      Well because the EU realises that if you increase tariffs then people pay the price (or variety of goods they can buy comfortably decreases)

          If the terrorists have the biggest military in the world, control over all major digital services, a secret service that knows when you last have pooped AND have enough force for a literal occupation already on your territory... well... things get more complicated

              'Complicated' is certainly one way to put it.

                What the should do is tax their fucking techbro companies already. People don't pay for Instagram and google, companies using their shitty spying ad networks do, so it would be killing two birds with one stone.

                  That's what some people want... Not saying I like her. But Russia, China and now the USA want Europeans to be divided on our perception of European politicians.

                        Yes, they all want us to vote for the far-right populist candidate instead.

                            I see your point, but I don't feel divided about the EU; and "feeling divided about politicians" is basically the definition of democracy.

                            And if you didn't catch my drift, von der Leyen's track record has not been very good for years.

                                        We have nukes. We can set them off should they invade. Better nuclear war than fascist rule.

                                          Well, here we differ: I will happily live under a fascist ruler if the alternative is dying in (nuclear-) fire.

                                          I suspect this is something you learn if you grow older, have family... and have witnessed actual combat...
