    Didn’t you hear, They’re doing a strike on may 1.
    A whole complete day, the regime will crumble!!!
    The irony of this date and that normal countries have that day off (fully paid) anyway.
    Achieved by people who actually and literally fought for it, where strikes went on for weeks and months, a virtual war of attrition.
    We earned it, nothing was given.
    And I’m going to use that day to ridicule TF out of these losers.



  • That is accurate.
    People since forever have fallen for the rhetoric of politicians.
    If you separate the words from the actions and facts you get a different story.
    Even I, with my ample mistrust and scepticism almost fell for this ‘rift’ or whatever they call it between the US/EU.
    One of Trump’s unreasonable demands was for the EU to pay vastly more for ‘defense’.
    Which is basically supporting US merchants of death and only used in support of their imperialism when they need it.
    Before, everyone barely and grudgingly coughed up their 2%.
    And what happened then?
    Some arguing and theater about the US not going to ‘help’ us anymore and our leaders deciding we should have our own defense.
    The result is exactly what Trump wanted.
    Well played.


  • I think a lot of Europeans genuinely believe in human rights and a rules-based world order.

    Most people in the world have that view.

    But you are mistaking the people for our EU vassal sell-out leaders here:

    But they’re also cowards and want the USA to be world police

    Our population is vastly against most of the US wars.
    We know we’re going to pay for it, first literally and later when we get 100000’s of refugees they caused.

    Our ‘leaders’ go along because it keeps the system in place of getting the crumbs from the US loot.
    They don’t care about the people and consequences for them.
    If they refuse, as in Iran’s case, it is indeed out of cowardice and the negative consequences for themselves economically.

    Our economies are already in a huge crisis because of the sanctions on Russia, we suffer and the US profits from selling us expensive fracking gas.

    They can not take more problems by joining this war.
