You clearly don’t understand how hypocritical this is. We coerced Europe into being this way. It’s only in the last 10-15 years or so that we started asking them to contribute more militarily.
Our strategy against the Soviets was for Europe to hold them off while the US brought over an expeditionary force that would push the Soviets back. Europe would provide most of the financial support.
Now some Americans are acting like they ripped us off. Just more backstabbing fake grievance bullshit designed to slander democracies because democracy and pluralism are the enemy now.
From a pure realpolitik point if view, alienating Europe while they’re beginning their next rearmament era is a pretty fucking stupid move. They have three times our population and it wasn’t that long ago that Europe had the strongest militaries in the world. If they reach that point again the US will not be the global hegemon anymore and Americans won’t like that because we’ve benefited from it economically. Though at this point it’s very clear the world is better off with saner hegemony under other countries.
We’ll be falling behind China in science and engineering soon enough too. China, the EU and various middle powers are all making moves to fill the soft power hole left by the current administration. All because dipshit magas only believe in hard power and bullying people like cavemen.

I understand people’s concerns about AI but it’s getting harder to take them seriously when half of their concerns are just made up speculation.
AI clearly needs stronger regulation, however all these people constantly spreading their just-so story criticism of it aren’t helping.
