I have a feeling theres a lot of EU trolls trying to influence opinion all over the internet. I've been seeing posts and social media that are hyping up the EU as "finally standing up for itself" and becoming a superpower for the past few weeks now.
look all the NAFO people need something to do now that Ukraine gig is over
Yeah, probably hoping for some clandestine EU funding now that USAID is done paying them.
I still don't quite understand why they shut down USAID, wasn't it one of the most influential ways for the US to spread their propaganda?
The best explanation I saw which makes sense from the perspective of the US ruling class, is that they are very aware that they can't sustain the empire the way they have over the past decades, and are scaling it back to consolidate what they've got. They aren't all stupid/incompetent, they're just finding ways to delay the inevitable for as long as possible.
In the last three years they were super busy handling all their power to USA and inhaling boot and now they realised they have none left so they are pouring last thing they have, money, into soft power. Also i'm more and more convinced all the feddit instances are really led by some feds like the reddit country subs.
Lmao, let them try. Every single popular social media platform and website in the west is run by US tech oligarchs, there is literally no chance that the EU somehow manages to oppose US hegemony on the US's own channels.
So far the only thing they managed to convey is the Trump derangement syndrome.
