I just finished watching it and the main point/thesis was that Europe needs to be hesitant to proceed with these laws curtailing speech/expression. And he sharply criticized Romania for cancelling the results of a free election.

Isnt free speech perhaps the single most fundamental liberal principle out there?

Today’s Democrats aren’t liberals.

They’re Marxists.

They don’t believe in free speech.

Dems/Libs are embarrassed at the concept of America First.

Free speech is absolutely protected in Europe. Just don’t say anything that’s not truthful or offensive.

The fact that people can actually square those two statements and accept them is scary AF.

Bc he’s from the wrong side. Thats how bad the left has become. They deserve zero respect or consideration when they sky scream over nothing.

Liberals are mad in general. Add the fact they live with TDS, you have your answer.

They are not liberals.

You will probably find that real liberals like Dennis Kucinich and Jimmy Dore agree with JD's speech.

He referenced both Right and Left wing parties that were excluded from being invited to the Security meeting. This included the AFD which most brainwashed Germans associate with Hitler loving extremists. They have been shamed all their lives for the atrocities of ww2 and any indication of nationalism is auto-attacked as nazi! Beautiful country, lived there many years, great people, but the trauma of ww2 hinders most of them from seeing the light.

Chicken needs to install that Irony font. I would have used it for the first paragraph.

The AFD is mostly the rural states within Germany. You’d be foolish to think they are a small vocal minority. My German friends who live in the states are all supporting the AFD.

The last thing the left/Europe wants is a strong America, led by an administration that puts its interests first. They want the globalist WEF agenda first, paid for by the US taxpayer.

Germany loved Obama. Hating Vance means we are on the right track.
