To translate this from Airbus marketing to English: "Hey, Dassault. We are still pondering options to scrap FCAS and look for other partners, so you better give us some more shares of our common development and production."
And I say this as a German usually criticising the exact same bullshit tactics from Dassault...
Oh, no. The country with low quality control and technical inferior artillery in need of masses of ammunition to even hit something, is producing more shells.
Let's panic! Or just ignore this bullshit as it's non-news. I think I'll pick the second option.
When your government has taken on debt with the assumption that number keep go up, that’s a problem.
And again, the opposite is true. They have reduced debt constantly for decades, did not spend big sums on stimuli while covid (in fact the recent budgetary discussion was about the unused covid funds) and are still not spending anything on the economy. If they actually would take on debt to invest it into economy boosts like everyone araund them does right now, they would obviously have growth.
So they sat at ~+/-0 now and everyone loudly cries recession, doom and apocalypse because two quarters in a row had a (rounded down) -0.1% which technically qualifies.
Sure... so much common wisdom about Germany. Including their immidiate collaps any day now for the last 20+ years. Or the 5%+ economy loss should they not get Russian gas (after all those people who froze to death of course).
In reality those massive losses -coming out of covid, still having supply chain issues and with not even a fraction of the stimulus money other countries spend to counteract on top of no more gas- are now what? +/-0? And with some more obsolete techs slowly sourcing out parts for cost reasons while new technologies open up shop there at the same time.
The only actual risk for Germany (and a lot of other countries) is that people start to believe the bullshit, the outrage farming and doom scrolling trash and all the usual propaganda they are flodded with on a daily basis.
Talking about the need to understand how political decisions are made, to then never actually touch the subject, ignore the reality of massive lobbying for fossil fuels and project everything onto inequalities on the local level is... strange at best, more realistically straight out desinformation to divert from issues.
Tja, da will wohl wieder die böse Regime-hörige Justiz diesen wahrhaften Kämpfer für Deutschland einschüchtern...
Zeit für die gute alte Opferrolle
But those aren't affected usually. For them it's about stability because their certification processes are a lot of work and they won't risk any interruptions unless absolutely necessary. So they actually pay a lot of money for support beyond the normal EOL.
Die Kommentare sind echt das geilste... und die perfekte Darstellung der Tatsache, dass relevante Teile der Bevölkerung einfach verloren sind und nicht mehr willens oder in der Lage sind die Realität wahrzunehmen.
Die schauen sich ein gerade mal 18 Minuten langes Video an, scrollen runter, um zu kommentieren, aber haben in ihren Hirnwindundungen da schon alles verdreht und kommentieren dann stattdessen irgendwelche Märchen, die sie gerade gehört zu haben glauben.
"Dabei predigt die Bundesregierung Sparsamkeit und die Einhaltung der Schuldenbremse."
Danke, dass uns endlich jemand -und dann auch noch ausgerechnet der Focus- erklärt, wer in Wirklichkeit die Schuldenbremse eingeführt hat, aus ideologischen Gründen daran hängt und Investitionen verhindert. Schade, dass wir Idioten die seit Jahrzehnten immer wieder wählen.
Aber vielleicht kapieren es die Leute ja jetzt endlich und und unsere derzeitige Opposition kann uns nach der nächsten Wahl vor dem jahrzehnte anhaltenden Wahnsinn retten.
(Wer Sarkasmus findet, kann ich behalten. Aber vorsicht, manchnmal beißt er.)
No, wrong is simply neutral and can mean both.
Which doesn't mean you aren't right on principle: we should be more precise and call it the lie it is.
Oh, no! Why did no one tell Ukraine (or anyone else for that matter) that the war ended at least 4 months ago after the US stopped their support? Guess the Orban-🤡-show just forgot...
