I’m already imagining the german greens supporting every single word prime minister ben gvir has to say

LET THE OIL PASS OR WE’LL SINK OUR ONLY AIRCRAFT CARRIER!!!

EU, after shutting down half its nuclear fleet, blocking gas from Russia, blocking green tech from china, being cut off from gulf oil, priced out of US LGN, hastily looking for ways to generate energy from drowning migrants.

didn’t france build one of these, and then the people in the neighboring village bought rocket launchers and threatened to blow it up. or is this a different technology?

I remember the problem was that instead of a meltdown these reactors turn into a bomb if the reaction gets out of control.

I guess I’ve become a lib :(

it just sucks that politicians won’t really notice. it’s gonna be felt by the people that live here. the biggest effect of the ukraine-war-created inflation, has been more homeless people on the streets.

for some reason the elites have the privilege that, whatever fuckup or morale deprivation they created or support, someone else always pays the price.

don’t forget to wash the _ out before you use it :)

must be russian trolls!!

For the car lobby it is; the worse the train performs, the more cars are sold.

It’s so frustrating that free highways are never questioned, but railroads are somehow expected to be profitable.

I’m rereading the thread with Joscha Bach, but it’s astounding that Matt Christmans strokes of genius is more coherent than whatever Jeff is capable of putting on paper.

Is he just that stupid or does it, at a certain level of power, not matter anymore what you say.

And why do all these “intellectuals” love having discussions with him, I can hardly imagine that’s it’s because of his insights.

(there is an obvious answer to this ofc)

Older polish people in the west of Poland often speak better German than English, but they will often refuse to unless you make clear your not German.

As someone living in the area, I would prefer if the French and German elites kissed and got married before the American security shield collapsed, just in case they start thinking reviving old traditions.

That is to say, out of purely materialistic reasons it is preferable that Europe is able to form its own unified pole in a multi-polar world rather than be the play piece of others in a massive divide-and-conquer game. (Even if that would be poetic justice)

Point 5 is directed at the anti-emigration right I think. If you want to stay the premier super power you need to be able to exploit the labor of emigrants, ergo you can’t have your ethnostate and eat it too. Although these ideas are perfectly compatible in an apartheid state, so maybe a good idea for his next book.

The arrow would look a lot different though if they didn’t exclude a certain section of the effective population.

Getting Immortan Joe to witness me.

Yeah but in China the government invests in science so it’s cheating and also authoritarian. They should only include papers that are the product of public private partnerships.

He basically took the Weimar constitution because it succeeded at its main goal of stopping the communists from ever taking power.

In the French podcasts I listen to they always use Wokisme, but maybe l’academie is more strict about it.

L’Academie Francaise is a big fan of calling stuff Weauque, especially if it concerns the G word.

Does anyone know how trustworthy/genuine they are. It would be nice to have true independent reporting on what is happening in Ukraine, but sometimes I have the feeling they are just partisans from the other side. Especially there support for trump kinda turns me off. I get it, Biden sucks, but Trump is not gonna make anything better. Plus I have the feeling one of them is online gambling without muting the sound effects, especially during the recent recordings. Still better than the NYT though.
