Trump's deadline to the European Union came as a trade court ruled his global tariff policy violated US law.

    1. Americans are paying those tariffs. They want some European products too.
    2. Donald Trump is not all powerful in the US. Their Supreme Court will probably take action against illegal tariffs and reverse them. Paying back billions of USD.
    3. Introducing different tariffs for different entities is a bureaucratic nightmare.
    4. Trump himself is stupid enough to buy European products after that because he thinks they are higher quality (more price = better product)

          I would never!
          (Beyond what society kinda forces me into, like can’t buy proper local things.)
          Just a bit of a joke, and even that with a question mark.

          What kind of a stupid protest even is to teabag your own harbour?

    Please increase it by 10% every month. It’s the only thing that’ll make our fuckwitted, asskissing, bootlicking, saliva-guzzling, Trump-slaves understand.

    The timing was truly impeccable this time: within hours of Trump’s newest tariff threats to the EU, a federal court struck down his latest round of global tariffs. Makes you wonder how long these EU tariffs would stand, if the orange turd didn’t TACO out of them beforehand. After all, there are plenty of Tuesdays until July…

    So the pitiful remainder of EU business who haven’t already retooled their market elsewhere will be even more incentivised to do that now then.

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 When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title.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.)
