I would really appreciate not to read about "wake up calls" here anymore. Either the EU has woken up by now and gets its act together in Munich or it's too late anyway. Winter is here. - ThreadSky

Sending some Cali love 🌻 Spring will follow the Winter someday.

i didn't expect to have to spend 2025 on the street shouting and holding up signs.

J.D. Vance (US Vice-Predident) reproving Germans for not letting fascists (AfD) taking part in German politics bewilders me to the utmost and will make Churchill, De Gaulle and Adenauer turn in their graves!

We've been freezing here in the US since January 20 ... 25°C in February doesn’t change a thing. Can’t see us getting out of it, at least for another 2 years.

And it seems like it’s going to be a long cold dark winter

I don't want it to be too late.
But, our UK politicians are still playing as if peace for our citizens is unquestioned. Keeping defence spending down to manage expenditure ...

Thanks for speaking out, Frau Dittert! It's so important that seasoned and popular journalists sound the alarm when it's really time to do so. And it's time now.

I think the wake-up calls are necessary.

I do think political leadership knows the situation, and has known for a while.

But all of us, every European needs to rethink their relationship and association with the West.

So a few more wake-up calls, please 🙏 Not everyone got the memo, yet.

Good old retrospect. The dishonest commentators' friend. Not you. Them.

This is even worse than expected and I fear for the life of my teenage sons in this new era of tech faschism.

I had the same thought about my nieces and nephews. Climate crisis and fascism. What a future.

As an American legally trapped in France and watching what's playing out globally
The wakeup calls are needed but on a public level
I'm still on meta apps & I watch the crowd
Far too many are wearing rose tinted glasses
Avoiding the truth at "home"
Pointing fingers at the states

keepitraw.bsky.social•9 days ago

All the while, the same is playing out globally but isn't as blatantly obvious as Diaper Genie, Muskrat and their twatwaffle lemmings brigade

If I look at all the SA/voyeurism/trafficking cases in France, gangs or as far back as Anis K
The locals can't believe what's been hiding in plain sight

Before 2020, I got called a racist in a UK FB group for truthfully badmouthing french men... Yet I could see &was experiencing the toxicity & I wasn't at all surprised at the Palicot case

Until enough of the people, globally, wake up... We'll keep repeating patterns

keepitraw.bsky.social•9 days ago

These wake up calls are vital
Too many are willfully choosing to dumb down what's happening around them
Be it small scale, within their country or globally

Western society has collectively been groomed with cult behavior
It takes a while to wake up when you're in a toxic codependent relationship

keepitraw.bsky.social•9 days ago

And collectively...
We are all in a toxic codependent relationship with our own governments

Starting at top levels yes
But mirrored all the way to the smallest levels

Avoidance is easy
Taking accountability puts everything and everyone into question
Folks aren't authentic enough for that yet

Es gibt einige kognitive Verzerrungen, die uns glauben lassen, dass man es hat kommen sehen und wir nur endlich aufwachen müssten.
Jetzt gilt: "Cometh the hour, cometh the man." Wo ist die Person mit Visionen für Europa und Führungsqualitäten?

There is none. It is us all, or none.

4 parties now:
1 Republicans
2 Democrats
3 MAGA - egg prices
4 name TBD (now currently in the exec branch) leaning neo-reactionary. Fueled by ideological myths, using Nationalist Socialist tactics to indoctrinate, amplified by tech.

To understand actions we must understand their ideology.
