she hacked you

EU leadership pretending that giving billion dollar contracts out to Peter Thiel or building datacenters for xAI to benefit from, contracts out to SpaceX, intelligence contracts to Palintr

And suggesting it has no consequences to media

When these people are openly and quietly interfering with EU elections and promoting ultra-right politics

Is it really just self-delusion that drives them right into a feedback loop where they allow their own control over their own systems be chipped away?

It's a question I ask of the UK regime too. I suspect they are only interested in the kickbacks and short term political benefits rather than any realistic long term consequences.

Judging based on the mentality of liberals in the US, the institutionalists who implement this stuff think they will be the "responsible adults" who will always be at the controls. It's a failure of imagination.
