Ooops

Behind closed doors in the actual workings of the EU things are different.

But there is an universal law that you can always dress unpopular but neccessary EU decisions or compromises as “Germany made us do it” at home and can always get bonus points if you tell the story how you bravely fought Germany to push through a popular EU decision.

Basically the same propaganda for domestic a audience in slightly modified form that Orban has made an art form in Hungary.

Hey Manuela from paragraph two, you should talk to Manuela from paragraph one.

Pointing out that this idiocy only works with a massive amount of cognitive dissonance is nothing new…

and falsely imply that they are being

antisemitic

No, in the majority of cases this is not a false implication but a documented fact. And even if they are not antisemites themselves those people are always happy to stand side-by-side with antisemites if those amplify their messaging, but out of the completely wrong reasons.

That already happened a long time ago.

On one hand nazi is just a meaningless word for “I don’t agree with them” but on the other hand the actual risk are all those left-green fascist degenerates trying to destroy the country… Why would the fascists have called themselves national socialists if they weren’t left. *wink wink*

Germany actually has a stricter domestic law already than what the EU is doing here.

But reality of course never matters. As long as Europeans can tell themselves the fairy tale of how they successfully fought those bad Germans for every slightly positive achievement, they are happy. Even if it’s actually too little or meaningless or just virtue-signaling. Or several of those things combined…

Talking about ‘Gotland’ and a ‘maritime shadow war’ might provide some clues to what might happen to Russian ships trying to attack that island. *cough*

Just the the usual Russian posturing bullshit…

Not on an official state visit at least…

Nope, it needs governmental regulations.

Financing-wise renewable energy has long surpassed fossil fuels. It’s not capitalists in general blocking the change as they would make a lot of money. This is very specifically about a small amount of individuals making their money in fossil fuels and spending a lot on lobbying to slow the transition down as they try to squeeze as much out of their business model as possible before it runs against a wall they can already see (but try to hide from the consumer).

The same is true in other sectors, for example in traffic where totally insane bullshit gets pushed (hyper-loops, air taxis etc.) as magical alternatives to actually working public transport. That’s also not some business that will ever make money. It’s a diversion by people who want to keep making money in a very specific field (CE cars) before that whole sector also dies off. Also the scaling effect in EV production as well as improvements and development still have a massive potential with much money to be made by the people investing into a still developing and growing market. Unlike the dying market of combustion engines that competes on miniscule optimisations of the status quo still possible. Yet the very same companies knowing that combustion engines are dead and not even working on developing a next line but instead focusing on electric drives, still do marketing like the opposite would be true so they can sell that trash with no future perspective as long as possible.

There is quiet a lot to say against capitalism, but at the moment we don’t have a capitalism problem (at least not where climate action is involved) but one of corruption that helps a few people to keep failing businesses alive a bit longer at the expense of everyone including capitalists in the future businesses that will replace them.

Obviously the emissions are the controllable. Blaming this on El Niño […]

Nobody is actually blaming anything on El Niño. El Niño simply covered up how bad it was already for some time.
Which also means those emissions are indeed not controllable. Because they have happened years ago and we still can’t do time travel. That’s the whole actual point of talking about El Niño here.

Congratulations. You are part of the problem.

Actual statistics and basically every poll show that the vast majority of people agrees and wants to do much more to address climate change on a personal and government level. And just like you most of them are suffering from propaganda-induced brain rot and believe that they are totally alone with that opinion so it unfortunately has no sense to even try. So they don’t.

Do I condemn Hamas’ atrocities?

I condemn every single atrocity, whomever is the perpetrator or the victim […], at the same time, I celebrate anyone who risks their life to TEAR DOWN THE WALL.

[…]

Are Israelis not justified to fear that Hamas wants to exterminate them?

Of course they are! Jews have suffered a Holocaust that was preceded with pogroms and a deep-seated antisemitism permeating Europe and the Americas for centuries.

