That's the thing with ignorance. Everyone around is well aware, except for the ignoramus itself. And left unchecked it can quickly go from a nuisance to a real danger.
I mean, yeah. Any good dictatorship encourages people to tell on their 'fellow' neighbors. For either side.
If a MAGA tells on an anti-MAGA neighbor, they'll go for the latter.
If an anti-MAGA reports a MAGA, the regime also appreciates the self-snitching by the former.
"And then they came for me, but there was no one left to speak up for me".
Yup. Buying our own and fostering our economy and development is the best way to get ahead of the curve.
We often prioritized american stuff, especially on the defense and digital products front, and thanks to our support and mass adoption they managed to refine the quality and competitiveness of those products.
It's time to prioritize and further develop our own stuff, suited to our needs.
France and Germany, in joint collaboration, have developed a Google Docs alternative - and its awesome! (Netherlands are currently onboarded)
If any of the languages you know is spoken in more than one region (ex: European vs Brazilian Portuguese), what version of the language do you speak?
Do try. The more you try to split us apart the more we unite against common foes.
We Europeans might bicker a lot and not see eye to eye on some things, but our lands still bear the scars of mankind's worst moments. We know better and see right past the vain attempts at manipulation.
And yeah, we have some dumbass extreme-right parties in many countries (including mine) being heavily funded and/or encouraged by Russia and the US, just like we saw with Germany's AfD. But we're already taking measures against that sort of influence, thankfully.
Understandable. They do support Canada, but politics are usually a subtle game, and since the orangutan has less tact than caveman they do better avoiding to upset him with open and confrontational support.
Not like he's prone to notice such subtleties without someone pointing them out to him on a full powerpoint presentation anyway.
That's what happens when you give a toddler access to the nukes. Being tactful is a must, until unavoidable.
Yup. This is not just about who gets to lead Canada, it's also about who can protect it against foreign malicious interference. Now more than ever.
It's time for cohesion, both internally and with allies, not division. When the enemy is at your doorstep trying to get in, you forget petty disagreements (in comparison, at least) and stand together.
Inb4 Trump, the supposed "best ally and biggest contributor of Ukraine" throws a rage fit citing all sorts of dumb reasons we unsurprisingly will already have heard from Putin's mouth.
