Jos Venäjä hyökkää, niin Tanskaan, Ruotsiin ja Norjaan voi luottaa enemmän kuin Yhdysvaltoihin. Meidän pitäisi seisoa Tanskan tukena jo oman etumme takia.

Yeah i got that card too in my starter pack... It's pretty lame...

This is what chaotic good looks like

Kalmar 2.0. We need a constitutional Nordic military union — yesterday.

The post reminded me of Sisko's monologue at the end of In the Pale Moonlight: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-Yy... As much as I love to live in a world of Picard the diplomat, the time of innocence is over and we need to do what needs to be done in order not to fall victims to fascism and imperialism.

Denmark is a NATO ally. Talking about annexing Greenland is insane. Every pundit, think tanker, “professional”, etc. who whitewashes it should never be close to power again.

Also a complaint usually levelled at women. Notice no complaint ever about the cost of a man's suit

Pahkavaaran lauma elää ihanteellisella reviirillä. Alueella on vahva hirvikanta, erittäin vähän asutusta, eivätkä sudet ole tulleet pihapiireihin. Jos sudet eivät saa olla tällaisella erämaisella alueella, niin missä sitten? www.kaleva.fi/susien-metsa...

Undrain the swamp! MFGA 2027!

It seems to have become a regular holiday feature in the Swedish newspaper SvD to publish long and dreamy articles about a Nordic union (they even got a name for it: Norden). Among the nice things we could have they list Jens Stoltenberg as a federal chancellor

On one hand this is per capita and not per distance travelled (...just like smoking cancer risk increases with each packet smoked, so you should smoke less), but more crucially, modern cars with their air bags and crumple zones are engineered to be really safe! /3

Amazing

Äärioikeisto on aina ollut hyvä hyödyntämään taloudellista ahdinkoa ja talous oikeisto on aina ollut hyvä luomaan sitä.

My first preference is a more peaceful world, my second is a better, more cohesive European Union, but it may be that the realistic goal for a coalition that safeguards #democracy, our freedoms and way of life might be the Kalmar Reunion.

Mitä tapahtui on luultavasti se että rikkaat ja vaikutusvaltaiset sai kyseenalaistamatta väittää omaa itsekästä vastuun pakoiluaan vastuun kantamisen odottamiseksi muilta niin pitkään, että siihen alettiin uskoa.

I've noticed the same thing here in Finland: that the right-wingers only *assume* they know about economics.

if u even want to know what Trump is even thinking... open.substack.com/pub/someunpl...

If the test of a theory is its predictive power, then Trump-Russia is the most robust theory in all contemporary political science.

I say again: strong defence is almost useless without a strong society. Defence is never stronger than its weakest link, and a society divided into have-lots and have-nots is ripe for one of the oldest tricks in the book: divide et impera. TAX. THE. RICH. bsky.app/profile/jmko...

I despise revolutions, I despise them with passion. They bring death & misery and rarely solve problems. What I despise even more is people like Louis XVI, Nicholas III, von Hindenburg, von Papen or Schumer, who think the ancien régime will last forever. They leave no other option than revolution.

We can adapt this poster to fit the circumstances.

This has gotten surprisingly little attention, as investors are typically blinded by his arrogance. Theranos was a charity compared to Starlink youtu.be/2vuMzGhc1cg?...

There is only one way to do this seriously and sustainably: the people have to pay in proportion to what they gain from the arrangement. The rich have the most to lose if Project Europe fails. (Although many desire it, thinking they'd float to the top like the scum they are.) So. Tax. The. Rich.

NO. NO. NO. Do you want performative security theater? Because that's how you get performative security theater. And waste billions for weapons you then abandon, once the societal contract that is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY for large societal projects like defence frays. LOOK AT FINLAND. TAX THE RICH.

Norway 🇳🇴 had the excellent judgement to execute that treasonous Nazi, Vidkun Quisling. The USA 🇺🇸 should have done similar over January 6th.

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.

youtu.be/PvJtwWyZcPM?... (notably 20:57) has a really powerful and timely ending speech by the host Spartacus Olsson:

I'd like to note that Muskrat called for Ukraine's surrender, even allegedly shut down Starlink to prevent drone attacks, supposedly because as philanthropist he's afraid of WW3 and nuclear armageddon. And now that nuclear non-proliferation is dead, silence. One might think he never really cared...
