Still no meaningful sanctions on Israel. The blood of this genocide is as much on the hands as those who could have done something to stop it but chose not to. Every single leader in the EU and USA will be remembered by history for this.
Just Germany doing German things…
What would the USA be in this scenario. Never forget the USS Liberty and remember that is was Israeli secret services that presented the “evidence of WMDs” to the GW Bush administration that got the USA embroiled in the Iraq war.
In a debate when the opponent can respond with nothing of substance and chooses to instead engage in pointless ad hominem attacks they have lost and I have won. I chose not to engage with your juvenile playground insults, they bore me.
Ok so first you accuse me of spewing drivel and an accusation that I believe in “bullshit propaganda” followed by an accusation that I am “trashy” whatever that means, I don’t speak American.
With all of this venom you were spitting I was assuming you were coming at me with some irrefutable proof of my fallacy, you sounded so confident!
What is this proof, hmm…An opinion piece from what looks to be a newsletter called “The Canada Files”, a group that for some reason reports exclusively on Canadian foreign affairs. I decided to have a read anyway and what I got was an article that had an almost unreadable style of prose due to the emphasis on the titles of characters and institutions tangentially related to the story to lend legitimacy. The “story” is light on evidence relying heavily on circumstantial claims. I actually looked at the “grey zone” piece it was based on and this was even worse. This is all just propaganda buddy and not even very convincing propaganda, it’s poorly written rubbish.
Now I’m trying to figure out if you are simple minded/poorly educated or are purposely trying to push poorly written propaganda? If it is the former, get educated before talking to the big boys. If the latter, get better at your job homie or you will be fired!
You were really struggling in your last response, I knew I had you! A passive aggressive stock response, delicious.
And my whole point, from the very start, that you were replying to was that it’s a tiny percentage of the overall energy mix
You would still be incorrect, almost 50% of electricity generation in the EU was from renewables. In China this figure was somewhere between 35-42%. Sort out your own house before you go knocking other people’s.
if Europe was actually serious about clean energy then it would be a lot higher
Imagine pontificating about what others do about clean energy while standing on a mountain of coal. China is the most polluting country in the world by about 3x the country in second place (USA) in terms of CO2 emissions. You dirty boys can sort your own polluted country before lecturing us in the EU you massive hypocrite. You are like a drug addict telling me to go easy on the sugar. I’ll take my advice from someone with a shred of credibility, you talk to me about dignity? Please! Also you telling me in your last comment that we can’t tell the Chinese what to do while you are telling us that we need to buy more solar panels from you, do you not understand what hypocrisy means?
Imagine being such an ignoramus to think that’s what China produces
The world was fine before China joined the WTO and we will be fine if we were to stop trading with them, China on the other hand certainly needs our money to sustain its economic growth. If growth stops in China the whole pyramid scheme collapses, China can’t afford to fight both the USA and the EU in a trade war, not with China’s massive and potentially crippling debt problem. Maybe if China didn’t do so many state subsidies they wouldn’t be in so much debt?
I don’t get how you think Trump is “running circles” around the EU, there is no evidence of this here. The EU has finally faced up to its position in the USA - EU alliance and has made promising steps to secure sovereignty while keeping trade with the USA going and money coming in. Is China somehow winning with a 30% drop in year on year trade and falling with it’s former biggest customer.
It’s not a false equivalence dummy. It’s the exact same thing. The fact that you’re trying to paint it as such is hilarious. You got caught lying loser.
I’m not sure if you are lying or just don’t understand that 70 year lease on every piece of land that is worthless at the end is the same as the government in Ireland doing a compulsory purchase order paying fair market value for your property if the land is needed for critical infrastructure. This is absolutely a false equivalency, only a lack of education would make someone think they were in any way similar.
You’re like a housecat that thinks that it owns the house.
And you guys in China got a sniff of money and now think you are royalty. There is nothing unique about the Chinese economy and now that China isn’t as cheap any more there is no incentive to buy from them any more. We will move the manufacturing of our cheap polluting plastic crap to Africa or India and if they get delusions of grandeur we can move it again.
Feel free to provide articles that anything changed. And here’s a more recent article for you to cope over
First you give me out of date articlesthat support the view of your echo chamber and now you present me with this unrelated crap. Big whoop, China is now liked more than the genocide supporting imperial scum Americans. Congratulations on winning the tallest dwarf competition! America does all of that bad stuff and China is still hated as much as America. You have literally presented me with an article about how hated both China and the USA are, congratulations.
We all know why the world dislikes China too, we haven’t forgotten China’s own ongoing genocide against its Uyghur people. All of China’s neighbours dislike China as a result of their squeaky voiced sabre rattling around the South China sea while building their little loser islands that nobody else acknowledges. Both China and the USA suck ass.
