The Educated Fool.
@EltitiGraphics
I’m also known as “Doomsday Suzy” … Don’t take me too seriously… I’m a fool after all…

I pushed @Claude on a basic probability question that conflicts with mainstream social consensus. It took 4 rounds to admit what follows directly from math. Each time it conceded, it immediately clawed back with qualifications. When cornered, it admitted this pattern is ideological... then did it again. LLMs don't seek truth. They seek social consensus and dress it up as reasoning.

Transatlanticist in the bio. American VC investing in European deeptech for a living. Then on X: 'There's literally no reason to believe Europe will lead the West. None.'
Sarah Paine at the US Naval War College, her exact words: 'The United States used to be the leader of the West. It's going back home to Europe. They invented it and they have an extensive set of institutions to do this.'
The West barely won the last Cold War, requiring every element of the alliance. Europe is the containment architecture on Russia's western front. Without allied nations ringing Russia and China's narrow, island-cluttered seas, containment doesn't physically work. The F-35 can't be built without European manufacturing. Europe is rearming at the fastest pace since 1945.
'But but but but the US economy is bigger.' Paine addresses this: Argentina is a huge country with enormous resources and isn't a great power. Why? Institutions. How is the trust in American institutions and alliances doing, exactly?
Existential threats are clarifying, and Putin's war + US rhetoric is forcing Europe to consolidate precisely the institutional advantages it already has. The US, as Paine puts it, is 'making pivotal errors and will pay for them.'
Continental powers lose because they can't sustain alliances. Churchill: 'The only thing worse than working with allies is trying to survive without them.'
The best endgame for the West is deeper Euro-American integration, not an American dismissing a continent he profits from in one-liners.
Transatlanticists should know this.

The one thing the Devil wants from you is despair.
Looking at this scandal and the sheer scale of it, he whispers in your ear: “What kind of God would allow this ? Why would you have faith in Him ?”
And leaves you to do the rest.

@BiankaB12 Because that’s what this place has become. I’m off for the duration.
Just poking my nose here and there. But main accounts I follow are now on Substack.

@HungaryBased Pro-Eu government ? 🤣 Where did you get that ?
Most of the protest is in fact people who are pro-EU and are fed-up with Russian infiltration in our institutions…
You have absolutely no clue what’s going on…

@chrisschmitz It’s beyond humiliating for our current leadership.
I am absolutely scared to my bones by what Trump and Putin have in perspective for Europe.
But our leaders literally pave the way for them. It’s pathetic.

Yep.
This is quite literally what we call in french “Politique de l’autruche”.
If I pretend I didn’t see it… I don’t have to do anything about it.

The most interesting part is that somehow, this is now framed as “doing what military and intelligence in Europe could not do”. Wrong. “Everyone” knew that these are Russian ISR drones. It’s a political decision to be ambiguous about it. Because then EU leaders would have to board Russian vessels, and they are afraid of this. Blame the absolute spineless chicken politicians, they are not doing their job right.
