Are we heading into a future where our lives are controlled by a few American oligarchs? I.e. Thiel, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk?

Well, most subjects of the King here in Australia don't like change... also, we've got more important things to do, like going to the footy...

No, they came to grab the land which they claimed was vacant because they did not count aboriginals as human.
This denial continued into the 1950s and 1960s when survey teams reported the Maralinga nuclear test site as "clear" because Aboriginals in the area were not counted.

Musk's gesture, not a Nazi salute

Musk’s gesture wasn’t a Nazi salute. His savant-like brilliance is overshadowed by bullying, psychopathic traits, drug use, isolation, and unchecked power. He’d thrive under authoritarianism and abuse power without hesitation. A dangerous figure, morally bankrupt.

Did Adolf Hitler have a grandson?

🇩🇪 German FM Baerbock criticized her government's indecision on Ukraine aid, exposing cabinet divisions and political discord during a heated election campaign.

💬 "Germany as a whole isn’t currently seen as a driving force for peace policy in Europe, and honestly that pains me."

Russians dying in Syria isn’t the problem, Russians killing Syrians is. We should not express regret over Russia showering Assad’s regime with money, but over Russia showering the Syrian people with bombs. For generations they will curse the Russians who murdered so many.

Germany's Rheinmetall has reportedly delivered the first KF41 Lynx next-generation infantry fighting vehicle to Ukraine for operational testing.

This comes as Rheinmetall sets up multiple production lines in Ukraine.

Putin has officially apologized to Azerbaijan but still not officially taken responsibility for shooting down Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243. The Russian shadow fleet tanker Eagle S has been seized by Finland in response to cutting electric cables in the Baltic Sea.

🇺🇦 Good luck, Heroes! We believe in you 🔥

Imagine if someone had made this prediction in 2014:

In 2024, Russia and North Korea, backed by China and Iran, will be waging war on a European democracy, and NATO won’t stop them.

Mitten im Hochwasser kämpft Wagenknecht für mehr Verbrenner und fossiles Gas von Putin, und die AfD leugnet die Klimakrise gleich ganz.
Dazu fällt mir nur Brecht ein:

Nur die dümmsten Kälber wählen ihre Schlächter selber.

Jetzt ist es ganz klar: Wenn Sie wollen, dass Deutschland von internationalen Oligarchen regiert wird, dann wählen Sie AfD

I suggest that from now on, all ships going to or coming from Russia should be required to be controlled by Finnish pilots while in Finnish waters. Same for Estonian waters.

Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

"The German verb "totschweigen" means to stay silent on an unpleasant topic until it dies. For 2 years, it's been clear that all the goods going from the EU to places like Kyrgyzstan (black) never actually arrive in Bishkek (blue). This stuff goes to Russia. Brussels is silent..."
