In their defense a headline with brexit ghosts will get you a lot more clicks than Switzerlands EU access could get you without them.

I know that's what they are saying, but that independence has seriously diminished and only continues to decrease.

In a case like this I think it is fair to look at how much of the money ends up outside of Europe (roughly). So a Volvo designed in Sweden and built in Slovakia is leaving more money in the EU than a BYD designed and built in China. But not as much as a Volkswagen or Fiat. Though with complex products it can be hard to know what comes from where and with big companies it can be hard to know where profits are spend (perhaps Volkswagen uses their profit to expand their production in China for example).

But I think aside from money earned it is also fair to look at what kind of things might result from that income. For example a product with a chip imported from China might be equal European as a product with a chip imported from Taiwan but since Taiwan is not committing genocide I much rather have them receive that money.

I'm not necessarily a fan of using words from nazi-germany to describe MAGA shit, because it allows the maga-fascists to say they're not as bad as the nazi-fascists (which I believe is true, for now). But if you're gonna do, I don't think this is how you should do it.

I don't have to explain that if you use a thing and put a new word for it, you get a new thing (for example, New York is different than York). But the thing is, you can't always know what connotations people have with the added word. A toy car and a super car are both cars, but you know one of those doesn't have an engine. The word toy downgrades how serious it is compared to just the word car alone. The opposite is true for summer camp and concentration camp, where concentration adds a different meaning to the word camp.

Because Auswitz is most of all known as a place where millions of people were killed and, putting a new word in front most of the time will make it actually sound less awful. Alligator Auswitz, at least to me, makes it sound like a less deadly place than 'normal' Auswitz.

Auswitz Alcatraz on the other hand sounds like a deadlier version of the 'normal' Alcatraz.

Edit: original comment here was a reply to a different comment so removed it here. But now I commented here, what made you doubt about it? I ask because I don't think there is AI yet that can output text that is this consistent.

Guess you never used image editing software if you think they do perfect kerning

Haha, again you post your glorious comment history?

Yes

No more room for original thought?

No

How about next time you show me how Putin fuels Britain’s migrant crisis.

That is what that post was about, go look it up.

And: maybe explain what the migrant crisis is as well.

Also easily found online.

This might get me a lot of downvotes, but when ai 'draws' text it generates each individual letter which makes them a bit wiggly and often not on a straight line. The fact these are all grammatically correct sentences all on perfectly straight lines give me the impression this isn't raw output. Could be that the image was made with text later added on top though, but even the most advanced ai generators aren't this consistent with text.

Don't forget it's not only about having the right skin colour, having the right political views also matters.

and just need to hate somebody

It's not always hate, sometimes there is no emotion at all and they just need a scapegoat.

5 days ago someone posted link to an article by united24media titled Russian Saboteurs Reportedly Torch German Military Trucks in Erfurt in Brazen Attack on NATO Soil. I thought it'd be nice to copy my comment on that post.

Yesterday someone posted a link to an article in The Sun, it's headline was Britain’s migrant crisis being fuelled by Putin’s Russia and other hostile states in secret plot to destabilise UK; I feel I might just as well copy and paste my comment to that post:

The amount of shit Russia pulls without getting any kind repercussion truly astonishes me.
