Two quotes that made my hair stand on end:
Vance’s message couldn’t have been clearer: Our way, or we’ll join Putin in hybrid warfare to roil your domestic politics — something billionaire Elon Musk has already done by boosting the prospects of the far-right Alternative for Germany party.
Kuleba: “In Paris, he literally said, ‘Don’t try to compete with us on AI. Embrace our companies, remove all the obstacles, and then everything will be fine.’ … Then he came here, and after attacking Europe’s economic model, he attacked its political model.”
We’ve finally lost the cold war.
Who would have known that the USians would fall for russian-style fascism after the soviets fell for US-style crapitalism :/
