We can be as ideologically similar, policy-wise, we’re an obedient dog with a masochism kink.

“Yes daddy Trump, we’ll take all your child killer gas guzzlers and destroy our urban planning for more car friendly cities. What’s that? Yes sure we’ll also take a 15% tariff, and we’ll do it with a smile”

Meta returning to their roots it seems

It has a lot to do with the article, because of our superiority complex and literally EU politicians saying “we don’t need China, China needs us more than we need them”.

Dealing with China would’ve been a good counterbalance against being screwed over by the US tariff wise.

However, now we have to open up our markets to American cars and ractopamine pork from the US (yes, the deal also includes deregulating EU food safety standards).

Our gloating is literally destroying our standards of life

The name is literally a generated Docker container name, anyways, I’m European.

What propaganda? That China is by all means, the world’s largest manufacturer, and pushing the envelope in terms of Military Industrial innovations, STEM graduates per capita, etc?

I go to China for work regularly, besides people looking to model France’s ability to get people to fall in love with its brands, no one there cares about the EU, because they see it as worthless and stuck.

Jewish exceptionalism is requiring that your hooligans be granted exceptions not normally granted to other hooligans who exhibit antisocial and rioting behaviour, lest you get labelled antisemitic.

Btw, Israeli police recently banned Maccabi fans from attending games in Tel Aviv specifically for disturbing public safety and rioting.

I hate Western European exceptionalism and smugness.

The EU has been a struggling empty shell of an economic project, with no vision, no progress.

EU politicians should 閉嘴 (shut up), be humble, and learn from China.

The asylum system in Europe is broken, and it’s being exploited by state actors to sow discord in the EU (Wagner actively supports migration paths from the Suhel and other areas it operates in to Tunisia, for example).

You can’t have a welfare state and an open door asylum policy.

I love how the UK today is basically: “give us more surveillance powers so we don’t do anything about it… unless you’re a dissident”
