You think the US is going to invade Europe and enforce a techno-capitalist oligarchy on it?
- quotemstr 1y agoOf course not. I do think that the US might get bored of defending a continent that refuses to lift a finger to defend itself --- or put much effort into anything that isn't regulating, censoring, or fining someone, and then someone else will invade Europe and impose a techno-capitalist oligarchy or worse on it.
- DrScientist 1y agoThere is serious talk in the US now that democracy is a failed system and the country would be better run by a bunch of self-selected billionaires in perpetuity. The election choices are between some-one is clearly senile, or somebody who clearly has no substance and, well, Trump. Other recent candidates include sons of previous presidents, or wives of previous presidents. And you are worried about Europe. Europe is worried about Europe - but in the context of catching what the US has via dark money flowing through tech platforms driving politics.