[…]

So, let’s be clear: If Jews were under attack, anywhere in the world, I would be the first to canvass for a Jewish Congress in which to register our solidarity.

(from the speech published later, when he was not allowed to talk there…)

So in short:

• I normaly condemn violence in general but I don’t condemn Hamas but cheer for them.
• The only antisemitism Israel should be afraid of comes from Europe and America.
• No Jew in the world was actually attacked… as I would have stood with them then.

What an impressive example of a voice of reason for Palestina… totally not an antisemitic, lying populist cheering for Hamas’ attacks while at the same time denying any Jew got attacked. What a f****ng 🤡.

Thank you for perfectly demonstrating my point. You are an idiot thinking this is a team sport, “your” side is right and everybody not sharing your exact opinion is wrong and the enemy.

And because everyone is the same on that “other side” I somehow become a zionist bombing civilians in your alternative world view, although I could impossibly qualify for that definition by any degree.

And also because everything on your side needs to be righteous you twist reality to fit your view. I explicitly asked how to effectively separate Palestinian civilians in Gaza from their de facto Hamas governmemnt. Yet somehow in your brain that question translated to the exact opposite of what I actually said: That somehow every civilan in Gaza is part of Hamas.

Seriously… how fucked up is your delusion that things you read instantly transform to mean something completely different, just so they fit the imaginary point you are trying to make?

So… Getting better while China doesn’t creates the effect of reducing emmissions by… let’s say 40%.

The effect of crying about China as an excuse to not do anything yourself however is 0!

Which on will you chose?

It’s also the leader in building up renewables instead while everyone else sits lazily on their ass crying “why should we do anything when China exists?”

How about we do better than China first and then cry about them, instead of using them as an excuse to fail even harder than them?

Correct. There are however a lot of solutions that a) don’t produce co2 and b) are more efficient and cheaper already, very much more so once they are properly scaled up.

So you could in fact throw money at the problem… And even those who refuse to follow the change will simply go bunkrupt over it because fossil fuels aren’t even economically viable in comparison.

Hamas plans a genocide of Jews on one hand -without limited success so far, but not for a lack of trying- and actively helps with worsening the situation in Gaza on the other because they can use deaths there for their propaganda. Israel isn’t shy about killing as many Palestinians as possible either, because not reacting to Hamas terror isn’t an option, but any reaction will produce a negative reaction and tons of propaganda anyway. So why not go all in?

So which side are you talking about? The one commiting genocide or the genocidal one? No, Palestinian civilians are sadly not a valid side you can chose as they are de facto governed by Hamas in Gaza… unless you have a plan to separate one from the other somehow. Please then go on and tell the plan to world leaders unsuccessfully looking for such a solution for many, many years now.

Or in short: Pretending there are easy sides, with one being right and one wrong, is not a solution but indeed part of the problem.

Also should they win it’s probably not the prison labor that will change but the constitution *sigh*

I always thought sociopaths need to learn how to fake it well to operate in society. But I guess that requirement goes out fo the window when you replace society with GOP.

He is accidently right. There should not be a narrative in the first place.

But people eat up Israel and Hamas propaganda like crazy.

And what gets lost is an actually nuanced discussion where people can criticise Israel’s actions without questioning if the country has a right to exist and defend itself in the frist place and being grouped with antisemites amplifying the same message but for the completely wrong reasons. And where people can criticise Hamas without instantly being in the same camp with those supporting genocidal actions against Palestinian civilians.

Thanks to social media this has instead devolved into a brain-dead team sport only build on narratives. With facts and common sense being lost and one side pushing narratives helping the other to do the same, when there is no actual right side, only degrees of wrong.

Have you forgotten what you wrote like 24 hours ago?

No, I remember how I quoted your fucking bullshit.

condemned by Israel, the USA, Germany, the UK etc. for being the wrong kind of Jew

It’s right there. In your own post for everyone to see. Why are you lying?
