Dude, we’re not even successfully fending of enemy spy drones from airports and military bases. I mean I’m glad we’re making ammo and I’m glad you’re optimistic, but there is still a long road ahead of us.

I feel Germany and Austria are leading the momentum now. Scandinavian and Baltic countries are pushing as well, so is France. Hope EU will help the rest pick up pace too.

The ‘enemy’ the Americans face today is much more comparable to the ‘enemy’ the Europeans faced until the 19th century and before. The power of rich families and (large corporations) diminished in Europe in the 20th century, making the push for a better lifestyle a lot easier. Slaves and peasant weren’t complacent of themselves, they were made powerless by the system they were born in. If you look at history, the more powerful the US became on the world stage the more civil rights were established in less powerfull but equally developed nations. It’s no coincidence that since the second world war the Europeans increasingly got better healthcare, education, pensions etc while the American progression on civil liberties slowly came to a pause. It’s a complicated story, but complacency is a luxury only the well off can afford. A lot of those that are not fighting the system are busy getting by and trying to get to the end of the month.

I dont mind you having an opinion, but better share it in a more constructive manner next time. Because your way of communicating might be common online, it’s not very desirable. Not for me at least.

As a subscriber to this community, i know. If you were aware as well, that makes your comment even more unnecessary.

Dude, just he happy you didnt order one affordable coffee and enjoy this while it lasts.

I myself think this community either has to pick a better name or get different content because there is a serious mismatch, but stated in the sidebar this community is for sharing screenshots of microblog posts. That makes this is the perfect for this post, despite the name of the community. I can’t speak for the op, but i dont think theyre laughing about this

Chinese army in Venezuela will be worse for Trump for sure

Not favourite-[term of mine] but [favourite term]-of mine obv. But grammar matters and you’re right

It’s a stage that only tend to be there for people who never married for love in the first place.

Those people voted on the party because of the guy who started it (Pieter Omtzigt). He was very good at being a politician, but not very good at being a leader. Long story short, they didn’t deliver and failed to make an impact, despite their honest intentions. Pieter Omtzigt burned out within a year and the voters basically flocked back to the party they voted for in the election(s) before NSC was there.

Wow this might be the first time a red circle was actually necessary for me to get the joke

I know enough teens who get all their “news” from TikTok and YouTube without realizing that they are being influenced

I agree this is a problem and it would be good for online media to make a statement somewhere about their background.

a popular national newspaper in your country

Sure, i don’t want to disagree,

We have actual journalists and newspapers who cover this in depth and with journalistic experience, research and integrity

But there are YouTubers and online influencers who qualify as ‘actual journalist’. Sure this guy is pro-european and not unbiased, but to discard him as some random guy with a camera is really not fair.

If they want to have a coalition of 4 there is basically two flavours:

1. D66, CDA, VVD + GL-PvdA
2. D66, CDA, VVD + JA21

Option one is blocked by VVD because they consider GL-PvdA too left, mainly because of their policies on taxing the rich used to pay for measurements against climate change. If PvdA turns out to be willing to accept a more moderate apprach, this would lead to a sturdy majority.

D66 and CDA have a problem with JA21 because of what they see as immoral policies. They are strongly against migration and use the controversial term of remigration because they’d like to give money migrated people with dutch passports to leave the country/the eu and live somewhere else. They also want to continue drilling for gas, but that is probably less of an issue because they already said they want to do this after 2030 (long story). If JA21 accepts a more reasonable stance on migration they could become an acceptable partner but they would only have a small majority.

If these 2 options don’t work out they will have to look for a coalition with 5 parties which would be a first. Or they could have a minority cabinet, but since both D66 and CDA are big on there having to be a stable government i don’t think that will happen soon either.

I also believed in it at first, but having to tell my friends my new phone didn’t have WhatsApp was crazy and made me instantly regret not being more critical when buying it.
