Eighty billion dollars. Gone. To build a digital ghost town where legless cartoons stood around doing nothing, because Mark Zuckerberg looked at Facebook – a website people use to congratulate their guinea pig on its birthday – and thought: what this needs is a worse version of reality.
He was wrong. Historically, catastrophically, trouserlessly wrong.

@skunx_rik @AndrewYang There are millions upon millions of europeans that can afford to go you moron. Many are choosing to spend elsewhere where they are respected....

@AndrewYang Don't underestimate how poorly Europe is doing financially. Going to the US is becoming less affordable for the average European every year.

Desde febrero de 2022, inicio de la guerra de Ucrania, Kiev, ha recibido de sus aliados unos 600 interceptores PAC-3 para los sistemas antimisiles Patriots. En once días de guerra de Irán, EEUU y aliados han usado unos 1.000 (cálculos de @BBGIntelligence).

@alemannoEU It's a pity Garicano always points in the same direction. He ain't looking for balance, just something that will confirm his point of view.

It’s indeed too tempting to fall into Spanish patriotism, but better to remain fresh minded! A bit more context welcome
Luis Garicano 🇪🇺🇺🇦@lugaricano
As often before I am stunned by your reporting. Your foreign readers do not get any context for the PM's actions: the corruption surrounding him from all sides (e.g. his two number two's in jail) & his domestic weakness (governing by executive order, last budget passed in 2023).

@danielisdizzy What a clown. Does he know how the war is going to end up? Most serious investors would tell you they have no idea what will happend and therefore you should plan accordingly.

Childish insults only reinforce the fact that Trump hates Zelenskyy on a petty, personal level because Zelenskyy is everything he is not—a man of courage who represents his nation not himself—and refuses to cave into Trump's demands to surrender to Russia.
Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦@jurgen_nauditt
Trump wins the prize for repugnance. Donald Trump, the self-proclaimed "wartime president" and master of distraction, has reached a new low in moral depravity with his latest attack on Volodymyr Zelenskyy as the "P.T. Barnum of Ukraine." This repugnant rhetoric is nothing more than a desperate attempt to mask his own catastrophic incompetence in every area—from foreign policy to military leadership to basic humanity. By shifting the blame for his own failures onto Zelenskyy and Ukraine, which has suffered four years of brutal Russian aggression, Trump exposes himself for what he truly is: a weak, evil, and utterly repugnant individual incapable of taking responsibility. Trump has unleashed a war against Iran—without congressional approval, based on flimsy justifications that were already refuted by his own Pentagon briefings on the second day. US soldiers dead, the Gulf region ablaze, Dubai a battlefield—and who's to blame? Not the man who pulled the trigger, but Biden and Zelenskyy, who supposedly "gave away" ammunition. This isn't just ridiculous, it's pathological. Trump, who boasts of having "rebuilt" the military, is implicitly admitting that his armed forces aren't even equipped for a "four- to five-week" conflict. And instead of acknowledging his failures—such as underfunding ammunition production or chaotic planning—he shifts the blame to a nation fighting a genocide-prone aggressor. Ukraine has received billions in aid since 2022 to defend itself, not to "cheat." Trump is twisting this to justify his own waste in "Epic Fury"—a war that's swallowing billions while he dismisses Ukraine as a "show." The comparison to P.T. Barnum is particularly toxic and dehumanizing. Barnum, the charlatan who turned suffering into entertainment—that's Trump's code for: The Ukraine war is fake, the massacres in Bucha, the destroyed cities, the traumatized children? All a staged event to fleece "suckers" like Biden and thus America. This isn't just a lie; it's an insult to every victim of Russian terror. Trump is dehumanizing an entire people who are heroically resisting in order to sell his own "strength." He, the man who eliminates Khamenei's successor without a plan for the consequences, poses as a "winner" while sending thousands to their deaths. That's not strength; that's madness disguised as machismo. People like Trump—incompetent, flawed, and cowardly—are the real charlatans. They build empires on lies, shift the blame onto the weak, and destroy everything they touch. Zelenskyy is fighting for freedom; Trump is fighting only for his ego. This rhetoric is not only repugnant, it's dangerous: it undermines alliances, emboldens aggressors like Putin, and betrays American values. Trump doesn't deserve a platform; he deserves contempt. History will expose him as the ultimate "sucker"—the one who leads a country to ruin just to save himself. Thanks, Regina @Sunnymica , for the tip and the template!

