Dear EU, the answer to US capitalism going full fascist isn’t more EU capitalism.
@aral they're everywhere, horizontally as vertically
@aral but we can control it, we swear!
@aral Nobody should start doxxing lobbyists at all
We been spending so much time on the spectacular implosion taking place, we should definitely NOT set some time aside to identify the maggots who acted as the bag man to set this all up
@aral While I generally agree with your judgment, I wonder if the real risk is not just falling into capitalism, but rather into the trap of defending against fascism by adopting some of its authoritarian traits. The EU may be pursuing capitalist strategies to ensure sovereignty in defense (which may be pragmatically necessary), but the deeper concern is whether these moves are driven by a coherent democratic security strategy or by political and electoral pressures that could ultimately undermine democratic values.
@aral scaling up European military is gonna be important to defend against russia though
@aral @antoniopicornell But wait, are you sure?
