Canada

That's the problem when all our tech comes from China and they're blatantly not trustworthy or even really trying to pretend they are. There's no real option to keep buying from them, no matter the circumstances.

Europe needs to pivot to being heavily Eurocentric, protecting basic necessities, arming ourselves and moving towards supplying ourselves with everything possible. Let Ukraine into the EU and maybe have to abandon the invaded part. Trade with friendly countries, divest from trade with asshole countries and buckle up while the US/China/Russia probably attack weaker targets and make their asshole riviera.

We can't keep relations as we have with countries which are not compatible with our Democratic values. All that's happening is that countries with shitty ideals are using our openness and spirit of cooperation to manipulate and indoctrinate our people. That's what's happened in america and even if america rights itself somehow, it will go unpunished and almost unacknowledged like all the other shit.

We should set up some kinds of rules for engagement with other countries. Shitty actions, whether towards their own people or not, incur automatic trade penalties and other punishment. If these are open and standardized it can serve as a preventative. This all has to be presented publicly so low education people can understand what is going on and why. Im not advocating for censorship but there should be fact checking/ certifications that its not total shit - on EU news sources - and warnings on non-EU media etc, so people know it's probably shit. Also we should allow reasonable Americans and others with our values to live and work in europe without all the usual BS.
