    Europe is already falling. This was part of a coordinated effort. The right did stupid shit to erode the US, hostile foreign powers hijacked the Republican Party using Trump once they had weakened the US enough, and this destabilized the entire western world due to their reliance on the US.

    The republicans dumbly did exactly what their enemies wanted. And they still don’t even realize they are being used yet.

      Not saying Europe is in the best shape but you have a President threatening war to stay in power, accepting Qatari bribes, saying he wants to be treated like kim jon un, etc.

      It’s not even close.

        You can’t say anything negative about Israel. You can’t access porn without telling your government and the provider who you are first. They keep trying to kill encryption and will eventually succeed. They are moving on requiring identification to use a VPN now.

        Increased surveillance has literally never made people safer. It’s made them vulnerable.

          Most of these is just the UK. Yes there are some EU attempts to stifle free speech and anonymity online but those aren’t in place yet and people are fighting it. (Tell your MEPs to oppose Chat Control!) and yes, Germany is very zionist.

          But here in The Netherlands the protest against Israel and for Palestine (the red line protest) was one of the biggest in 20 years time. (100 000 to 150 000 protesters), I don’t have to hand over my passport to watch porn, I’m still free to use a VPN.
