Unfortunately Orban can … and he was just paid off (10 billion euros) to leave the room when they voted to start accession talks with ukraine

This is a defect within the EU because the creators of the EU actually thought that all their countries would stay democratic …

That’s a well known kbin bug - sometimes random images are selected (even porn)

Correct with the caveat that the Polish truckers have to comply with the EU regulations (laws designed to make sure drivers aren’t forced to drive 12 hours straight and their trucks are not falling apart) while the Ukrainian ones don’t.

That is simply not true. If you drive through a country you have to adhere to that countries standards, no matter where you or your truck are from.

This means that every member state effectively has a veto it can use to block core EU policy, like sending billions of euros to a war-torn country or letting a country into the club.

Yeah, it is not like a single Senator like Manchin could influence the policies of the whole Biden administration. The US is immune to renegade politicians.

It is a label that is applied to a small group of democrats only, as far as I understand.

Yes, it is visible to me - I am on kbin though

I guess having so many years Orban in power does leave its mark.

You think that Orban ruled in Poland?

Wow.

I would avoid Aljazeera as a source since it hasn’t the best credibility. There are enough other news outlets talking about this.

Yeah, that is true. In Germany for example the far right AFD and the, soon to be, far right (Geert Wilders Style) BSW / Bündnis Sarah Wagenknecht, have solid 30%+ of the votes in Germany, if the polls hold true.

The only positive thing I see going for Europe is, that we are not yet (!) as fucked as the US, because most of the time the politicians still actually discuss and are willing to work towards a solution. That behavior is deteriorating in my opinion though.

I personally don’t agree on much with that woman but at least she isn’t a warmonger. I have lost a lot of respect for a European left that cozies up with Putin and other terrorists though.

I wouldn’t want to miss out on your other takes, why would I block you? Are you scared that you couldn’t spread your bad faith arguments anymore?

You are using words that don’t mean what you think they mean. Maybe read up about them before trying to impress other people with them?

Nice ad hominem you got there

If you don’t like what MBFC says about your favorite propaganda outlet, maybe tell the Mods that you are sad about it?

What are you laughing about?

MBFC is even part of rule 3 of this community. If you don’t like it maybe you should leave the community?

Maybe because the old PIS Government is finally history in Poland?

In their last days of government it seemed they tried to thrive on adversity against Ukraine.

Then why not use NPR as a source?

Interesting that Chinese „Opinion Makers“ now decide to pitch for Hamas.

That news site is considered fake news by MBFC: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/fake-news/

He probably talks about the ceasefire that was in place before October 7th
