We are taking him seriously, that’s why we’re improving our defences and strengthening our resolve to defend ourselves from military aggression.

Would Europe and her allies “win” a war with the USA? Difficult to say, depends what the win conditions are. Maybe not.

But she’s got enough strength to make it a many years long affair, ending in nukes if up against the wall. Europe may not win, but it’ll be a pyrrhic victory for the invaders.

Hopefully that knowledge will persuade the USA not to wage war against us. The best outcome is peace and international cooperation through mutual trust and a strong moral center.

We can only hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

Thank you for (poorly?) censoring the word “died”, I was scared that I might see a reference to mortality online today. Phew, dodged a bullet! Aah!

In what way does that make his statements here invalid? And, if it’s not your intention to throw doubt upon this view of the growing conflict between ourselves and the USA, why bring it up?

People are not one dimensional, it’s possible for them to both want things we disagree with, and still be right and aligned with us on other things.

The USA may be weak in their dedication to alliances and giving their now untrustworthy word to provide mutual defence, but we in Europe are not.

When a NATO nation is attacked and calls for aid, we will answer, as we have in the past when such threats and tyranny arose.

That is the promise of civilisation. That’s what separates us from the barbarians that would seek to destroy or enslave us all to build more power for themselves.

An attack on one of us is an attack on us all.

Regardless of the outcome for us Europeans, good or bad, the USA invading a NATO nation will mean war. Hopefully a phoney war that’s resolved quickly, but regardless, war. Period.

The question is, are they willing to burn every single alliance and friendship they have, and start a literal third world war, just to annex Greenland?

And for what reason? If they wanted more military presence there (they already have some, don’t forget) they could just ask, Denmark is their friend and ally (not that the USA remembers this or cares about alliances any more), and would be open to discussing the details and sorting things out.

It seems like the actions of a deranged madman, not the calculated moves of an intelligent, purposeful world power.

It’s 2026 jokes are banned now, we are all very serious.

Please remember to capitalise your sentences and use full stops, thank you and have a beige day.

Damn, who knew the Russian Federation’s budget for education and healthcare was so high!

I suppose they can make at least one of those smaller now :-/

The trick is to imagine a box in your mind, and placing all the bad feelings in the box. It’s such a weight off when they go back in the box!

Then you imagine shoving the box deep into the back of your mind where you won’t accidentally open it.

That’s my pro tip anyway, it’s what keeps me sane.

Wouldn’t it be batein?

It’s important we get this right

America has been trying to get us to legalise their shitty chicken for years, fuck right off. We produce our own locally to a much higher standard.

I’ll buy your Good & Plenty though, my gawd that tastes goooood

Ahh yes I see what you mean, you put it well. Starmer’s government isn’t hated (at least not significantly), but very few people like them - even the Tories generally had a lot of supporters during their various tenures.

I wonder if the author will realise they could do with revising that somewhat misleading/hyberbolic statement, but at least I now have a better handle on what they mean. Cheers!

Now, if only I could get a physical subscription to the Morning Star here in South Manchester, none of the newsagents stock it, and delivery from their website is too pricey :-(

I agree with most of these points, but this one stood out as nonsense:

Keir Starmer’s government is now probably the most hated in living memory.

Besides the fact that the likes of Thatcher’s government is still very much within living memory, even if we just look at just the recent past 20 years… The current Labour government are more hated than our recent Tory government, that we had for years and became so reviled that there was talk it may collapse for good? …Really?

I don’t buy that at all. Sure, there are plenty of things to be mad at Starmer and the current lot about, I agree, but I see far less hatred for them than I did the likes of Cameron, Theresa May, and Boris Johnson, and their ilk. Faaaaar less.

Anyway, great read besides that bizarrely inaccurate statement, thanks for sharing :-)

Actually that guy is all of Lemmy, the rest of us are a hive mind. Blorp blurrp

How did this chap wear that top and not realise that it was the slogan of a really scummy racist? I’m not even from that country and I know Hogan was a tosser.

Does he have zero PR team to point these things out? Is he off his rocker?

Reading the title takes too long! I conduct a post vibes séance and respond based off that, namaste

Hey, did you use a secure encrypted connection to make that treasonous remark? I’ve got 999 on speed dial, I’m on to you, you encryption terrorist!
