@EU_Commission Dear European Commission,
Free press = government approved entities.
People voicing their opinions on X = Russian propaganda/fake news.
All the best,

Let the truth be told, let the press be free. 📰
Journalists hold power to account, uncover injustice, and keep citizens informed often at great personal risk.
This #WorldPressFreedomDay, we reaffirm our commitment to protecting journalists and defending independent media.
Because free press is the foundation of democracy.

@AkJetrx @iluminatibot Who said anything about being against free speech?

At the WEF, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez calls for the abolition of anonymity on social media.
He argues that linking user accounts to a European digital identity is essential to tackle "misinformation" and "hate speech."

@drdanielschatz Vem anade att en phd från 'tyskt uni.' ej förutsåg att folk nekar barnamord? Detta transcenderar religion; även sekulära kommer samverka med dem som lovar återställa landets policy för mänsklig integritet och frihet från utländska entiteter. Det är faktiskt lätt att förutsäga.

Vem hade kunnat ana att Kasselstrand skulle börja ragga väljare bland Israelhatande islamister? Pajas.

Många invandrare på TikTok som fått upp ögonen för AFS den senaste tiden. Och alla har en åsikt. Kul! Precis som svenskarna är en del positiva, andra negativa. 😎

Finland was neutral. Had close ties with Russia for years. Then Ukraine and the EU happened. They threw it all away.
Finland traded with Russia. Bought cheap energy. Prospered. Respected by East and West.
Then NATO called. Finland abandoned neutrality. Joined NATO. Sanctioned Russia. Threatened China. Cut off energy. Lost trade. Lost tourism. Lost influence.
What did Finland gain? NATO membership. Article 5.
What did Finland lose? Cheap energy. Russian tourists. Trade. Influence. Economic stability. Social welfare. Sovereignty.
Finland is now the worst performing EU state. Fastest-worsening finances. Highest unemployment. Cutting social welfare. Cities shrinking.
The EU and NATO created megalomania in Helsinki. Five million people acting like a superpower. Threatening China. Sanctioning Russia. Lecturing the world.
China and Russia are not threatened. They are adapting. Finland is isolating itself.
Finland was neutral. Prosperous. Respected.
Then Ukraine and the EU happened.
Now Finland is broke. Broken. And alone.
Neutrality was not cowardice. It was wisdom. Finland forgot that.

🚨🇫🇮 ALERT: Finland's Foreign Minister is trying to break ties between China and Russia. Something even the United States has failed to do. A nation of five million people. Grappling in the super heavyweight division. The EU and NATO have fostered a dangerous sense of megalomania in Helsinki. Finland's foreign relations are being handled as poorly as its economy. Both are in crisis. And they are tightly intertwined. When Finland seeks confrontation instead of cooperation, trade suffers. The economy suffers. The people suffer. China is now telling Finland to stop politicizing trade. That is not a threat. That is a reality check. Megalomania is not foreign policy. It is a suicide note.

To confront Russia, “Europe will spend $90 billion it does not have, to buy weapons from the U.S. that it does not have, to arm soldiers that #Ukraine no longer has.” -- @Glenn_Diesen, Norwegian editor, writer and professor at the University of South-Eastern Norway.

Because we get asked a lot. The Technological Republic, in brief. 1. Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation. 2. We must rebel against the tyranny of the apps. Is the iPhone our greatest creative if not crowning achievement as a civilization? The object has changed our lives, but it may also now be limiting and constraining our sense of the possible. 3. Free email is not enough. The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public. 4. The limits of soft power, of soaring rhetoric alone, have been exposed. The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal. It requires hard power, and hard power in this century will be built on software. 5. The question is not whether A.I. weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose. Our adversaries will not pause to indulge in theatrical debates about the merits of developing technologies with critical military and national security applications. They will proceed. 6. National service should be a universal duty. We should, as a society, seriously consider moving away from an all-volunteer force and only fight the next war if everyone shares in the risk and the cost. 7. If a U.S. Marine asks for a better rifle, we should build it; and the same goes for software. We should as a country be capable of continuing a debate about the appropriateness of military action abroad while remaining unflinching in our commitment to those we have asked to step into harm’s way. 8. Public servants need not be our priests. Any business that compensated its employees in the way that the federal government compensates public servants would struggle to survive. 9. We should show far more grace towards those who have subjected themselves to public life. The eradication of any space for forgiveness—a jettisoning of any tolerance for the complexities and contradictions of the human psyche—may leave us with a cast of characters at the helm we will grow to regret. 10. The psychologization of modern politics is leading us astray. Those who look to the political arena to nourish their soul and sense of self, who rely too heavily on their internal life finding expression in people they may never meet, will be left disappointed. 11. Our society has grown too eager to hasten, and is often gleeful at, the demise of its enemies. The vanquishing of an opponent is a moment to pause, not rejoice. 12. The atomic age is ending. One age of deterrence, the atomic age, is ending, and a new era of deterrence built on A.I. is set to begin. 13. No other country in the history of the world has advanced progressive values more than this one. The United States is far from perfect. But it is easy to forget how much more opportunity exists in this country for those who are not hereditary elites than in any other nation on the planet. 14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace. Too many have forgotten or perhaps take for granted that nearly a century of some version of peace has prevailed in the world without a great power military conflict. At least three generations — billions of people and their children and now grandchildren — have never known a world war. 15. The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone. The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly theatrical commitment to Japanese pacifism will, if maintained, also threaten to shift the balance of power in Asia. 16. We should applaud those who attempt to build where the market has failed to act. The culture almost snickers at Musk’s interest in grand narrative, as if billionaires ought to simply stay in their lane of enriching themselves . . . . Any curiosity or genuine interest in the value of what he has created is essentially dismissed, or perhaps lurks from beneath a thinly veiled scorn. 17. Silicon Valley must play a role in addressing violent crime. Many politicians across the United States have essentially shrugged when it comes to violent crime, abandoning any serious efforts to address the problem or take on any risk with their constituencies or donors in coming up with solutions and experiments in what should be a desperate bid to save lives. 18. The ruthless exposure of the private lives of public figures drives far too much talent away from government service. The public arena—and the shallow and petty assaults against those who dare to do something other than enrich themselves—has become so unforgiving that the republic is left with a significant roster of ineffectual, empty vessels whose ambition one would forgive if there were any genuine belief structure lurking within. 19. The caution in public life that we unwittingly encourage is corrosive. Those who say nothing wrong often say nothing much at all. 20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite’s intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim. 21. Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. 22. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?