My whole point was that the EU buys plenty of solar and wind off China, you are making a show of yourself now looking for holes to pick in the argument that you already lost. You think I am lying by omission, I think you are moving the goalposts after losing the argument.
LMAO that’s not how it works Einstein. The idiots in EU can do idiot things inside the EU. They don’t get to tell Chinese people how to live.
I’m glad you find it funny but this is exactly how it works Einstein. The EU found China was subsidising it’s auto industry so they tariffed the Chinese auto makers that broke EU rules. It is not telling Chinese people how to live, live however you want but if you want to sell to us, which they clearly do they have to obey our rules. What do you even mean this is not how it works, this is what is happening right now, doesn’t matter if you believe it or not, lol.
But yes, you can certainly cut yourself off from the biggest industrial economy in the world and see how that works out for you.
This is grand, we will just buy our cheap plastic crap elsewhere, lol. We should have cut China off the minute they spat in our faces by supporting Russia, Chinese support is the only reason Russia is still in this war.
Oh man, wait till you learn about eminent domain.
You accuse me of lying by omission, I will raise you with a false equivalency. Compulsory purchase orders value property at current rates favourable to the land owner. Not the same thing as the Chinese government owning the land under you and being able to low ball your short remaining lease or not renewing your ground lease. My wife’s uncle had his house and garden bought by government CPO for £15 million in the 1990s, not a bad deal of you can get it.
You then give me a selection of 3-4 year old news articles about the Russian war as if we live in a vacuum and they are still relevant. Nothing changes more quickly than people’s opinions, your out of date articles are useless here buddy and don’t disprove the official voting record. If they make you feel better in your feelings go on ahead and keep reading your old articles.
You could even get 100% of your panels, it’s what total percentage of energy production that amounts to overall that matters.
Come on buddy, my 5 year old could formulate a better sentence than this. I can’t even make out what you are trying to say with your nonsensical drivel.
Absolutely incredible that needs to be spelled out for you. Let me try using an example that somebody with your mental prowess might be able to comprehend
Then you have the cheek to follow up your poor English with insults of my intelligence. The hypocrisy is hilarious.
but that’s still only 1% of your total power generation mix.
Do you ever get tired of being wrong, maybe try a bit of research before you open your mouth. Almost 50% of EU electricity generation in 2024 was from renewables.

Last I checked, China isn’t part of the EU.
Never said it was Einstein,
if they want to sell to the EU the rules apply and China is relying heavily on increasing EU trade now that the USA has tariffs on China.
You sure love providing sources for your claims. That’s what makes them so believable.
The only source you provided was a 4 year old article from a rag of tabloid, “Business Insider”, as if that held any weight or credibility. I do not count that as a particularly reliable source.
This article uses stats from UBS global wealth report 2025.
Chinese people’s high relative wealth is due to high property ownership rates in the country, about 90%. The people in China only actually own the buildingz the government owns all the land, leasing it out for 70 years at a time with no guarantee of renewal. In Ireland I own my house and the ground under it until I sell it.
When the whole world is your enemy, maybe you’re the problem
Incorrect again my friend, the UN votes on the Russian war proves this. Not even China votes to support Russia, they typically abstain like the cowards they are.
Smug eurotrash deserve everything that’s coming to you.
There is is, the chip on your shoulder, lol. Have a great day buddy.
like when you made the brilliant decision not to invest in solar and wind from China.
Starting off your response with false information from your previous comment that I already disproved is an interesting choice mate. Over 50% of China’s solar and wind exports go to the EU and the EU sources 98% of its solar panels from China. Doesn’t fit your world view though does it?
And you keep using this word, illegal, I don’t think it means what you think it means.
Illegal state aid, as in state aid that is against EU laws, keep up buddy, not that complicated!
China is absolutely dependent on energy imports. One business insider article from 2022 that compares China to Europe, including regions like Turkey that are not in the EU. The Chinese median wealth is close to the lower end of EU countries like Poland and Romania and nowhere close to the higher end which are 10-15 times higher than China. You’re a great man for the misinformation, nice try though!
The world is a very different place now to 5 years ago. China has shown by backing Russia in the war against Ukraine that they are an enemy to the EU. Expect more trade walls to go up between EU/USA and China as we divert our trade away from China over the next few decades. China shouldn’t have bitten the hand that feeds it, the rabid wolf warriors need to sit down.
EU is not really an export power in any meaningful sense
Are you sure buddy? The only powers who can compete with the EU by value are China and the USA. Come correct if you are going to bother at all.
Every block is free to run their internal economy as they see fit but every other block is also free to set rules on what it determines to be illegal state aid. Sticking to the example of cars but this is also true for other Chinese industries, the whole point of the Chinese illegal state aid is to corner the international manufacturing market degrading competitors manufacturing ability before then increasing the price to profitable levels.
