Better than being owned by George Soros.

If only the US and EU had this to suppress the “Far Right”. Democracy would be protected.

The US must be scared of China to be banning everything Chinese. They still have a long way to go.

You mean like Israel has leaders that are wanted by the ICC, and the US supports, and funds their government? FYI, the ICC is the International Criminal Court. How is it that the US can fund and support a leader who is accused of war crimes by international institutions? Where are the sanctions against these leaders? Calling people with facts unhinged shows you have a condescending attitude. It is a mark of your character. You think you can win an argument by exuding superiority, and yelling louder. Facts show the true state of things. I don’t bother with such people.

I can’t connect them to anything I’ve heard off the top of my head.

Funny you should say that. They want you to hear what they want you to hear. At least not presented as front page news. Why does the US occupy Syria and have control of its oil fields? Because it is a weak country, and the US can do those things because it is a powerful country. Don’t say it is because of terrorism, because of the irony. This is just one example of a pattern.

Are you saying I am lying?

Joe Biden has turned out to be the most fascist president in recent memory. He even supports fascism abroad. When a president supports a country that blocks a certain denomination of religion, bans a whole language, and bans political parties, using Nazee propaganda as a recruitment marketing, while having no democracy. What can you say? Then he supports ethnic cleansing to make Lebensraum for another ethnic group. What a sick man this chap is and completely incompetent. Now he is banning things made by Chinese people, if that isn’t racist, I don’t know what is. The only thing he is exceptional at is getting others killed. Good riddance. One thing for sure, there will be no justice.

If you don’t like the products of Big Tech, don’t use it. Don’t like oil, don’t use it. The EU might as well ban Big Tech.

Explain to the forum how water generates power. This should be funny.

You are ignoring causation. The explanation by the West for Putin’s invasion is he decided in 2022 he decided to begin the campaign to conquer all of Europe and the explanation for the timing is that Donald Trump weakened NATO, but at the same time NATO unity is stronger than ever. These explanations are not convincing. Then we are expected to believe that the US never thumbs it nose in other countries’ business. The United States of America is the great destabilizer of the world; it is not China, or even Russia.

What is logical is that Putin is reacting to an EU and NATO threat to a historically and culturally intertwined region with Russia. What does the US want in Ukraine? You tell us.

Fossil fuels are the underpinning of industrial civilization. It was fossil fuels that made the industrial revolution possible, it wasn’t solar panels, and wind turbines, or heavy, giant batteries.

Russians didn’t cut off natural gas supplies, or refused to pay for the commodity. The EU sanctioned themselves. What’s next? Blame the bombing of NORD-stream pipeline 2 on the Russian invasion? Don’t even discuss legality. Ukraine was legally bound to neutrality by the treaty for their independence. Western news media won’t tell you that. Towing the line of “feel-good” propaganda are we? Take responsibility for once.

It doesn’t matter what size car Americans build, they simply can’t compete. Larger vehicles are a cultural preference and fits the American environment.

The US doesn’t control the supply chains. Biden subsidizes EVs as well. US labor is too expensive and the resale value of EVs are very poor. If there is a country that can make EVs cheap enough, it is China. The EU and US stand no chance. Even with safety standards and 27% tariffs, Chinese cars are still cheaper, and the quality is good. US currency is artificially too high. US traded in their manufacturing for financialization. This is a case where Joe Biden can’t beat the global market, with the rest of the world buying China. American EVs are a flop.

NATO sanctioned themselves. You don’t get to blame Russia for that.

I own a Samsung… So.
