Good luck. Vance wants to forge an alternative transatlantic alliance outside of the establishment crowd gathered at the MSC. His audience was Weidel, Orban, Kickl, Wilders, Fico, PiS in Poland etc & far-right European intellectuals, influencers, journos that were schmoozed by Bannon - ThreadSky

It's all too gross.

Relieved that Meloni's not on the list for now (and she signed the Weimar declaration), but Italy has some pretty rabid right-wing press and it will be interesting to see if she starts getting stick for standing firm.

Why are our leaders SOOOO stupid?

nicolekidmansnose.bsky.social•7 days ago

Because choosing to confront reality is hard and will require tough choices. It's easier to delude yourself, put your fingers in your ears and shout nahnahnah.

Merz is more interested in owning the left than in noticing the long term damage Trump & friends are doing to their own country

nicolekidmansnose.bsky.social•7 days ago

So far, every time when confronted between choosing national/EU-interest and potential electoral gain - Merz chose electioneering. Hasn't really helped him in the polls.

ryukyu-hsr.bsky.social•7 days ago

It's not just electioneering, he's always hated compromising with the centre-left, political reality be damned. Wasn't that his main criticism of Merkel?

nicolekidmansnose.bsky.social•7 days ago

Yes, that's one of the many reasons he loathes Merkel and everything she represents. In his head, Merkel is not really a conservative but a barely disguised centre-left liberal.

And Merz could easily make himself into a useful idiots!

To be fair, Merz was much stronger and clearer today:

Far-right European intellectual: a triple oxymoron?

rivermint.bsky.social•7 days ago

What shape is the strategic liberal response taking, to Bannon and co’s plotting and disruption in Europe? Are there clever policy makers, philosophers, psychologists, working long term on promoting our views? I’d really like to know, I’d really like to help.

rivermint.bsky.social•7 days ago

I feel that we liberals are too happy having balanced, engaged lives, and we’re lacking the rage to counteract this fascist shit
