Since what, a week now I guess, this comm “Buy European” has been spamming posts on my All feed. A few are actual useful posts like lists of alternatives to US companies and services, but the majority I just ignore.
And now it is coming to this point? Like, really? This is infuriating, fuck Europe.
Not only that but most comments calling the post out are either barely upvoted or heavily downvoted, while it’s pretty clear that most people commenting genuinely thinks this is a good idea.
And the cherry on top are the comments upset at the “tankies”.
How the fuck can these crackers look at a post wanting Europe to become a superpower again knowing damn well the history of Europe, and also knowing how the far right is currently rising to power there yet again, then not only agree with it, but also just decide to antagonize the communists instead of the fascists rising to power right now?
I’m not one to go calling people fascists, but fuck if my is not going off the charts right now.
Sorry for venting out, this is the type of shit that makes my blood boil.
Yeah, probably hoping for some clandestine EU funding now that USAID is done paying them.
I still don’t quite understand why they shut down USAID, wasn’t it one of the most influential ways for the US to spread their propaganda?
The best explanation I saw which makes sense from the perspective of the US ruling class, is that they are very aware that they can’t sustain the empire the way they have over the past decades, and are scaling it back to consolidate what they’ve got. They aren’t all stupid/incompetent, they’re just finding ways to delay the inevitable for as long as possible.
