is so far in their "always the same map" bubble that they completely lost the plot now, and Germany is the prime example of it. Reminder that they didn't said anything when US blown up their strategic pipeline and even now when the ostensibly accepted version is that Ukraine did it, they are STILL not saying anything but sending even more weapons and money.
And, if I remember correctly, US spied highest politicians, including A. Merkel? With no serious consequences? Germany has many analogies to Japan :)
The joke goes deeper. Comrade, I bet you know STASI. The big secret service of GDR. They knew that the NSA was spying whole germany. They wrote whole files about it. They knew everything. I bet the secret services of west-germany also knew, but they didn't care or couldn't say anything. Anyways. Let's skip some time... The best germany yet lost the cold war, the unification with capitalistic germany let Nazis rise again... Let me skip some more time. They founded the Stasi-Unterlagen-Archiv, a capitalistic german instititution, which only task was to tape and glue all scraps of paper the Stasi left and one former enemy of the GDR became it's leader. This leader was later known Bundespräsident Joachim Gauck, who is mostly known for his stupid comments, which he makes nearly every second day, till now - Anyways... This Joachim Gauck got his hands on the files, which the Stasi wrote about the NSA and spying all germany. What did he do? He didn't make it public, he just sent the files to the USA. End of story. There's not much left on the internet, but here you go: https://www.focus.de/politik/deutschland/das-geheimnis-der-umbra-akten-schon-honecker-wusste-von-den-us-agenten-in-der-brd_id_2982490.html
I am really concerned by the Germany. They are, as you imply, a puppet of U$, and nazi sentiments arises, as AfD has or recently had more than 20% :(
Europeans spend most of their time negotiating and talking among themselves and with their "allies" like the US. They behave as though the world outside of the West doesn't matter or even doesn't exist. They pat each other on the back, tell each other how smart they are, they come to agreements among themselves about how the world should be, announce it to the world and are surprised and shocked when the rest of the world is not impressed or interested and does not want to go along with their "genius ideas". In effect what they do is not diplomacy but a big circlejerk.
And they don't understand why this behavior is alienating the world and because they don't understand it they are getting more and more angry. They live in the ultimate self-absorbed bubble. At least the US due to the fact that it is an empire is forced to interact with and at least try and understand the rest of the world, if only to devise plans to better dominate it.
You underestimate the sheer stupidity and lack of diplomatic acumen of Anna-Lena Baerbock.
Truly what the fuck is going on in Germany. The government is all over the place constantly, with one officially saying one thing, while someone se saying something entirely different.
Remind me again, how long was Merkel in power?
it's different you see
Kindergarten diplomatic level
some incredible kindergarten takes from lemmy libs to go along with kindergarten level diplomacy from the west :) https://lemmy.ml/post/5167947
Their minds are not even a salad but a slop at this point.
I think this person may have heard of the term "dictatorship of the proletariat" and then fundamentally misunderstood it.
The part I'm curious to see is how far western collapse will have to progress before these people stop being smug.
They will just turn from smug fash into angry nazis.
that's almost certainly going to be the direction of travel
I think I lost roughly 20% of my brain cells reading that
