    This was hands down my favorite quote from the report 😂

    Like a scared child in a room full of strangers, Germany felt alone if Uncle Sam was not holding its hand.

    I mean, sure we let the US destroy critical infrastructure so that US gas can dominate our markets, we let the US force us to take suicidal sanctions on Russia and we let the US decline peace talks

    But have you considered that Putin is literally Voldemort and Hitler morphed into one? Slapstick Bikini!

      Don’t forget cutting ties with China, which started around the time Huawei successfully implemented 5G a whole year before Ericsson. Guess what happened next?

        Scholz recently welcomed Li Qiang (Chinese Premier) in high style, though afterward he had to say he lectured the Premier on all the correct talking points. It’s crazy to think his party is actually the most pro-China (a.k.a realistic and actually working slightly for the benefit of Germany) out of all three in charge. The rest seem to actively want to destroy all its manufacturing capabilities.

        And Macron is showing a definite urge to move away from complete vassaldom, being the only country in Europe that can, with an independent military, once it’s been humiliated enough by the US to remember a faint memory of De Gaulle.
