10/10 If Europe is serious about strategic autonomy, social media must be part of the plan.

This is strategic. This is existential. It is urgent. We are running out of time.

Either we act now or stay pawns in games between Trump, Putin, and Xi

6/10 We cannot let our enemies or their allies control what Europeans see online.

This is far too important. And we barely talk about it.

It may be the most underrated issue of this decade

1/10 Underrated but urgent:

Europe needs its own social media platforms and better regulation of existing ones.

This is not just a tech issue. It is strategic and existential.

We cannot talk about strategic autonomy without including social media

Good morning, friends! Trying to do it all perfectly is a recipe for burnout. Take it one step at a time, do your best and give yourself grace. Self-care isn’t optional— it’s essential!

Mike and his GOP co-conspirators have worked relentlessly for enemies who hope to destroy every aspect of personal liberty, dignity and fairness that this country has ever held dear; if we deserve the kind of nation we want, then we’ll guarantee that history remembers them all as “enemy combatants.”

We don’t “hate” ourselves. What we dislike is what GOP hypocrite
a$$holes are working to make us to look like.

Let’s vote every single Republican out of office; and, when they try to cheat & tell us they “won” again, hit them back with everything at our disposal.

Trump never misses an opportunity to betray freedom

Donald Trump urged Volodymyr Zelenskyy to accept Russia’s terms for ending its war in a volatile White House meeting on Friday, warning that Vladimir Putin had said he would “destroy” Ukraine if it did not agree.

The meeting between the US and Ukrainian presidents descended many times into a “shouting match”, with Trump “cursing all the time”, people familiar with the matter said.

They added that the US president tossed aside maps of the frontline in Ukraine, insisted Zelenskyy surrender the entire Donbas region to Putin, and repeatedly echoed talking points the Russian leader had made in their call a day earlier.

BINGO! A WINNER, and this has been on-goin for well over a decade - a la Russian paid YouTube "influencers", and it's why Putin's oligarchs bought large shares of Facebook, twitter and others SM apps many years ago; not to mention their thousands of Russian trolls posing as Americans for many years.
