it's war by a different means

Sanctions are pussy shit, they do nothing if a country simply leans back and doesn't care.

tell china that? tell Venezuela that. tell cuba that tell every country that the usa has done that to that. see where they're know compared to where they could of been or where they were before that

the cold war was sanctions on the ussr

China is actually proof that sanctions only have an effect on countries that care

right now we are in a cold war with china

Yeah and the US is not gonna win that war

but they are. because the majority of people that buy Chinese products are american. the majority of countries that have production lines in china are americans

But that misses the main point. The EU has no actual power, it can only negotiate. If a negotiation fails, the EU can do nothing.
What really fails the EU countries is - guess what - the leadership of those individual countries. Not the EU.

their power is the other states that are in it. which is why they want an army

The EU won't have an army, the people won't allow that.

the heavy hitters do

germany france

They can, individually, give the EU an army, but not to control other EU member nations.

i'm not saying it's going to happen btw just saying they're trying

No country can be forced to partake in the EU army, or to be ruled under the EU.

So it is effectively not an EU army. It's a coalition.

if that happens then. the eu gives them fines or puts sensations on them

They can try all they want, it won't happen. The people aren't welcoming of the idea of an EU country.

I asked people from several EU countries, all generations young and old. The response is a 'no'.

That includes some of the most progressive- or SJW-minded people

it's not up to the individual people. its there reps that get the say

Yeah nah, won't happen. Too much voting power within the countries, still.

majority of eu countries have populist systems?

Anyone who goes against the will of the people will wish to have never tried it.

wtf is a populist system?

look at germany. and what happen with there recently. they can be considered fascist now

Not really, no

populism = a voting style like canada

The MSM love to paint the AFD as fascist, but it's not

i never got my info from msm

Well anyway, that's the general propaganda trend

Merkel is far more fascist than the AFD imo lul

What about NPD?

lol you serious? you can't just say something is propaganda because you dont agree with it

What about them?

Are they fascist or are they just portrayed by the MSM as such

I don't just "disagree", I know the AFD is not fascist, because fascists don't like democracy, they like collectivism, they like dictatorships. The AFD doesn't want that.

They're only being portrayed as fascist, it's all propaganda

i listened to her speech. i saw the riots and the protest. i saw they were hurting the party that won. The guy had to step down because he feared for his life. mother hitler said it will never happen again because we will never give them power because we're changing the laws on the,
