  1. In Topic: The Russia Politics and War in Ukraine Thread

    The biggest blockade for a stronger Union is the old part of the EC, imho.

    There are so many pensioners and baby boomers close to pension age there who are afraid to lose their rights if a better fiscal policy is installed, that they will block any attempt at an EU wide reform. This in turn feeds discontent for my own generation and the ones below, who will pony up for these people for the next three to four decades while facing no such cushion themselves, while facing pressure from AI and corporate inflexibility on the job market. It’s no wonder right wing politicians flourish in such an environment, where deflecting blame to immigrants can channel this dissatisfaction to a third group both the old and young can get behind. The centre right echoing far right talking points to keep voters on board for the last two decades is not making it any better.

  2. In Topic: Israel and Iran

    19 June 2025 - 02:15 PM

    Israel’s minister of defence Katz saying Khameini is not allowed to exist anymore after the hospital strike (according to the Guardian) leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth. It is not like Israel respected hospitals, aid workers or even patients in Gaza, and the amount of incidents surely made it seem to me that it met at the very least with tacit approval from the higher authorities in Israel.

    Maybe I am too optimistic, but ECM and interception methods seem to catch up extremely quickly over the course of the war in Ukraine, to the point where what was cutting edge last year is easily neutralised now. I guess the main fear is the usage of drones for terror, but isn’t terror anyway the use of mundane means to create mass casualties? You can still buy gas canisters or buy demolitions explosives, despite how easy it is to turn these into something much more sinister.

  4. In Topic: Soccer/Football/Futbol/Whatever in general

    Well, part of the reason they could reach the final was because there was no influx of Champions League clubs entering the Europa League. Under the old rules, quite some heavyweight teams would have entered it, but with the CLs new format, this does not happen anymore. Bear in mind also that they are both top 10 clubs in annual revenue.

    As for their positioning in the EPL: United have been horrible for years, lacking vision and consistency. Appointing Amorim mid-season when the selection does not support his style of play was just another self inflicted wound. I’d say they are truly a club in crisis, and given the debt racked up to the Glazers, they are probably not a great club to buy either. Spurs had a huge injury crisis, but never really changed their way of play. Interesting to see what they do with their manager.

    That last bit will only last until someone else says something in hearing range of Trump. I saw Rubio was making noise that if nothing is agreed upon soon then the US will "pass" on the peace talks. Bunch of clowns.

    And that after pressing for that mineral deal without security guarantees. Mind you, it might be a blessing in disguise for Ukraine judging by what The Guardian reports (settlement according to current frontlines, plus no NATO membership for Ukraine).
