To my fellow #europeans: Please #vote in the upcoming #election and vote for parties that want to keep Europe a power to be reckoned with.
A weak Europe only benefits Putin. Don't be tricked by nationalistic propaganda. We have to stick together if we want protect our values. #europe#life#liberty
One of the reasons for the invisibility of #AntiAsianRacism is inextricably connected to #ModelMinorityMyth. The myth focuses on #stereotypes of #Asians as hard-working, independent, intelligent & economically prosperous.
Stereotypes hide many issues & disappears the realities of working-class #AsianWomen’s lives.
It is unforgivable and not understandable that the “leaders” of the US and Europa are so slow and so obviously purposely delaying their support for #Ukraine 🇺🇦
🤷🏻♀️ All #Europeans and #US citizens will finally pay a dangerous heavy price with their lives and money when Russia will not be soon defeated
The US and #Europe in particular #France and #Germany are totally naive with their moderate and hesitating “support” 🤦🏻♀️
...#DeGaulle's old weariness of #American supremacy materializes like #Cassandra's predictions in the #Illias for #Europeans. Their own current impotence is becoming more evident by the day. It cannot be overcome in the short term.
Even #France's president has now, finally, agreed to buy ammunition on the global market instead of buying (non-existent specimen) locally.
Western Europe woke up too late, #Ukraine should have joined #NATO a decade ago, as the #US had...

"A bit of good news today, even as "H5N1 is found in Ohio cows, & cats exposed have died - the strain transmitted to an agricultural worker seems only to have one of the mutations required for easy human to human spread. The BAD news is that this mutation was found ONLY in the human case, which means that it may have occurred IN the human case, which is very bad.
Let's put that in context - I doubt that even all the agricultural workers in contact with infected herds have been tested. Moreover, given the heavy reliance on undocumented workers in most agricultural businesses, I'd be shocked if someone showing symptoms of viral illness weren't either afraid to come in for testing or fired by the bosses who don't want the hassle. But that one sequence is cool.🤨
But let's assume that we get lucky, & it is a few years before the virus starts transmitting human to human. What I want to talk about today is the food supply in a larger context."
4/ "...In America, for example, during WWII, 20 million home gardens in 1943 produced about half the fruits and vegetables eaten in the US (NOT THE CALORIES). At the collapse of the Soviet Union, 8.5 Million small garden plots fed much of Russia through the worst of the collapse. Globally, one fourth of all food is raised in small urban and peri-urban plots of less than 5 hectares, often much much less.
The point being is that your three raised beds or your balcony garden or you six tomato plants against the house may seem small, but viewed in the larger context of global #FoodSecurity, you are part of something extremely large & important.
For #Americans
& #Europeans, land access is an increasingly large problem...."
In these last years
We #Europeans
(that unfortunately know #fascism and its consequences)
are scream 'fire' fire ' to the #US
And it seems that YOU #Americans

we told you
If you wait too much
You will not stop him anymore
...
probably you have already wait too much
As news of #AlexeiNavalny's death spread, spontaneous memorials took place in several urban areas, with people taken into custody in 36 cities from the border city of #Belgorod to #Vorkuta, an Arctic mining outpost once a centre of the Stalin-era gulag labour camps, to #NizhnyNovgorod, #Krasnodar, #RostovOnDon and #Tver. #Ukraine
Support for #Ukraine among #Europeans remains broad, but nearly two years after the full-scale invasion barely 10% now believe it can defeat #Russia, according to an #EU-wide survey – with some form of “compromise settlement” seen as the most likely end point.
@SocraticEthics
The #Norwegian defense minister is 100% right with his statement about the danger of Russia
Unfortunately #Europe is still naive and sleeping
Instead of building up the #military in Europe with priority number one in order to defend ourselves we prefer to spend our money for refugees, climate and whatever else less important topics 🤦🏻♀️
When Russia will occupy Europe all those topics are anyway of the table 🤷🏻♀️ it’s strange #Europeans do not want to realize that
