Thanks for this piece of blatant propaganda. The Center for European Policy Analysis (CEPA) almost sounds like CEPS, the Centre for European Policy Studies, which is a European think tank comprised of former European politicians. But it isn‘t European at all. On the board are American industrialists, including policy advisers from Meta and other industries. Keep in mind that Germany is after the US the biggest supplier of weapons to Ukraine. If the Americans want to wipe their hands off of Ukraine, don‘t accuse us of being complacent.

Great non-ideological analysis.

This has been going on for a while:

So you‘re saying Coy‘s analysis so precisely defines capitalism it amounts to calling for its abolishment and therefore contradicts the Times‘ official stance?

if he didn’t advertise himself as Führer

What? He was elected because he kept stumm.

wow, as you just proved

Yeah, let‘s discuss it.

I think considering history and present one must be mad to come up with such an idea.

On the other hand: We’re not even discussing finding an agreement. It’s a bit like a taboo, too.

And: because we’re not winning, does it mean we have to escalate?

It‘s pretty disgusting how dumb they think the public is. On the other hand reading the responses of the public to this lie…they might be on to something.

I think he might be even a communist!

Do you think we deal differently with it in the West and do you think it is morally more appropriate?

True

also looking at those countries we can see it isn’t a permanent fix though. Capitalists don’t stop fighting and will be successful in the long run

Also, it didn’t work out so well

A democratic state allows its citizens to pursue their private interests. This is only possible though if this is happening in a legal framework, so that the private interests of one citizen don‘t infringe upon the ones of another. The outcome of this consideration then is the abstraction (the specific applied to the universal) of the free will of the citizens. We call it freedom and justice. Others call it the free market.

that‘s a bunch of false equivalences

At first you got to have a good analysis of how society and the economy works. Unfortunately this already is a tricky thing, because not everybody agrees.

yes, I also don‘t believe in the nation‘s interest, yet it somehow pretty brutally exists. Something‘s got to grow, somethings got to give.

I think you are on the right track with your ideals of the world, but I also guess you kinda know that this is not how states operate. Of course there are different types of states, but if you think of democracies, they are also not service providers to their citizens. On the contrary. Democratic states are the abstraction of all the private interests of their citizens. This is what they protect and advance. What arises out of that is that occasionally these interests will suggest a war is what the nation desires.

How is it even possible. We‘ve been killing them forever, and never seen a baby shark?

Ah! Secret EU plan against Orban! Well FT, if you don‘t produce more of this document, and any kind of proof that this is more than a research paper, I call BS. There is so little in this article supporting the monstrous claim that the EU is secretly planning to devalue Hungary‘s currency, that I get the feeling that this is the expression of an anti EU agenda by the FT itself. There you go, that‘s my monstrous assumption.