Europe does not need to emulate China because China is not winning in any meaningful sense against Europe. China points to its impressive year on year GDP increases without acknowledging the low levels it started at. EU GDP per capita is still 3-4 times Chinese so even at their rapid rates of growth they will not come anywhere near EU levels in our lifetimes. This is before we even consider the difference in quality of life, Chinese workers regularly doing 996 schedules with the EU having a 40 hour workweek. The EU also has a better social safety net of unemployment, pension benefits, medical, worker legal protections, food safety, I could go on all day here.
The EU dependency on Russia for energy could have been described as stupid, the current dependency on the USA is a direct result of this previous bad decision and will not be rectified overnight.
he EU kept paying lip service to the idea of going green, but refused to invest into stuff like wind and solar because it came from China.
What are you on about, the EU has purchased more than 50% of China’s exports of solar panels and wind turbines , with 98% of the EUs solar panel imports coming from China. When you need to make stuff up to back up your point it’s probably not a very good one.
It is more than “racism and notions of white supremacy”, EU and China are both exporting and manufacturing powers. China recently moved into exporting the high value manufacturing products like cars which are a large part of the EUs economy making both blocks rivals.
The Chinese government is using state subsidies to tip the balance further in the favour of Chinese manufacturers. This is just one example from one industry, this pattern is repeated by China across the board. The government is well within its rights to do this but the EU is equally well within its rights to protect its own economy from a form of trade war. It is incredibly reductive to just play the racism card while ignoring the real issues.
Off to your safe space!
You keep on being delusional until reality hits you in the face.
Could say the same to you as Russia’s front lines collapse. Putin’s response is to shut off the internet, brave.
Don’t reply or I’ll have to block you if you annoy me more
I do what I want, you’ll tell me nothing. You Russia boys are a bunch of soft snowflakes. If you don’t want this conversation to continue all you have to do is not respond. Don’t give me cowardly meek threats, block away and protect your safe space if you need to, I don’t care.
You guys normally have a bit more fight in you, not used to you just laying down like this. I’m sure the long war has taken a toll on you and like the Russian soldiers on the front line you have decided to just give up.
I actually think Russia is close to the end. They have been getting meeker and meeker lately with their statements and the 2 week long mobile internet blackout in Moscow has been suspicious to say the least…
Yes your videos of some dude putting up a flag somewhere should count just as much as the peaceful transfer of power in 3 democratic elections. Your propaganda points are absolute slop my man, try harder.
You seem to think that the Ukrainian government is murdering civilians in a vacuum in eastern Ukraine. Have some balls and acknowledge the Russian “little green men” campaigns with the girkin and his band of fools who ended up shooting down a commercial passenger plane with Russian supplied weaponry. You won’t though because you are a coward. The USA was not the only country messing around with Ukrainian sovereignty.
helped expediate the decline of the US,
Good
made Russia stronger
Lol, by draining their sovereign wealth fund, stocks of weaponry and the blood of their people when they are already in a demographic crisis. Delicious copium.
forged alliances between many countries
Who, north Korea? Haha. China are not allied to Russia and neither are India. Russia has lost Venezuela and Syria as allies and Iran are now finding out that being allied to Russia is worthless.
I’m also not from Israel or the USA, they are baby killers true just like Putin. All cut from the same cloth, imperial scum the lot of them.
Ukraine had a fascist coup
I must have missed that one, maybe one man’s popular revolution is another man’s fascist coup. The numbers who participated in the protests turned revolution in Ukraine in 2014 are estimated at between 400,000-800,000.
You call it a fascist coup but how come power has peacefully and democratically changed hands 3 times since? Doesn’t really make sense now does it buddy? Now, how many times has power changed hands in Russia in the same timeframe?
You are peddling the same tired talking points from 4 years ago, even Putin and his stooges have stopped using them because they sound ridiculous. The biggest cause of NATO expansion is Russia’s belligerence, where it not for this war, Finland and Sweden would never have joined NATO.
Many things wrong with Putin, imperialism is not one of them.
Just because his imperialism doesn’t bother you it doesn’t make his imperialism ok, I am definitely against it.
This is not some comic book battle between good and evil, it is perfectly possible for both USA, Israel and Russia to be evil, they are all expansionist imperial entities currently engaging in imperial land grabs. I would say they are all evil.
Ukraine and Iran were just minding their own business when the imperialists attacked. USA, Russia and Israel are all on the same shitty side of the coin. The rest of the world hates the lot of them.
How many times have the Russians captured Kostiantynivka now, I’ve lost count.
Interesting that the Russians are now discussing the possibility of Putin and Zelensky meeting. When did they change the script on this?
