A Huge Orange Toddler has surrounded himself with little men who need constant affirmation by bullying others. As if talking down to others, shows the world how tough they are. Really?? They are pathetic.
nationalists/fascist
Yep, they will use anything any book, song, symbol, idea, technology, and appropriate it for their nefarious horrific (genocidal) ends.
Like probably many people know, the swastika was appropriated by Hitler from an ancient indo Euroasian symbol for lifeforce, happiness and sanctaty.
But yes , I agree, if that’s the point: no sane person would use that symbol or other associated ones anymore.
Because the meaning and the charge it now has. Same goes for songs and lyrics, especially in these trying sceptical times. We must remain watchful.
So no disrespect was intented, nor was it meant as glorification of fascism. I was maybe naively so, in the mindset of a United Europe atmosphere.
added: just realised that as geopolitics are changing dramatically, it does fuel a more national European sense of belonging.
This feeling triggers our Trauma with Fascism ofcourse, and invokes rational and logical fears of a fascist resurgence. Especially in the light of the extreme right. It is hard to find yourself in the position were you wish to protect and defend your way of life, culture, identity, borders, friends and family, whilst not fearing becoming a monster yourself.
We have come a long way since ww 2, and we need to defend and guard our hard earned Human Rights and equality based society, empathy, and democratic values & lifestyle, on all levels. So this goes for the individual, regional and European, and all other levels.
add>“Fortress Europe” is too tightly associated with fascism
Interesting, never crossed my mind I know of the phenomena. Hell, just 100 m from where I live, entire streets & houseblocks were leveled as part of the Atlantic Walle (#1) The area was later rebuild as a large street with parks.
When I first saw the video I was sceptical because militaire propaganda is often associated with fascism. The content maker has probably the right intention but it still needs streamlining. There is another vid in his chanel that suddenly mentions China as our partner of democracy?!. So there are some weird things.

Why don’t they just move ahead with the plan regardless of America?
It’s in the article. G7 is about consensus. Doesn’t mean other parties won’t have their own plans.
The G7 has been compromised.
Unfortunately, that’s probably true for the whole world order.
I want to hope that the new one will be better, but oftentimes history tends to disagree with that notion. Yet I’ll remain fighting for a better tomorrow.
sacrificing freedom for convenience
True.
The masses like convenience until it isn’t anymore. Nothing can be done, but pay the price and move forward at this point.
Also noteworthy, is that this " critical dependency " was strategically pushed as well ( part of the NATO deal so to speak). Although, many don’t want to actively speak up about it (lemmy post)
I mean apart from the logic of sanctions, those shadowfleet boats are “environmental disaster” ticking timebombs. They are not very safe or seaworthy.
Some of them have extreme strange huge anchors, which tend to drag 100 km across the oceanfloor and mysterously break critical communication cables in Europe and so. Others have dubious highend technical devices on board.
Nice detail is that somehow they end up being owned by a Hong Kong Ltd.
Yips, in Europe we probably need to decouple essential ( software) tech asap.
It’s soo fucked, that it’s funny in a hysterical way.
If I were to place a date for when USA started it’s downward slope I’d say around the end of the 90s. Thereafter the turningpoints were 9/11, covid 19, and finaly 2025.
Tnx for this update. Did a whole post about them and their dangerous influence.
