Putin is a useful ally for rich oligarchs who want to destroy the power of the American state. Musk and Thiel are not working for Putin, they just have similar interests.

Ja, ich habe auch in der BRD in den 80ern gelebt. Wir haben NDW gehört und Punk. Und das war in Braunschweig. Auch Bowie, Queen usw. „We built this city“ war damals das Beispiel von Sell out. Schlager sind doof, aber die sind halt Schlager, sie tun nicht so als ob sie rebellische Rockmusik sind.

I guess I am outdated because I couldn’t care less about the promo photos and bios. It’s supposed to be about the music, man. I also suspect this is not Tidal’s fault per se, probably the fault of the labels and promotional people catering to Spotify.

I listened to a German journalist based in New York explain US politics to a German audience last week. Very disappointing, seemed clear she had developed her opinions from just hanging out in the NYT media bubble.

You’re right. We all remember how Harris destroyed him and he ran away from ever debating again, but in his mind only the Biden debate mattered.

The Republican Party started out as an anti slavery, anti oligarch party („free soil, free silver and free men!“) backed mostly by New Englanders (or New England transplants to the Midwest). The entire party has now done a 180 degree turn in 180 years.

As the least Trumpiest region in the country, we deserve it. Well, maybe not New Hampshire…

Tom has been very good at analyzing those voters. Most of them just don’t take their responsibilities as voters very seriously. They want to be entertained and see their petty grievances treated as if they were of world importance. Trump provides that.

They aren’t toddlers. These are people who have recognized that capital and global business structures have massively hollowed out state sovereignty over the past 30 years, and they are stripping and stealing whatever they can. MAGA is a virus attacking a weakened immune system.

Nein, bin völlig bei dir. Frage mich einfach, wer sie sind. Sind sie normalerweise zufrieden mit dem Besuch? Was man in TikTok verkauft ist der Wirklichkeit leider nicht sehr ähnlich.

Ja, das Gedränge im ersten Bezirk war am Wochenende sogar schlimmer als im Sommer. Muss aber als Amerikaner sagen, niemals haben Freunde, Kollegen oder Verwandte von mir den Wunsch geäussert, Wiens Adventmärkte zu besuchen. Wer ist in deinen Gruppen, hauptsächlich Rentner aus Wisconsin?

Exactly. I actually think most people’s food pictures look incredibly unappetizing (there’s a reason advertisers spend millions on food photography) but I also find it easy enough to scroll on by. Attacking someone you don’t even know for posting food pics is a dick move.

In fairness Putin has also destroyed Russia in the process. Only China will emerge stronger. The rest of the world will basically be divided by mega billionaires and kleptocrats who will pay lip service to ideas like national sovereignty to keep the rubes quiet. Maybe Putin’s fine with that outcome

The EU and the US are no longer allies. The EU is now basically in an existential battle to survive as an independent actor, and that will require Russian resources. At the very least Ukraine and Belarus have to be brought firmly into the EU camp.

An alliance between ethnic nationalists and authoritarian kleptocrats is pretty much the core ideology Russia exports these days. Unfortunately he’s having a lot of success with it in Europe despite the embarrassing battlefield reversals.

Does more or less the same things as we do in northern New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine. Guess it depends what you mean by „Yankee“. Quebec obviously wins with poutine but on the other hand our baked beans are better.
