Emmanuel Macron has hit back at Donald Trump’s latest threats to impose tariffs on any country opposing his Greenland takeover, warning that “no amount of intimidation” will persuade European nations to change their course on Greenland.
He was echoed by the Swedish prime minister, Ulf Kristersson, who warned the EU would not be “blackmailed” by the US president, who on Saturday announced 10% tariffs on eight European countries from 1 February, with a further 25% tariff from 1 June.
In a joint statement, EU leaders said “tariffs would undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral”.
It is highly likely that the European parliament will halt ratification of last summer’s trade deal with the US after Manfred Weber, the head of the European People’s party, the largest voting bloc in the institute, said they would have to pause the legal rubber stamping process.
Why doesn’t Europe do psyops on Americans like Russia? Christ, as we’ve seen America is very easily manipulated.
What makes you think they don’t?
If they are it’s not working
I dunno. Until very recently Europe at large benefited quite a bit from America’s pro military attitude. I could see European psyops designed to stoke that particular flame.
Europe doesn’t have a unified intelligence services or anything similar, yet.
They’re planning to establish a joint cyber operations unit to retaliate against Russia.
Once the unit is established, they could and should use it against rogue fascist countries like the FSA (Fascist States of America)

This isn’t something to celebrate, and will only accelerate Europe’s slide into fascism.
Europe is already complicit with many of America’s worst criminal wars and genocides, and giving the governments more “intelligence” power will be used to secure their interests, not yours. More surveillance will never make you more free and secure.
The right has so many they would try to stop you, minimize you. Publicize it and make a big fuss.
You should though. But your own countries will fall under our leadership in the west, without a real popular reform you will fall as well to fake popular reform of a far right backed by the us, russia, billionaires.
The best kind of psyops is the kind nobody thinks is even happening. Trying to be subtle in today’s brash politics may not be the best plan though I guess, it takes too long.
We go straight at it. A thing i personally despise very much is this all secret behind the back stuff with misinformation and whatnot.
Personally i think we would do our enemies a favor if we punch their teeth in since the brain gets more oxygen that way and they may come to their senses.
Cringe keyboardwarrior i know but thats my opinion.
Coming from a country where im not even sure we have a secret service.(maybe its just that good 🧐)
If you’re not gonna do psyops, you have to do an even better counter-psyops. Otherwise you will be fucked in the ass without realising it, until you’re bleeding to death and it’s too late.
Just look at how beautifully Russian psyops worked on splitting up the Americunts and pitting them against each other.
Russian psyops have lesser effect in Europe because people in Europe are generally better educated and are also taught in schools about propaganda and fake news and how to recognise those.
what s psyops are we gonna do ? against the first or second amadement ?
