It’s a good move and I wholey support digital sovereignity, but it’s not enough to convince me that they’re actually breaking free. Wake me up when they actually start seizing facilities.
/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

It’s fascinating that you think his has nothing to do with the trade war with China. Just a coincidence.
This shit isn’t even secret! It’s out in the fucking open that Trump is pressuring allies against China!
The genocide is the tip of the iceberg, the US lurks in the background of all current events. The US is forcing Europe to do austerity to pay for war with Ukraine and to buy US gas, Europe is basically being turned into an export colony for the US and so they aren’t allowed to trade with China. The dollar is the global reserve currency!
Do you just think the aanti-China sentiment in Europe is happening all on its own? You can’t just ignore the elephant in the room.
It’s the global hegemon? The US rules the world, that’s why the UN is powerless to stop a genocide.
Have the Dutch seized any US facilities?
Seems to me that Europe is picking its side.
The US has to constantly reinforce its control over its vassals or they will start thinking about independence.
The US is yanking Europe’s leash to keep them from getting ideas.
Do you think China will want to keep doing business with someone that steals their shit?
No, you basically just accused other instances of being hysterical leftists that think everyone is a fascist.
A more accurate characturized way to describe them is reddit.world
It’s very obvious that dependency on the US is bad, though. Why not avoid complete dependence on one or the other?
No, the US is just pressuring all of its vassals into disinvestment from China to secure its own power. That’s it.
Dependency on financing trade in USD, dependency on US fossil fuels, dependecy on proprietary US technology, dependency on the US military-industrial complex, dependecy on US border and surveillance technologies, etc etc.
The US fosters dependency in all its allies to maintain the empire. China, and the BRICS bloc in general, offers an alternative. That’s why the US is forcing all its vassals to turn on China.
Israel does not have a right to exist.
All this does is make them more dependent on the US; this will only hurt them in the long run.
She has always supported US intervention in Venezuela and supports Trump bombing boats. That’s it.
She dedicated her prize to Trump.
No he doesn’t. He can just make shit up! That’s what he’s doing to send soldiers to US cities, after all.
The hardware is specialized for chatbots, it’s not just something they can plug-and-play for other use cases. That means using it for other computing tasks is even less efficient per kWh and per litre of water, which will make it hard to justify the resource requirements.
Surely some of this hardware can find new life, but assets will be stranded.
The most optimistic take I’ve seen: AI is a drain on the entire economy that sucks up all investment and this is why the rest of the economy is basically in a recession. Once the bubble pops, investors will flood back into the real economy and correct the problem.
I’m not optimistic.
I think China will continue to increase trade with the third world and leave Europe behind if doing business becomes unprofitable. Why would they bother investing if it’ll just get stolen? If you want to talk about realpolitik, the US wants its vassals in a state of dependency and doesn’t want them having a relationship with its rival. More realpolitik:
The US literally does all of this, in addition to election manipulation and propaganda peddling, and (in addition to the new trade war angle) that’s how it pressures allies into dumping China. This all fits into the new Cold War, how do you not see it?
