I'm tired of this ol' propaganda trope. * We're leading the world in fusion research. https://www.pppl.gov/news/2025/wendelstein-7-x-sets-new-performance-records-fusion-research https://www.pppl.gov/news/2025/wendelstein-7-x-sets-new-perf... * Our satellites are giving us by far the best understanding of our universe, capturing one third of the visible sky in incredible detail - just check out this mission update video if you want your mind blown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXCBFlIpvfQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXCBFlIpvfQ * Not only that, the Copernicus mission is the world's leading source for open data geoobservation: https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/ https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/ * We've given the world mRNA vaccines to solve the Covid crisis and GLP-1 antagonists to solve the obesity crisis. * CERN and is figuring out questions about the fundamental nature of the universe, with the LHC being by far the largest particle accelerator in the world, an engineering precision feat that couldn't have been accomplished anywhere else. Pioneering, innovation and drive forward isn't just about the latest tech fad. It's about fundamental research on how our universe works. Everyone else is downstream of us.

Don't worry, we in the US are hot on your heels in the own-goal game ( https://www.space.com/space-exploration/nasa-is-sinking-its-flagship-science-center-during-the-government-shutdown-and-may-be-breaking-the-law-in-the-process https://www.space.com/space-exploration/nasa-is-sinking-its-... ). All you have to do is wait by the Trump River and wait for our body to come floating by.

I’m confused. Who is this “We”? Do you realize how behind in many respects most of Europe is? How it’s been parceled up and destroyed by the EU? Science projects led by a few countries doesn’t cut it. It’s not propaganda at all. The standards of living there are shit. But enjoy the particle collider, I guess?

  We is Europe. Like everywhere else, we are behind in some aspects and ahead in others. > The standards of living there are shit. Now you're just trolling. I've lived in both the US and in multiple EU countries. Let me tell you, the standard of living in the US does not hold a candle to the one in the EU.