Algo interesante que ha surgido de este conflicto: Medio Oriente en el siglo 21 no es solo un choke point para el petróleo, se ha convertido también en un choke point de transporte aéreo de Occidente hacia Asia.

No, no todas las guerras tienen origen económico. Es un reduccionismo especialmente inútil cuando hablamos de regímenes fascistas, que se mueven con lógicas antieconómicas. Italia invadió Albania y Grecia en 1940 solo por una cuestión de prestigio.

Lo he contado antes.
Estuve dos veces en Irán por cuestiones de trabajo como intérprete del inglés/español al farsi. Son unos tipos desagradables. Odian a los homosexuales, pero se pasan el tiempo toqueteándose entre ellos, jugando de manos y casi besándose cuando están en grupos, aparentemente solos.
Son enfermos a vacilar con lascivia a cualquier mujer occidental que se cubre únicamente la cabeza, pero lleva, por ejemplo, pantalones apretados o un vestido ceñido. No hay culo que pase por delante de ellos que no se volteen a ver de manera desvergonzada.
Durante mi estancia, siempre imponían reglas absurdas, cambiaban de planes, te retiraban la comida de un lugar y luego se hacían los desentendidos, diciendo que no entendían ni español ni inglés. En la calle, la policía política, que vestía ropa gris, acechaba a las mujeres para ver si estaban muy maquilladas o se les veía el cerquillo por debajo del pañuelo obligatorio.
Eso fue en el año 1996.
¿Qué se puede defender de esos salvajes subnormales?

@ATAV01342060 @BrankoMilan It always astounds me how much Ukranians are ignored in this discussion!
"There was a coup against Yanukovych".
Em no. Over 300 MPs voted for him to be ousted.
"Ukronazi corrupt thieves"
Yanukovych lived in a freaking palace full of stolen shit and was Putins stooge.

@BrankoMilan Yes, because you believe ukranians don't have any agency, do they?
This is how you catch an imperialistic asshole. It's someone who just assumes that some people are slaves to a bigger power who blindly follow orders.

Why many EU/UK countries are extraordinarily bellicose in the Ukraine-Russia war is easy to understand, if thought in simplest possible terms.
Costs to them in lost people or destroyed infrastructure are zero. They do bear financial costs but these would be compensated by the seized Russian assets.
They put an implicit value of zero on Ukrainian lives.
Their implicit value on Russian lives is negative b/c they believe that there is a fundamental conflict between Europe and Russia: Napolean, Crimean War, Hitler, Cold War. 4 big wars in 200 years.
Since Russian dead are a plus, and Ukrainian dead are a zero, the longer the war last the better.
Until both sides are totally exhausted & have in the meantime destroyed own countries.
This is like Churchill's mid-1930s idea about the ideal Nazi-Soviet war to total exhaustion.

@HelenaVillarO El único plan macabro es la invasión de Ucrania por parte de Putín.

Ucrania recluta a la fuerza. Los rusos son voluntarios. Ucrania tiene 18 millones de hombres. Rusia, 66 millones. Un plan sin fisuras el de Zelenski y, sobre todo, nada macabro.
El Confidencial@elconfidencial
El plan de Ucrania para aguantar un año más tiene un número mágico: matar 50.000 rusos al mes. Moscú recluta alrededor de 30.000 soldados al mes, por lo que Kiev debe infligir más bajas para inclinar la balanza en el frente y crear un problema interno dozz.es/apni41
