  • This is done for Venezuela.

    Exactly, it says:

    " The asset freeze does not affect members of the current Venezuelan government, and Switzerland said it will seek to return any funds found to be illicitly acquired to benefit the Venezuelan people."

    “The asset freeze was a precautionary measure and applied to Maduro and his associates as foreign politically exposed persons, the government said.”

    The account owners were arrested and are under duress, and nobody knows yet who the legal new head of state is. So anybody with some access (including Maduro pressured by US) could illegally seize it. That’s why they froze the accounts for now.


  • cheering violence against people, including violence against Ukraine by Russian invaders

    It’s also funny how like even “mildly critical” articles - independent of content and journalistic quality- about Ruzz or CCP have like a continuous standard minimum of 10% downvotes. Like, always. So, yes there certainly seems to be some spill-over.

    Ideologacally, imo, certain issues have also been mentally and psychologically tied by certain narratives; like Electric Vehicles, Palestina, Colonialism, Climate Change, racism to being “pro-China and Ruzzia”, but also anti-EU.

    This “mental contruct” is imo completely bogus, but one has to admit that the propaganda narrative has worked out very well for them. They really have spread their information virus to certain groups.

    Oligarchs like in Ruzzia, CCP or Arabian Petro States only care for more power. They don’t care about human lives, climate, environment or human rights at all. They are not even democratic so how can they remotely be linked to proper socialism?

    And yes, there is still alot of criticism that politicians in Europe and memberstates deserve. But hey, they are trying and are manoeuvring between a Western and Eastern threat, and an enemy within.





  • Do something, you idiots!

    I wish that too.

    But unsure what we/ they can do at this point. Especially since most big decisions are being blocked by a veto. They are reaarming,sort of implementing Draghi report, and preparing maybe for a new fourth tier majority led EU.

    The Danish, Greenlanders & allies, are rightfully very worried about Trump’s next target, Greenland. That’s apart from the plans and meddling that The Heritage Foundation has for dismantling the EU.

    Could be after the weekend “they” come with something better.


  • For more info see also this wiki quote:

    “The art of propaganda is not telling lies, but rather selecting the truth you require and giving it mixed up with some truths the audience wants to hear.”

    Also, in light of the illegal US actions and abduction of the Venezuelan dictator, I’ve seen the craziest dialogues. I get that such acts invoke anger, fear and dismay, yet I’d rather have a contructive respectful argumented discussion than exchanging insults in a shouting contest or engage in a blame game without proof and context.

    • blaming or atacking a specific person, nationality ( like All Americans and or All Europeans) for not stoping Trump, and or Putin and/ or Natanjahu.
    • blaming or atacking a specific person, nationality for supporting Fascism, discrimination, etc

    But also realize that malicious foreign actors use these exact same technique to further their disruptive mis-and disinformation campaigns.

    Though the blame game, accountability, responsibility and democracy may intertwine; the Spirit, content and the formulation of posts and comments are essential to differentiate intention. It could all just be emotional or stupidity, but it may also be a malicious Biohazardous disinfo virus.

    So, let’s not be a (unintentional) vessel for misinfo and or disinfo. If you stand for democratic values, freedom, human rights, and want a better future, stay alert and adhere to a respectful engagement, be true.
