Remember when Eli Lily lost billions because an account with a blue check mark pretending to be them said they were giving insulin away for free?
Hands down the best thing to come out of elon fucking up shitter
Distinctly!
System is working as intended. Finally a government is not only calling it out but actually has a law to force the issue.
While the EU definitely does have its problems and nothing is perfect, I think that for the most part it’s really been a force for good in this world, although things haven’t been looking too good recently (not just the extreme right winning in the Parliament elections, but the shit eg France is doing to migrant boats etc etc). Also it’s kept the Germans, French and the Brits from killing each other and/or the rest of us which has been terrific.
Let’s see how long it’ll survive what with the current nationalist resurgence and all. Living in the EU now sort of feels like I’d better enjoy things while they last
The extreme right gained some seats, but they are very far from winning an election. They actually underperformed expectations and are actively losing ground eg. in France or the NL. Even Orbán’s regime seems to have found a challenger.
The fight is not over yet, but this election has been very far from a far right win.
Oh yeah it wasn’t an absolute win, but they did gain a lot more seats and in general even extremist right wing parties are now much more mainstream – look at how eg. “moderate” conservatives are lining up to kiss Meloni’s ring and/or ass, and she’s a literal fucking neofascist from a party that’s descended from the original Fascist Party. And then there’s the clusterfuck we have here in Finland…
All’s not lost, but it ain’t going that great either.
Let’s hope - and try to achieve - that this is a shock to action, a wake-up call for “a-political” centrists (actual centrists, not the right-wing sock puppets pretending to be) and those left-of-centre that didn’t take matters too seriously up until now. The fight is on, but it’s far from lost.
