I have decided to stop paying for my blue tick on X, as I have chosen to use X less and less. Reason is the absolute crapload of pro US govt. propaganda, the crapload of lies being peddled and the X algorithms favoring such over ACTUAL factual stuff. Interestingly, usually ChatGPT craps out when I ask it to write profanity.... seemingly not so much when I ask it to do it about X! LOL

A common MAGA claim is that the U.S. “pays for NATO” to the tune of roughly $650–$950B a year, and that Europe should therefore be grateful and offer concessions like handing over Greenland as “compensation.” That claim rests on a misleading comparison. The big number being cited is essentially the U.S. global defense budget, which covers worldwide responsibilities (Asia, the Middle East, nuclear forces, global naval and air operations, and more). It is not a measure of what the U.S. spends specifically to defend Europe. When you look at the actual costs related to defending Europe, the picture is very different: European countries fund the large majority of Europe’s defense spending and NATO’s European capabilities. In practical terms, Europe is paying for Europe’s defense. The U.S. does maintain forces and infrastructure in Europe, with an estimated cost on the order of about $45B per year. But even that is not a one-way subsidy. Europe also buys substantial amounts of U.S. military equipment, and those purchases can exceed $80B per year, sending significant revenue back into the U.S. defense industry and supporting American jobs and production. So the “U.S. bankrolls NATO, therefore Europe owes America Greenland” argument doesn’t hold up. It inflates U.S. contributions by treating global spending as if it were Europe-specific, ignores how much Europe pays itself, and overlooks how much of the U.S. outlay is offset by European procurement from U.S. suppliers.

Being a software nerd, I would like to offer (based on a different post I have seen) the fundamentals in programming for newbies.

It kind of went viral, showing the public opinion about the US absolutely idiotic and criminal idea to annex Greenland! Good for Greenland and good for Denmark!

The Trump administration are probably going all in, including military use, against Greenland. This video explans current events, where US debt could play a massive part in the current moves by USA. Its about US debt, bonds, collapse of the USD, collapse of the US finances and economy, hording ressources and potential world wide war. youtube.com/watch?v=3LcG_tJ0…

“Brave Behind a Screen” Oh look—our fearless thinker, thumbs ablaze with might, Found someone’s death and thought, “ Perfect—content tonight.” A cheap little joke, a smug little grin, Because empathy’s hard, but attention comes in. Renee Nicole Good—thirty-seven, a name, not a prop, A U.S. citizen—yet you still had to mock. Shot in the chaos when ICE moved in close, And you made it a punchline to farm for a post. You call it “just humor,” that tired old shield, While a family’s left standing in shock-stunned fields. And when people say, “That’s cruel,” you act so confused Like decency’s tyranny and you’re being “canceled,” not judged. Because to you it’s a show, a reality-bit game Not a life ended violently, not grief with a name. Policies, raids, that hardline machine: You don’t see the bodies—just the “discourse” and “scene.” So clap for yourself, king of the hollow remark, You’ve mastered the art of being loud in the dark. But here’s what your joke can’t manage to do: Make you look clever—only smaller, in full view. RIP
