He's going to Threads??? They have finally launched the metaverse and no one has told me anything??? I don't see any other rational reason to do something like that.

The hypocrisy of Israel's actions being consistently covered up by its allies is going to cost us dearly in credibility and influence in the future, especially when compared to the demands made on other countries, like cutting ties with Russia.

Why would I want to put anything into Threads or Bluesky? They are just other centralized networks with a corporate owner wanting to financially exploit my contributions.

Be careful with those types of ideas "we have to tear down the system and anyone who tears it down is worth it" no, if Trump ruins everything, whoever comes after him is not going to fix it, at least not in the way you imagine. Believe me, in Europe we have seen those kinds of ideas before

Oh you try to exterminate an entire ethnic group and they refuse to die peacefully, what ignominy

I'm drinking my fourth beer of the afternoon as I write this. Does that count?

Well, for them, organizing clean and fair elections is not acceptable, not giving fascists due advantages is electoral interference

Create a state that cared for and protected the majority, things like insured retirement, paid vacations, universal health insurance, In Europe we have all that, in the USA it was thought that they were rich enough not to need it and it may have been like that for decades, but it seems that not anymore.

If the system takes care of you, you are not going to sign up to destroy it, If the system doesn't give you anything, you won't care if it is destroyed or you will even sign up to do it.

No, from Europe I tell you, we see you as less democratic than you used to and with many problems that can escalate and screw you up (we are not celebrating here either), but you are still far from being a failed state, there are still police more or less functional, you can still call the fire department if your house catches fire, there is still a clear institutional hierarchy, more authoritarian but clear.

Yes, the speed at which you are flushing democracy down the toilet, when, I don't know maybe 20 years ago, you were the example to follow in many aspects, it is surprising for everyone.

I am a European who has just woken up and started watching the news. I think it is a good time to look for alternatives to NATO

Who the hell uses the Spotify app?? If you use it from the browser, ublock eliminates advertising perfectly. Why would I want to use the app where I can't block it?

A few years ago Facebook made the same threats and they are still there, screwing up. They are still empty threats and we all know that they will not do it
