Tried to force communist euro posting on twitter into existence, now attempting to force communist euro posting on bluesky into existence Podcast about europe @cornerspaeti.operationglad.io sé/he/er 🍉
"very Israel type of post NGL" is the best comment I've seen to describe these. They do feel like the posts/articles that western outlets sourced from Israeli liberals after Oct 2023 (which is to say, despite the liberalism there's a real big 'uninterrogated nationalism' about the author)
Clearly unread and regifted with reviews from 2026s gallery of rogues
Absolutely fucked vibes in the "leave a book, take a book" neighborhood library
As I said on the podcast, these insecure posts that so desperately need to prove America's worth feel very "it's ending" to me
Feudalism in the Von der Leyen commission!? Nooooo! What does "von" even mean!?
Ignoring that heat deaths in the USA are higher than most European countries per capita (the only European countries that have higher death rates have high AC adoption)
most of the parts of Europe struggling with heat right now sit further north than most/all Canadian cities (USA overlaid at actual longitude)
The whole discussion is stupid but fuck it: aircon is used in the parts of Europe that have traditionally needed it (ie. Away from the Atlantic and North sea)
