It’s been time to react for decades, but people and politicians are so stupid they didn’t because USA is our “ally”, but if they really were our ally, they wouldn’t pull shit like this. They also wouldn’t make illegal surveillance in and against allied countries, with the purpose of influencing or countering politicians from allied countries, circumventing the democratic process of said countries.
USA is an enemy of democracy, and has been for decades.
USA is a rogue state, the fact that they do these things administratively is complete disregard for human rights and complete disregard for the concept of operating within the law.
It is yet another example of how USA does not respect civil rights of people of other nations, and they don’t respect the sovereignty even of “allied” countries.
It’s disgusting, and it has infuriated me for decades how we in for instance Europe has allowed USA to do this, without as much as criticism.
There is no way it can be considered acceptable that USA can apply pressure on what a judge of a sovereign country or international organization decides. Not a judge or any politician or public servant or any private citizen for that matter.
But the fact that USA has the audacity to go after ICC judges, shows the extreme level of entitlement and exceptionalism USA feel they have in the world.
USA MUST be treated as a rogue nation, and we can’t allow them to continue. If Amazon does this, we need to ban Amazon in EU.
And fuck all the idiots that use Amazon cloud services, you should get the fuck away from American services already. It’s been crystal clear obvious that they operate illegally according to EU law at least since Obama was president!
Why the fuck are people still using their crap!
To me it sounds weird to “apply for an official online service”. We have access to all public online services through the same login we use for banks and the official public digital mail service.
No matter if it’s tax, health, prescription renewal, the bank or whatever, we login through the same login service, and every danish citizen automatically has access to all public services without applying and without delay.
Even people who are not citizens, like for instance exchange students are issued access to this system.
You can still send letters as before, it’s just another company handling them.
We have an official digital service which provides all official letters and also has the ability to return them as legally signed.
Letter deliveries continue as always, it’s just another company delivering the service.
The company taking over is already in the parcel and morning paper delivery service, and letters today are so few in Denmark, that they can probably take that up pretty easily.
Letters are so rare here that last year our household only received 3 letters, and 2 of them were small medical test kits, that would probably have been cheaper to send as parcels. So in reality I count it as only 1 letter, and the previous year I don’t recall receiving a single letter!

Britons making sure the decline after losing the Empire, and later after Brexit continues.
Xenophobia and exceptionalism combined is probably the most direct route to decline of a civilization.
It’s weird how USA and UK are messing up completely like they are dancing a weird dance of death together.
Apart from being wrong, the rest simply made zero sense, so I admit I simply blocked him. Waste of time IMO, I don’t mind people disagreeing if I at least can understand where they are coming from, but those 2 comments were worse than a bad AI IMO.
You are right, that is a great video, very well made and spot on correct.
The video shows Norway having by far the highest benefits for families with children, so I looked it up to see if it works, but their fertility rate remains very low at only 1.4!
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

The euro has had the biggest gain of the major currencies against the faltering dollar, surging nearly 14 per cent to above $1.17
That’s for 2025.
Wall Street banks expect the euro to strengthen to $1.20 by the end of 2026
So 3 cent decline for the dollar for 2026, that is pretty stable if that holds.
The headline must refer to what has already happened, but then why is it “on track” instead of it being already a fact?
Or does the author not believe the Wall Street banks?
Anywho I don’t believe the dollar will only decline 3 cents against the Euro in 2026.
The American economy would clearly be in declining growth already, if it wasn’t for the AI bubble. I suspect this to become clearer when job numbers for January and February 2026 are released.
The completely irresponsible federal budget for 2026 probably won’t help either, and the Trump administration is almost guaranteed to make things worse as they continue their crazy policies, with or without Trump, I don’t think that really matters much. The rest of the administration is as crazy as Trump is.
Joke aside, that’s kind of the vibe it gives off.
Better to live to fight another day IMO. I will strongly discourage anyone from going on hunger strike, it will more likely than not ruin your health for the rest of your life, and it will also shorten your life, if you don’t die outright while striking.
True but that was a first and it was bigger and part of simultaneous demonstrations, and it broke with dogma of women being weak. So probably way bigger story for the press back then in the early 1900’s.
Today hunger strikes very often don’t get much attention, in this case, it is close to game over for these people.
Funny then how your previous comment is completely disconnected from the real problem.
I think I’ll just block you, because you are too weird for me.
Enron was cooking the books hiding huge deficits, and spending the money from the workers pension funds, so no Nvidia isn’t Enron, but that doesn’t mean it’s all good.
Enron was the absolute worst, only matched by the Bernie Madoff pyramid scheme and the Bankman Fried crypto fraud.
Saying you are better than that is a very bad look.
I don’t think you understand the problem, because lower is absolutely worse. A small decline in population is fine, the world probably has too many people already. But a steep decline like this is catastrophic for a country.
The fertility rate required to maintain population is around 2.1, having it at only 0.8 is really bad, making the South Korean population basically on a path to extinction within a few hundred years.
The principle of doing it yes, the way of doing it no.
Absolutely horrible, it’s sad anyone had to live through that. I hope you are OK now.
Tesla is on the way down in every major market China/USA/EU, So it won’t be long before Tesla isn’t number 2 either. VW is clearly the leader in EU, but they are not so strong in either USA or China. So maybe Hyundai or Toyota will be the next brand to surpass Tesla?
IMO VW group has the best affordable EV’s currently, I just bought a VW ID.4 last month, but if I had the money, I would have bought a BMW or Mercedes. But the ID.4 is still a very nice car and I’m quite happy with it. 😎
In a few years Tesla will probably be behind BYD, Geely, Xpeng, Toyota, Hyundai and VW group.
On the technology they are already way behind the Chinese brands on charging, and VW, BMW and Mercedes on quality. Probably also behind Hyundai.
Toyota is only getting started on BEV, so I’m not really counting them yet. But I am confident they will compete in the top soon.
