Then move troops there. The European NATO members already outspend Russia in terms of military investments. Russia can’t even take over Ukraine, a country that’s not even in NATO and hasn’t even had any modern military equipment for a very long time. Hell, they’re getting hand me downs from countries like Germany, equipment that’s decades old, isn’t state of the art, and needs repairs, and they’re still keeping Russia at bay. Now there’s articles about Russia depleting its own tank stocks and shit, not being able to sustain even a war with Ukraine, and we’re supposed to believe that Russia will somehow attack Germany or Poland (which is to be fair probably better armed than Germany).

So there’s only two options here: either the western press is lying about Russia depleting its stocks and they’re actually holding back instead of fully invading Ukraine (God knows why they fought in Ukraine for three years now then instead of just releasing their full “military might” from the get go). Or, the western press is fear mongering about Russia actually being able to invade NATO so the military industrial complex can make a quick buck off of our tax money.

My two cents: there’s no chance in hell Russia can invade any NATO country, they can barely function in Ukraine lmao. Just send troops to the baltic and you’re gonna be fine. No need for trillions of euros in new guns.

“Civilised” Europe. International law for thee but not for me. Anyway, hope his plane catches on fire.

Russia can’t even take over Ukraine, let alone half of NATO to even make it into Germany. I personally think this is just fearmongering on the side of our elected officials so the military industrial complex can make a few more bucks with money from the state.

There’s a high chance that the car is just shit… would be nice if it was an actual assassination attempt but honestly who knows.

What does it mean?

Come on guys, the US is in dire need of that money. How will they be able to throw billions at their military industrial complex if not for our donations?

Germans suffer from mass obedience and mass conformism more than any other country in western Europe I’ve been to. It’s a national disease

As a german citizen with an immigrant background from Eastern Europe, I can confirm this. It’s bad enough for a white looking, german passing eastern european. My friends from the Middle East or Africa have had a much, much worse experience than I ever will. Hell, I was walking down the street with my black friend once and some guys in their early twenties decided it’d be funny to scream the N word at us out of their car while also telling us to “go back where we came from”.

Or another interesting story, I was at McDonalds the day right after the Hamas attack on Israel happened. Apparently the cashier thought it’d be acceptable to tell the muslim woman (that was obviously just a student or a tourist coming from abroad cause she had a huge suitcase with her with those airline tags on it) in front of me that she should learn german or don’t come here, then said shit like “only thing you muslims know to do is behead people” and gestured with his hand at his neck the movement of cutting someone’s head off. I was the only one to intervene and tell him it’s not okay. All the pasty ass german boomers behind me just stayed in line and waited for their shitty burgers to arrive, literally no words of condemnation.

Arrest their asses and ship them off to the Hague.

You visiting all of them?

Deals, deals, deals. The EU needs that lithium. The EU also has many other business interests in Serbia. Vučić is a great business partner to the EU.

Such an inhumane country. Keeping people in shackles like cattle. Hell, not even cattle gets treated like that.

Go on, do a nazi salute and tell us how you’re definitely not a nazi.

Better to die childless than produce more slaves for the parasitical oligarch class.

I’m sorry but why would any country give up its nuclear arsenal today? Very serious question.

We all know that the international rules based order doesn’t give a crap about any of that. Ukraine gave away its nuclear arsenal in the 90s in exchange for security guarantees from Russia, the US, the UK, and so on. And we’ve all seen how that went. (See Budapest Memorandum)

Israel has had a nuclear arsenal for decades and no one seems to make such a big fuss about it.

Iraq got invaded by the US in an illegal war under false premises that they were building WMDs. Now we know that even the US government knew at the time that those claims were bullshit.

So again, why would any country capable of building nuclear weapons not do so? Give me a list of actual incentives.

There was a website/app listing all targeted companies. What was its name?

All languages other than German and English are banned at these protests in Berlin. It’s not only Arabic. Irish is also banned (see link below). Same goes for Hebrew (as per Hebrew speaking pro Palestine activists). And most likely any other language other than German or English would get instantly banned. This isn’t normal in a democracy. But sure, go find more excuses for the egregious attacks on our freedom of speech and assembly.

Watch germans scramble to take the side of cops, as usual. I’ve heard boots are a speciality this season.

“The restriction” being: speaking any language other than german or english at a protest.

I think this should be spelled out. That’s how nazi this is

Okay, there is stuff like LEFT, DEMOS (?), SENS, etc. but these hold zero seats anywhere. Not even in city councils. They’re practically parties you’ll only heard about if you spend time on Romanian Reddit or some other fringe groups online.

I think SENS was the only one to become a bit more visible than the rest but that’s it.

There’s also stuff like USR, which is a neoliberal party that slowly drifted to become more socially conservative.

And there’s REPER that has zero seats, is socially left-wing but financially liberal/right wing.
