I’ve been a proud supporter of nothing but Faxe Kondi since the orange clown got into office. Pretty much looked over all of my consumption habits… something I should’ve done before but rather late than never

I suppose it may be time to expand the 30% tariff retaliation to anything owned by US companies.

I have a lot of monetarily worthless stuff that means a lot to me. Souvenirs from trips, some heirlooms from my grandparents, stuff like that. Not gonna be worth anything in insurance but means a lot to me… it’s a dumb take that theft isn’t a crime.

I definitely disagree we’re seeing as terrible rise of fascist ideology; oligarchs controlling the flow of information on the internet is the biggest threat towards human existence.

I wouldn’t even say I’m a regular right-winger, or any kind of wing really, I mainly simply don’t believe in the effectiveness of extremes.

What nations would you consider “properly” socialist? Isn’t a prerequisite for achieving acommunist society a period of socialist government preparing the people’s spirits? Also, even 'socialism" is a spectrum; if any government with progressive taxes is “socialist” then yes, you have plenty of states you can include. Mind you, I’m from Scandinavia - a region often mentioned as an example of socialist policies - but the system is fundamentally capitalist for better and worse.

Sorry if I’m projecting a bit too much onto you! I don’t like capitalism, but I don’t find it realistic or achieveable to rid yourself of it in a meaningful way; history has shown that a new upper class emerges once the heads of the former have been cut off. Power. It’s human nature and it always will be. The best bet is to compromise and pressure capitalist systems as much as possible. Which camp am in?

I don’t know who “you guys” are; I’m not American at least. I have a more specific definition of “socialism” than just living under a system that taxes the rich and has a degree of national control over the means of production

Most moderate anything government doesn’t even begin to come anywhere close to the control of a “radical” leftist state.

What is your basis for “radical” leftists standing for human rights? Radical leftists are rarely liberally minded. I don’t disagree that many left-wing parties stand for decency, environmental protection, and various rights - but “radicals” do not.

Of course fascists are bad and can go fuck themselves - but not all “right wingers” are fascists.

Socialist regimes are inherently fond of surveillance. Indiviuals can have any given stance on it. Politically involved people - minus fascists - tend to have stances against surveillance and for data protection.

There’s a lot of nuance inbetween “capitalist” and “anti-capitalist”. I’m not here to defend capitalism but this black-and-white worldview often held by self-proclaimed left-wingers is offputting to the very masses that they claim to represent to such a degree that the working class would rather shoot themselves in the foot by voting for fascists and fascist-adjacents rather than support “crazy leftists”. In the modern age it’s an ideology of a lot of talk and studies and very few results.

And how do you ensure that the “radical left” doesn’t support surveillance measures? Not like the ideology has a good track record on that matter.

“No true Scotsman”.

We don’t have to think in political leanings following the left-right paradigm. Parties and persons considered “leftist” aren’t inherently good, nor is the other side inherently bad. Don’t limit yourself by identifying with just one ideology. In case you didn’t realise, socialists tend to like surveillance as well

Do what exactly? Seems to me like EU leaders are working overtime behind the curtains. Better than also introducing stupid tariffs. Don’t fight stupid with stupid.

Hahahah cute

Taking issue with a tax on cheap Chinese goods is an interesting hill to die on

As a Dane in Sweden mostly watching European productions this is always so hilarious to me. It’s pretty cool though, we should be exposed to each other more!

Nordisk Film does the same so there’ll be a token Danish actor in Swedish productions too, like in Helikopterrånet.

I guess they’ll also stop disneyfying European folklore then… can’t wait for a Little Mermaid movie with HC Andersen’s actual plot!

Not just Western dominance. American dominance. We need to rid ourselves of these corporations, even in Western Europe.

And all these shit companies directly supported Trump because they loved his “lower taxes hur dur” etc approach… now suffer!

Jeg har købt det nye koreanske soulslike-spil “The First Berserker: Khazan” til PS i weekenden som jeg nu kæmper mig i gennem. Det er mega fedt hvis man kan lide den slags!

Absolutely! Homegrown veggies and living in a wooden hut is the answer!

No, but avoiding the worst of the worst like Mondelez and Nestlé is reasonable… Storck aren’t that bad

Hans Island in the Arctic for Denmark and Saint Pierre and Miquelon, which is a small island off the eats coast of Canada, which remains a part of France.

I love me some Turkish Peber too! Although it’s owned by Fazer now, which is Finnish - but it was originally Danish. Whether they still have some production in Denmark though, I don’t know

Name a more iconic duo than snack manufacturers and ethical issues…
