      From first hand experience I know that french people are so keen to be against stuff that they’ll never be for an alternative. They just throw big tantrums at capitalism but they’re not ready to build socialism

        A nominally leftist party (probably actually socdems) won the French elections at one point, maybe in the 70s. They got to work raising taxes on capitalists and their means of production. It took about two years before they rolled it back cause the capitalists just said “oh alright, we’ll just leave and take our money with us then.”

          Yes, yes, do leave and go to China. That’s where the money is porky.

          (would they go to China in the 70s? Not sure where cheap manufacturing was being offshored too during the 70s)

      It shouldn’t be too hard since they still have them lying around!

    This might be harsh but I am gonna just start tuning out western/ kkkracker leaders.they are never really brave enough to be honest and are deceitful racist cowards.

    No offense to the white comrades here and everywhere

      the good thing is you only really need to hear the US state dept releases to figure out the empire’s front-facing public stances and persona, because all their euro vassals will fall in line anyway — just with varying degrees of eagerness and different forms of pretense that are all irrelevant to staying informed

        100% correct. There is no such thing as Europe. If this makes Europeans angry then grow a spine and change it. Otherwise, don’t get mad at the truth.
