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.”
I feel like a Latin American in the mid-'50s, reasonably well off but about to be sold like a pig at a fair. If we don’t take bold action in the next 30 years we’re only going to go downhill.
