I know that eminent computer scientists wrote to I think Harris a couple of years back voicing their concerns over the security of voting machines.
I think the Democrats are as done as a credible political force as the Republicans are.
America you have switched sides. Expect a European pivot towards China, provided China maintains some degree of pragmatic neutrality.
Foolish bully.
If you accept his shit he will try and get away with more.
The people most at risk from this moron are the American people themselves. They appear to be accepting most of it. They didn’t lock him up, instead they voted him into power.
(Sorry Americans, I don’t want to be inflammatory for the sake of it. I do like those of you I have known irl.)
we the poor are not a fucking bank for these lazy bastards that just keep taking all our shit for their own personal financial gain
Capitalism is a trickle-up system, so yes, that is exactly what you are.
What was Trump’s record with negotiating peace last time?
I recall him capitulating in Afghanistan. Was he successful anywhere else? He appears to like to rant and rave, and wants to throw his weight around, but he is clearly an exploitable, weak leader.
Here are the four points the bbc is reporting, which are completely different to yours. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cn5220x56pqt
To keep military aid flowing into Ukraine while the war is ongoing, and increase economic pressure on Russia
Any lasting peace must ensure Ukraine’s sovereignty and security, and Ukraine must be at the table for any peace talks
In the event of a peace deal, European leaders will aim to deter any future invasion by Russia into Ukraine
There would be a “coalition of the willing” to defend Ukraine and guarantee peace in the country
lol I was thinking of England. Admittedly it was a while back, but they all count.
Yeah because the Danes never conquered and enslaved anybody lol.
Yeah I said in another post that the Americans I have known irl have been great. I love America’s contribution to stuff like music and literature, and the arts generally. And I take your point it is a minority.
But this oligarchy has taken a while to build but it wasn’t stopped. And I do think this is a watershed moment for the US and Europe, BRICS and the dollar. I think we are entering a global economy that reflects the multi-polar world we actually have.
As a Brit, whose economy is 50 - 100 years past being the global reserve currency, I think the people most likely to suffer over the long term are Americans, after everyone suffers the coming short-term instability.
This total breakdown in cooperation happening just as we roll straight past climate change’s last chance saloon (to butcher a couple of metaphors) is an even bigger disaster. Some of us ‘doomers’ are being proven right. I’d rather not be.
