  • EU could tax Big Tech if Trump trade talks fail, says von der Leyen

    Jump

  • Uh, big tech should be taxed by default. We're only in this mess because they elected the cheeto...

  • Australia declines China's offer to 'join hands' on Trump tariffs

  • Huh, AUKUS was a backstab of a reliable ally to play pawn to the biggest aggressor in the entire region. How is that Australia defending itself?

  • Less concern about winning, more concern about being inclusive and having fun? Sign me up for that shit.

  • It's not something that needs to be solved. It's sports. Tax sports income at 90% above 1M a year and watch it stabilise.

  • China is wooing Europe with technology, investments - and a smile. But anyone who looks behind China's rhetoric will recognize the conditions: no criticism, no questions, no objections.

  • I like this. I'll give it deeper thought.

  • No clue, nor am I inclined to use time to find out.

    At the end of the day, it really doesn't matter. Success at sports is not only dedication, it's also luck in the genetic lottery, regardless of the sport.

    I believe I'm an outlier in this thought, I think that segregation between male and female sports make no sense.

  • ELI5 this for me, I'm not even on this sub but whatever.

    Everyone loves Messi, the dude takes a metric shit ton of forbidden drugs because he has a medical issue, wins a WC and competes because everyone recognises and accepts a medical condition is an acceptable reason to have exceptions.

    Then, enter trans athletes. They have a medical condition, they take drugs to remediate the fact they were born in the wrong body, they win because the karma for the immeasurable amount of suffering they endure is being good at a random sport. Everyone dislikes that and calls it cheating.

    I'm not an ally or anything. Being in the EU and seeing the fandom of Messi, can someone please explain to me why that cunt of a tax dodger gets an exception and Mary from down the street, who just won the district football competition, and wants to live her life in peace, is called a cheater.

    Just make it make sense, and while you're at it, explain why the fuck is this a discussion that permeates the airwaves almost weekly.

  • If this is the bar, Europe wouldn't even trade with itself. Our biggest trade partner is calling us Pathetic while threatening to invade us and helping the genocide of an entire group of people.

    We're royally fucked, we either downgrade our lifestyle (which would be good for the environment) or we have to keep making deals with the devil. China just happens to be the devil we know, vs the 3 faced US.

  • Europe has a 'real opportunity' to take in Americans fleeing Trump. Is it ready for a 'brain drain'?

    Jump

  • I have very little doubt it was state sponsored. There has been ample evidence there is an interest from the US to make the EU a vassal region again, regardless of who is president. Starting with spying on allies with the help of DK to AUKUS, to fast tracking a war in our region to stop our only de facto dependence on them, hydrocarbons, from being made redundant. The EU is leading the world in renewable energy, but we can't have that, because the only coercive lever after that is direct conflict. In fact, there's ample evidence Biden and Bojo chose to prolong the UA war with empty promises to Zelensky that are now being paid in blood. The purpose of that is obvious, when you ask qui bono. Putin didn't want NATO at his door, RU & the US didn't want UA in the EU, so here we are. Had UA entered the EU, the supply of hydrocarbons from RU and US would have been made redundant enough given UA has reserved estimated to be enough to support the EU energy transition to renewables independently.

  • The part of brexit is manifestly not true. Brexit is a US invention, the far right from the US banked the whole thing. Case in point, Steve Banon and Cambridge analytica. Allowing US companies to run our digital life is the biggest mistake of the european civilization, and now that civilization is at risk, threatened by a raging jingoistic maniac.

    Hopefully someone will have some common sense and this will be a boon to shooter fans. Market's pretty saturated tho...
