    Yeah it’s just so nakedly transparent how dishonest their posturing is about Europe not doing enough on defense.

    Turns out what they actually meant was “our entire economic system is predicated on infinite unending YoY growth targets, and we’ve run of ways to grow, so now you all have to start spending more money on feeding this fucking beast we created”.

    Also this theme of “how dare you take advantage of us all these years” is exactly the kind of talk domestic abusers use.

      The US was far from reaching the end of ways to grow, they just have to keep financing universities and public research then load it up to applied science and VC money…

      They got rid of research. They are getting rid of universities financing. They are emptying the pockets of VCs.

      Oopsy.
