Economic liberalism did away with the divine right of kings and rule by bloodlines. Replacing it with something ultimately, arguably worse.
Come on, man! The serfs/peasants/slaves had it way worse than anyone living under “economic liberalism”. There is no comparison! Not even close.
I will agree that zero tolerance policies oligarchs (all well as senior associates, propagandists and enablers) does benefit everyone.
Her foreign policy and her statesmanship on the other hand was widely respected.
FWIW, in Ukraine (and many other parts of Europe), her foreign policy w.r.t russia is seen as de-facto enabling russian genocidal imperialism (as a conscious and pre-mediated decision). She nurtured and enabled putin every step of the way.
I am of course not speaking for German public, since I’ve never lived in Germany.
What a fucking idiot. Some degenerate from what seems like provincial Washington state is making calls about the leadership of Ukraine?
We should send his family to Pokrovsk (a key frontline town in Donetsk oblast) to do logistics volunteer work.
Hell, they can even come to my apartment in Kyiv. While it’s safe here, I have a feeling they are not going to enjoy daily shahed OWA strike warnings that happen in and around midnight or regular getting ballistic strike warnings at 4 am (and hearing takedowns of said shaheds and ballistic missiles during the night). Or seeing that the building down the street recently got hit my debris from a shahed takedown.
I’m talking like impeaching and removing a broad swath of this administration
I am not American (have lived their though), but I think the likelihood of this actually happening is even less than a focused street protest movement gaining control of key infrastructure nodes (ports, airport, federal and local state buildings, critical highway intersections), Trump’s admin losing control of small parts of the US, local internment of pro-Trump oligarchs and their affiliates and so on.
And the latter is borderline impossible. I would love to be proven wrong though (I will settle for any count).
Who the fuck is Baumgartner?
I am assuming some corrupt American?
It’s going to require daily nationwide protests going on for months and months with national participation approaching 1-2% of the population (4-8 million) on weekends and clear and actionable demands (resignation of Trump and his goons and corrupt members of the judiciary).
From my experience living in the US, I don’t think this is likely (I do hope I am wrong). Geographic size can actually be managed by having many thousands of protest sites by key admin buildings all throughout the country. The bigger issue is perhaps a lack of experience “operationalizing” beliefs and standing up to a thugs and oligarchs.
