    The sooner EUrope has a firm handle on its own IT ecosystem, the sooner it can tell the US to go pound sand. Macron is spot on.

      Macron is on the cusp of handing off the government to the far right that will try and fix themselves in power permanently, and busy crushing any popular reform that would preclude that far right from winning eventually based on being the only real protest vote.

      So easy with the Spot On bit. Macron is a disgrace and a failure just as Starmer is, which will become clear in time to even the thralls of our corporate media.

    Macron is 100% right about Big Tech algorithms crushing supposed “free speech.” You don’t even have to think about offensive or controversial opinions here.

    On Facebook, all of your friends are effectively shadowbanned – buried – behind an unending stream of AI-generated garbage videos. You don’t have freedom of any speech in a room where a loudspeaker is blaring garbage at you 24/7.
