“We Nazis…” shows a rare honesty at least…

No

Because “including Spain, France and Greece” is a rather lacking description for 30 European countries:

Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland

Look how many people engaged only works if you manage to supress the context. Which -given the fact that r/place war already reported about each prior year- is not going to happen.

So you are basically saying people looking for advertising are going for a platform full of fucks, insults and destructive comments/behavior struggling to moderate because they are too stupid to look at anything but numbers of how many people loggend in?

“five central European countries want the EU ban extended at least until the end of the year.”

(Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia)

And with that we finally reached the point where everyone is Central Europe if they only believe very hard in it…

Ignore it.

“We all know the reasons but I’m not allowed to say it” is a well known dogwhistle meaning “It’s the immigrants and the evil elites not only ignoring these very real problems but actively trying to replace us all with easier to manipulate stupid foreigners”. And of course they are right with the second part… saying that bullshit out loud will indeed earn them insults and being called right-wing nutjobs.

What’s going on in Europe is being flooded by propaganda and bulshit narratives 24/7, mostly via social media run by US companies.

That would have been the second step after truthfully reporting that the “illegal immigrantion” topic is just the usual right wing dog whistle for pretending legal immigrants are an issue as well as refugees, that are of course badly checked and just illegal immigrants, too.

“They don’t have the money to help poor Americans because they give all the money to Ukraine!”

From the director of “We need more tax cuts for the rich, so the trickle down effect can save America” comes the incredible sequel to the famous “USA can’t have proper social security because they have to spend a fortune on military to European freeloaders.”

Soon on some shady right wing propaganda stream in your area…

Reddit is looking for the extreme engagement of Place to have great stats to show investors and advertisers.

Do you think investors and advertisers are brain-deadly stupid? If they can see “great stats” on one hand while the media is full of reports about the ongoing protests of reddit users, they will be able to see the whole picture.

Especially as r/place was all over the media in past years anyway. Only this year it’s full of destructive behavior and trying to destroy everything with fuck-messages. Sure, that’s totally good advertising for reddit somehow and not scaring advertisers away because “but look at the amount of people who koined to hate us”…

What now? A terrorist attack inside Russia or an attack on the Crimean Bridge?

Inflation rates are sinking. That’s it. No need to also debunk your bullshit about why inflation is rising when it isn’t. Or do I need to google the US inflation rates for you?

“Fielding 100 divisions at its Cold War height, a small fraction of Warsaw Pact manpower, the organization could not be counted on to repel a Soviet invasion and even the continent’s nuclear weapons were under Washington’s control.”

Sure… writing an article in 2023 about raw man-power being the decisive metric of armies and believing that the US were the only ones with nukes in NATO. To then tell the typical US fairy tale of helpless Europe getting basically nothing for their already meager military budgets and painting NATO as an US tool to stengthen their rule of the Western world.

Tell me that you have no clue about anything beyond the US borders…

But… but… that insane movement away from destroying the planet we live on will destroy the fossil fuel industry and then soon we will all have to live in caves…

…said a fossil fuel lobbyist or their paid stooges in politics while ignoring all new technologies. Because only when they convince you that you need to fight for your right to keep burning fossil fuels and everything else will lead to a catastrophe can they continue to maximise the revenues from their technological dead end as long as possible.

PS: Also Axel Springer SE is now (since 2019) majority-owned by KKR, one of the big players in financials still heavily investing into fossil fuels… but that is surely just another coincidence.

inflation is rising due to the FED raising interest rates.

That’s probably the most none-sensical statement I read for quite some time.

The same BASF “fleeing Germany” is actually bulding a completely new giant complex, the first of its kind, for battery recycling on industrial scale to establish a whole recylcling value chain for batteries and be mostly independent from imported raw materials, in Schwarzheide, Germany…

“Deindustrialization” is a buzzword used by Axel Springer SE from the moment their beloved coal-burning conservatives were voted out. And they will push that narrative (alongside a few others) in their constant campaign against the Germany government (the Greens in particular) to spread fear until they get their retarded friends back into office or we finally learn to ignore their bullshit.

Gas prices went up two measly dollars compared to normal in 2022, and everyone flipped the fuck out.

Yeah, sure. They flipped out because the love their cars so much and don’t want to change anything. Oh, wait. No, they flipped out because companies and corrupt politicians made them completely dependent on cars so they will starve without them and kept them so poor that even increasing the cost of using the cars they dependent on just a bit again ends with starving.

And here you are babbling none-sense again about how it’s the stupid people buying products -as if they had a choice- and not the companies and politicians that are to blame.

Why would Turkish media tell them? They are controlled by Erdogan (where public tv reports about the election didn’t even mention his opponent by name… he was just “that other guy”).

The problem is that it’s always depending on the dose.

Fictional example: You can show an increased cancer risk in animal testing if amount x is consumed regularly. But then X is also the equivalent to 20% your body weight in sugar per day.

So now you don’t just suspect it’s carcinogenic, you know. But it’s still completely irrelevant when used as an ingredient in food obviously.

That’s basically like saying we need more studies on the toxicity of water as we know it is indeed toxic if you consume too much.

I remember discussing about 2 years ago how PiS and Fidesz are very obviously following the same playbook and Hungary’s approach of media control before gutting the courts seems to be the more successful strategy so far (PS: Obviously it’s also easier for them as their language is much more isolated).

And then I was shouted down by Poles telling me that this is all bullshit as media control will never happen in Poland without the population putting up massive resistence…
