But American companies harvesting our data and sending it straight into the hands of the Trump administration and his harem of tech whores like Zuckerberg, Bezos, Altman are a-okay. I’d rather have China harvest my data, because China doesn’t have as much influence over my life here in Germany as the US does.

What features would that include that the phone doesn’t already have? I’m currently an iPhone user, but I’m looking to move to a more open source alternative.

I’m talking about these “farmers” mistreating their workers, exploiting undocumented immigrants, and so on.

Heinous country. Imagine being such a horrible place that you mistreat the ones that feed you.

Because China doesn’t have as much influence in Europe as the US does. Besides that, there’s a higher chance of US companies sharing data with European governments than Chinese companies doing so.

As someone living in Europe I’m more concerned with American companies harvesting my data.

You could pick so many more things to criticize China for especially from its past, verifiable events, yet the west always picks Tiananmen Square, making sure to pick the image of the guy standing in front of the tank, but somehow always forgets to show the video of the guy climbing on top of the tank, asking soldiers to turn around to where the protesters are, and somehow forget mentioning that literally half the casualties were soldiers that were set ablaze. Even diplomatic cables at the time either leaked or declassified prove that.

“hard-right”? That guy is far-right and has ties to actual fascist groups

It’s a completely overvalued company. Other car companies have a much higher production rate, sell more cars, at a much better quality, and have more market share, yet don’t “enjoy” the same kind of market valuation. In Germany, Teslas are on par with Dacia in terms of production quality, yet Dacia sells cars at a fraction of the cost of Tesla. In other words, it’s a bubble. One way or another, it will burst, and if it takes the nazi boss in charge down with it, even better.

No. I do not have Russian heritage, nor does my family. I’m Romanian, with a bit of jewish and Czech ancestry. I was born in the 90s. My family is working class. As were my grandparents, and their parents, and so on. Peasants and workers. Always lived in Romania

I’m Eastern European. I think I know my fair share of people who lived in socialist countries. Gladly, we’re not all willing to swallow fascist capitalist propaganda.

If this is the mentality you’re gonna approach this situation with, you’re cooked. The demented orange asshole is already building a dictatorship and democrats barely give a shit. “Fearing the consequences” isn’t something they do because there are no consequences as we’ve seen multiple times. You gotta make them fear for their lives. And you gotta give people a real alternative to the oligarchy that is the US.

Germany has a problem with trigger happy nazi cops.

They weren’t allies. Pick up a history book.

Of course. Germany should make a fuss about both instances. Both wars are illegal wars of aggression. In a perfect world all conflicts should be handled with the utmost seriousness.
