It’s good that people are exposing manipulation and the corporations behind it but it’s quite useless to do it on a heavily censored and already manipulated platform like reddit. I would also like to remember everyone that a bunch of people paid to work 8h a day could rig lemmy in a day, if you don’t stop upvoting memes and stupid subs evil corporations like palantir are going to feast on lemmy.
it’s already a surveillance state and both the red and blue party are complicit.

Closed source, centralized and not even free…
Somehow, they actually are a good source for political news.
This thread imply they are not a very good website for tech news and neither political.
but Ars Technica remains a very good website for tech news

The north african migrant crisis is a direct result of european countries among others fucking up africa and the middle east. Doubling the military budget has the potential to make thing even worst.
Doubling the already over the top european military budget isn’t going to fix any of the things in your first list.

If european countries are concerned with USA instead of doubling their military budget they can simply cut and close the thousands USA military facilities all over europe.
If you cannot discern which regime uses which rhetoric
Since the dawn of man no regime is good.
You are replying in a thread about 34% of Russian strategic Russian bombers being wiped by a “poor” ukraine drone attack.
Same power dynamics since the dawn of man.
Same power dynamics since the dawn of man, rulers use fear to seize power.
And what about US aggression towards parts of the EU like Greenland? You sure you want to decrease military spending against an increasingly facist super power right on your doorstep that has already openly stated to be very much interested in forcefully attaining your overseas territory? I don’t think so.
The US has more than a thousand military facilities all over europe, if they are your concern the best way to defend against them is indeed cuts.
Pacifism, unfortunately, is dead in this new age of multilaterlism and worldwide resurging authoritarianism.
Don’t say nonsense please, if you are concerned with authoritarianism you want to cut the military budget to 0 so that no authoritarian ruler can use it.
but not as expensive as Russia invading.
Given ukraine managed to wipe 34% of their strategic missile bombers with a drone operation it sounds like there’s room for cuts
The threats used as a leverage to increase the already high military budget of the european union countries are about a widespread invasion of europe and attack to nato.
For all the valve bootlickers here: while it is good that they are now supporting linux remember that if the shares still look favorable to windows it’s thanks to company like valve who for decades promoted proprietary software.
It’s really good news that a military state lost their war assets used to wage war (they should have never been built to begin with) but i’m gonna use this thread to highlight something else:
If 34% of russian strategic missile bombers got destroyed in a ukrainian drone operation, EU governments are simply lying when they say russia is going to invade europe and that we must stack more billions on the ones we already spend in war.
According to your history you are posting memes and shitposts yourself.
