  • So you don’t use any search engine at all i understand. For instance, are you confident that google is fully transparent and gives you only checked facts? No intentional skewing towards favouring websites that pay for a high ranking?

    Maybe the difference between me and you is that i always check the facts …for example where they come from. If the answer is given by a human or machine makes no difference for me. The machine though gives me the links where it derived the information from… not many humans do that.

    So you either crawl back in fear fuelled by a lack of understanding or you embrace new tools when they come and learn how to work with them, what can be trusted and not, what improvements can be made. 🤷🏼








  • I’m from Europe (Dutch). Unlike the US educational system, ours covers history and the various forms of governance in depth from an early age. The fact that you keep referring to a YouTube video as your main source is telling-not about the quality of the video, but about the state of civic and historical education in the US. In the Netherlands, we learn about political systems, history, and critical thinking as a standard part of our curriculum, so these topics aren’t new or exotic to us. Your reliance on a single video highlights a gap that, frankly, is seen as a weakness in the American system from a European perspective.



  • …what you call neoliberalism is nothing more than deepening inequality, empowered the corporate interests and weakened democratic accountability …in other words, empowering the neo-nobles. Your country is an oligarchy with a temporary king every 4 years, coated with a thin veneer of democratic rituals.

    It is obvious how meek the Americans are. Based on recents polls more than 40% still supports the antics of the current king and the other 60% doesn’t do anything significant to oppose the idiotic decrees. People are deported, mistreated, lose their jobs thrown into poverty total disrespect of their gender etc etc and even foreign travelers put into jail without any reason. Still… Mr. President is unchallenged despite all the lies of his office and even starts arresting judges (and threatening people that make polls).
