President has claimed the US needs to acquire Greenland for national security purposes — a move that European allies see as a threat to the Arctic island’s sovereignty

    Let’s hope Trump will be under Greenland’s control instead. :P

    Everything trump ever said was nothing but sensationalist headline fodder. Did anything change in the last week?

      Wrong.

      Half the time it’s that and the other half it’s dementia.

      (Hopefully had you on the first half :) )

        He forbids his team of physicians to publish that diagnostic. See, I’m such a nice person that because of that, I’ll assume he’s perfectly healthy.

    he also said…

    • Iran would take 2 weeks

    • Gas prices would be cheaper

    • The economy would be better

    • he was a “stable genius”

    • Biden and Obama were the worst presidents in history

    • he’s not a pedophile

    And he’s 0-6 on all those.

      When he finally does die they’ll refuse to admit it for about three months and just sort of Weekend at Bernie’s him. Will probably try and pass off a bunch of unconvincing AI video as evidence of his aliveness.

        I dont know. I think noone would believe hes still alive if he doesnt show some presence for more than a day, given how much of an attention whore he is. Remember when he had COVID and had to show off driving around?

    Trump can’t even control his bowels, let alone Iran.

    Starting a war with NATO would end the USA right now.

      I’m reasonably confident that if trump actually gave the order it would probably result in a military coup. He’s not popular with the generals after he got them all together, pulling many of them from assignments overseas, just to insult them for no readily apparent reasons.

      Fuck yeah, let’s go! The system designed and controlled by literal Nazis after operation paperclip? Fucking end it yesterday!!

        Nazi Germany had already been defeated at the time of operation paper clip you twit. If they had that much global control why did they then let themselves lose the war.

        If you’re gonna come up with brainless conspiracy theories you need to make some sort of coherent sense.

        You should go with claiming that the Nazis invented a time machine to escape prosecution and traveled forward in time to the 21st century, it’s just a stupid a claim but I can’t actually disprove that one.

      We did the opposite, and just blew our military budget on American fighter jets instead (I wish I was kidding).

News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

(Current banner: La Mancha, Spain. Feel free to post submissions for banner images.)

Rules (2024-08-30)

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don’t overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don’t post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don’t troll nor incite hatred. Don’t look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia’s List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don’t question the statehood of Israel.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add “/s” when you’re being sarcastic (and don’t use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
  8. Don’t evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
  10. Always provide context with posts: Don’t post uncontextualized images or videos, and don’t start discussions without giving some context first.

(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Posts that link to the following sources will be removed

  • on any topic: Al Mayadeen, brusselssignal:eu, citjourno:com, europesays:com, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Fox, GB News, geo-trends:eu, news-pravda:com, OAN, RT, sociable:co, any AI slop sites (when in doubt please look for a credible imprint/about page), change:org (for privacy reasons), archive:is,ph,today (their JS DDoS websites)
  • on Middle-East topics: Al Jazeera
  • on Hungary: Euronews

Unless they’re the only sources, please also avoid The Sun, Daily Mail, any “thinktank” type organization, and non-Lemmy social media (incl. Substack). Don’t link to Twitter directly, instead use xcancel.com. For Reddit, use old:reddit:com

(Lists may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don’t show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the admin that applied the rule (check modlog first to find who was it.)
