Well at least it's hundreds in a bunch of cities and not hundreds across all cities. But to be honest, orange man and his swastikar wankbuddy aren't the first thing I would go out on a protest for atm.

Yeah totally, but it makes looking at his work less fun than it used to be. Probably will be like that the next time I see a Ghibli film.

I ask because I'm sure I want more European integration but am not sure about the way forward. It would make more sense if all levels had a similar election proces. Now I vote for my the leaders of the city in it, but in the Netherlands we don't vote for our mayor. Then I also vote for the province, same story that the leader of the provincial government is always a neutral politician. But the provinces vote for the parlement (the part that doesn't propose new laws but the part that approves them). Then I also vote for a person in the national elections, but this person is always part of a party although you don't for the party. If your party wins, they can choose the prime minister. Although now for the first time ever the mayor party was forced by their coalition parties to have a neutral prime minister. Then I vote for someone a person in the EU, who is in a party which itself is in a party so even though my vote influences the flavour of the European government but it feels a bit off. I mean, europe considers itself an example of the democratic world but it feels like such a mess at the same time.

This guy is a genius, but lately all of his stuff looks like it could have been done by ai. Still have his site as a bookmark. Here's more if anyone wants: https://www.jamesfridman.com/edits

Last paragraph sums it up for those looking for a quick snack:

"The claim that a trade war with the US is best avoided is valid. But Trump has already started the war. The real question then is whether Europe should surrender without a fight, hoping for the unlikely benevolence of the victor (and validating its disdain for a weak and divided EU), or whether it should fight back, while remaining open to negotiation, in order to truly seek a solution to the trade war. Bending the knee to the tyrant will most likely encourage the tyrant to ask for more. Therefore, if the aim is to end an economically devastating conflict as quickly as possible, the EU must risk responding in kind to US tariff aggression."

Do you live in one of those countries and if so, do you think you can stack more layers of government of top of the current one or will it breaks the system? I can image adding layers to the bottom is much easier than adding one on top.

Thanks good tip, based in Sweden I see. And from their about page: "We do not believe in generic products manufactured under marginalized conditions." Cool.
