Trump is working on regime change in Europe — fact, not conspiracy theory

The US State Department published a memo urging Washington to back far-right parties in EU elections to build obedient “civilizational allies,” branding mainstream Europe as anti-democratic and making threats against governments that resist—effectively exporting Trump’s culture war to erode European sovereignty.

Trump is working on regime change in Europe — fact, not conspiracy theory

On 27 May, an official document, The Need for Civilizational Allies in Europe, calling for regime change in European countries was published, written by a senior adviser for the Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor in the US State Department, writes Caroline de Gruyter.

Pixelfed will never introduce ads. Ever.

Multiple acquisition offers this year? All declined. Another one last week? Also declined.

I built Pixelfed for the people, not shareholders.

That's why we're exploring Web Monetization - direct creator payments with zero privacy compromise.

I won't sell out now, or ever.

I love you too much, and am forever grateful for you helping me come out and become the dev I always dreamed of ❤️

It's not an ethical dilemma. If a HUMAN driver got into a situation where they had to choose between hitting and killing a granny or baby, we'd rightly jail them for many years for reckless/dangerous driving.

A self-driving vehicle should be incapable of operating in a manner equivalent to a reckless human driver.

If a self-driving vehicle is capable of getting into such a situation, the car manufacturer is responsible for a crime of homicide and should be punished.

Attached: 1 image It's concerning to me that this """ethical dilemma""" comes up so frequently regarding self-driving cars. Does self-driving mean *never slows or stops*? Are self-driving cars all designed after the bus in Speed?

You just know you're doing something right when #Meta 's data protection officer talks about your ‘power’ and how she wants the #EU to ban you from doing your work.🤡

the fact that duckduckgo has an AI thing at the top of the search results which DOESN’T answer in character as a duck, or even quack several times between each sentence, is, i think, a shocking betrayal and a demonstration of utmost cowardice
I get that the algorithm throttles certain words. But replacing “Nazi” with “Notzee” or “Notsee” or “N@zi” isn’t OK. That word must be remembered exactly as it is. Sanitizing it helps the next wave blend in. Say it. Spell it. Face it.
We're 2.5 years into this gold rush, and I still haven't seen any gold. I've seen people selling picks & shovels. I've seen "gold experts" selling maps to the gold. I've seen CEOs announce they're going "gold-first". I've seen people selling land where they claim there's gold. But no actual gold.

I'm heartened by seeing more people catch on to my political philosophy:

1. Don't take the black pill. People are Good, and we can fix this.
2. Don't virtue signal. Everybody is welcome in the tent.
3. The people who vote in exacerbation of the problem are confused, not evil. They are not only our allies, they are us.

All we need to do is recycle enough money throughout the economy, so that it doesn't pool at the top. Such a simple, easy fix, if we could stop bickering about other crap.

A reminder that France brought out the guillotines right about now.
