Thing is, even devoutly Christians in Europe can't relate to their US equivalents. They're way different.

Canada is also a member of the Commonwealth, so the UK would pretty much be forced to go to war against the US if Canada was invaded.

Ericsson, the most corrupt shit company in Sweden. Yes, Ericsson is Swedish, yet is still in this list.

Ah, did not know this! Thanks. I tried to look through their website to find info on where the guitars are made nowadays but couldn't really find anything.

A bit pricy, bit there is Strandberg Guitars which AFAIK are made in Uppsala, Sweden.

It is real and my biggest concern right now is that European politicians seem so quiet about this. This conversation, including Rubio's comment, is scandalous.

Capitalism-lover hates competition. Interesting.

Ha, that's really interesting. Swedish has an interesting example of this as well.

Plural you ("y'all", basically) used to be "i", but because of an archaic inflection rule, there were often an "n" at the end of a word before "i" (like, "när kommen i?"; "when are y'all coming?"). Because of this, "i" eventually turned into "ni" since the n of the previous word merged with i.

If the US wants to be involved or not is up to you guys, that's fair. It's our cause, first and foremost. But what Trump is doing now is not "not getting involved". He is actively sabotaging and siding with Russia. I'd be fine if he just shut up and minded his own business, but he is very much involved right now and even says Europe should not take part in negotiations. So on the one hand, he says it's Europe's cause, but on the other, he acts like it's his his own cause. It's once again Trump being Trump.

This is false, the EU donated more than the US. Trump says otherwise, yes, but he is lying.

Nuclear war is exactly what Trump is risking right now. Russia will go to war again if Trump gives them "peace". Only next time, they will attack a NATO country.

Because Russia did not want peace. "Why are Russia interested in a peace deal now then?", you might ask. Because Trump is not going to negotiate them a peace "deal". He is going to give them victory.

Depends on how many you follow. Lemmy is way more dead than Mastodon for me.

 

Lars Wilderäng is a Swedish author and blogger. Quick overview: his topics generally revolve around defence policies (Russia bad, moar defence), economics (low interest rates bad, housing market speculation bad) and since the war started, the war in Ukraine (send Ukraine moar weapons). He hates Elon Musk but loves his Tesla. He hates ICE cars.

He's unfortunately one of the "EVs will solve everything" people, which annoys me greatly, but today I saw a small car-related comment on his blog that actually made me laugh.

Oh and sorry for the misspelled "cyclists".
