Don’t worry. Even if your government wasn’t owned by Zionists, it would still not be for the people.

Europe@feddit.org•French far left enshrines leaving NATO in official presidential platformEnglish
51·6 days agoEven in a best case scenario, where the US is fully invested into supporting NATO, unlikely as it is, NATO as a whole remains unreliable.
The Article 5, which is supposed to be the security guarantee of all members, doesn’t provide any guarantees at all.
This assistance may or may not involve the use of armed force, and can include any action that Allies deem necessary to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.
https://www.nato.int/en/what-we-do/introduction-to-nato/collective-defence-and-article-5
Core part here - “any action that Allies deem necessary.” This can be literally nothing, if a country deems nothing is necessary. There are no minimum requirements when it comes to supporting a member invoking article 5.
As opposed to Article 42(7) of the Treaty on European Union, which legally binds all member states to do everything in their power to support a member that got attacked, who doesn’t even need to explicitly ask for it first.
This clause provides that if a Member State is the victim of armed aggression on its territory, the other Member States have an obligation to aid and assist it by all the means in their power, in accordance with Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations.
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/EN/legal-content/glossary/mutual-defence-clause.html
Unfortunately, this only helps EU countries. Although it could potentially be extended to other close allies like Canada or the UK. That remains to be seen.
It’s also nowhere close to a full ‘guarantee’, especially due to all the American assets rotting the EU from within, but it’s still more meaningful than NATO ever was.
At this point, I can’t quite comprehend why ideas of leaving NATO are still sometimes seen as extreme. The US is the evil guy. NATO is its own alliance. By supporting it, we quite literally are the baddies. There already exists an alternative, at least for 84% of NATO member states, and potentially coming for more.

Growth is only at all needed, because of a certain group hoarding and wasting everything.
At the current rate, growth will end all life on our planet. Just a few more years of growth, and we’ll be past the ‘no way back’ line.
If objective, factual information is divisionist, that just speaks volumes of how the system is rotten to the core.

We don’t.
This is the exact same thing that happened with luddites, which today we know as ‘idiots who oppose technological progress’ thanks to capitalist propaganda.
It was never about efficiency, quality, quantity, or accessibility. It’s almost exclusively about getting people to stop doing things for themselves, and instead rely on expensive machinery owned exclusively by the capitalist class for everything.
Most average people used to make and fix their own clothing, which meant they had little need for corporations that produce the same clothing, but lower quality. So capitalists forced everyone to use machines, until nobody remembered how to make clothes without them.
Same with software, languages, and a lot of other skills and office jobs right now. Educated people who know how to do stuff are not only unprofitable, but also dangerous. Make them all use AI until they forget everything and have to rely on megacorporations for the tiniest thing.
This is all the more reason to keep reading books, learning, DIY as much as possible, coding your own software, and even learning stuff like woodworking, sewing, farming, etc.
Being educated, informed, knowledgeable, and skilled is among the easiest, but at the same time most effective acts of resistance.
Do not let them turn you into mindless slaves.

It’s Instagram. You think Facebook isn’t going to train AI on literally every piece of content on their websites, that it already has licenses to?
We have a word for this, but some people are still afraid to use it.
It will be streamed on TikTok for 10 minutes before the servers are taken offline.
Economics used to be closely tied to ethics. All economics programs at universities featured a lot of mandatory ethics classes.
Then they removed the ethics part.



Doing only what is economically viable is precisely the problem.
