This is why you can’t trust Europeans with their regulations, they are just as corrupt as the Americans. And I love regulation, but the politicians that end up calling the shots are as stupid, tainted and corrupt as our trumpian overlords.

We truly are ruled by crooks.

Europe Is Sanctioning Critics of Israel and Militarism

Sanctions were once sold as a gentler foreign policy tool for exerting pressure on dictatorships and terrorist organizations. Yet measures like banning individuals from having bank accounts or traveling are increasingly used to chill free speech in Europe.

@Migueldeicaza Jacobin is defending Russia Today propagandists along with people that were genuinely targeted for calling out Israel, not a great look.

@misk this particular case is over reporting on Palestine, which you can find if you bother to look into it.

Thank you and muted for wasting my time.

@Migueldeicaza I’m sure there were well meaning guys reporting real issues for Goebbels as well. It’s usually a good idea to distance yourself from Goebbels though.
