This kind of thing is what you see in undeveloped poor countries, banana republics ^after the dictator backed by the US takes over.

You forgot that last part

It also takes up their time and resources

It's YOUR TIME AND RESOURCES! They do it on public employee time and with tax money. They are weaponizing the state against the people. There isn't an upside to this.

Just like how we view now the austrian guy's rejection from that art school we will regret questioning elon's Gamer cred. We shouldn't have done that.

Macron no more pushes France and EU towards the Trump Nazi intolerance narcissist path than Biden did.

Exactly, Macron or Starmer or Scholz is pushing Europe just as much towards far right as Biden did with his lack of populist economic policies.

Sorry brother but you aren't going to lib yourself out of this problem. It's going to have to be at least social democracy (not third way but actual strengthening of trade unions and taxing the rich) or fascism and war.

they won’t stand in his way if he treats workers and nature as his property.

Unfortunately it's not just him. The reason Elon supports right wing populism in europe is so that him and all the other US oligarchs can buy out all the gains european people made as a result of mass movements and the threat of the spread of communism. Public health services, public transport services, environmental protections, consumer protections, paid holidays, disability pay... Anything that is worth anything will be sold off to the US oligarchs for pennies on the dollar while the top guys in AfD, NF, FdI, Reform UK etc. get their cut. Any and all safeguards standing against the looting will be removed and if any single country tries to resist, they will be drowned under the weight of tariffs.

This is of course nothing new, US and European countries have done exactly this to countless countries on the global south throughout the 20th century. What's new is the crosshairs of the big dog is now turned on europe.

Yeah, I bet he tried to run back because he was too free.

Excel-lent

There are no other topics.

Brother they are committing genocide in your name, a semi-decent person would at least pretend to be concerned. Genocide of a people is not a price you pay to get what you want, whatever that might be.

because he's a complete freaking idiot.

The scary part is nobody's listening. I can scream at the top of my lungs the fact that vaccines are harmless but measles outbreaks are increasing. People out there hunting immigrants while the 1% pockets their surplus value.

People aren't thinking, they are just reacting on emotions.

Well the US have been busy inventing a back up for decades now.

Who else in the middle east has a sizable population that spans many countries which, in the case of independence, would conveniently destabilize the middle east yet wholely depend on the US for survival, as it would be completely surrounded by sworn enemies, therefore would have to act as a defacto US state in foreign affairs?

Anyway, we are halfway there now and the rest shouldn't take too long

Pelosi supports Walz.

Even former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) appears to be leaning in Walz’s favor. A source familiar with the California Democrat’s thinking told The Hill she “is always especially fond of former House colleagues” when asked about Harris’s running mate, a nod to Walz.

She has already done so much but I hope Nancy Pelosi can do us just one more solid and nudge Kamala to pick Walz as the VP. I would love nothing more than his profile being raised to become a pres. contender in the future, not to mention maybe his progressive policies being adopted by Kamala.

Police. The problem is the police.

Nah, this is definitely worse. As much as they try Iranians are never going to have anything that resembles western technology, they will definitely have to pay the price for that if/when they try anything. This kinda internal betrayal though, this reveals them as the clowns they are selling out one of their most important allies to their nemesis.

They gave him standing ovations bro, both sides, multiple times

Hey, I still hate him and all the libs like him

Sanctions are always a popular start
