My voice seems to be unique in this world. Please reply if you are as unique as me .
I want a strong but reformed Europe with a direct elected president, with pan European election lists for the European parliament. I also want more power for Regions and less for countries.
I am against migration from outside Europe, especially from muslims, because I believe we are a continent with Christian and secular roots.
Technology and embodied AI can replace the need for migration and create abundance.
Bureaucracy must be kept to the bear minimum and must always be under the control of the democracy.
Full freedom of speech.
Laws and regulations with an expiration date, a maximum length, and may never be combined.
We can have a welfare state, but not at the cost of blocking innovation. Exceptional people deserve exceptional income. Extra commitment must be rewarded.
Families are the future of our continent.
Europe should tax multinationals for European infrastructure and defense.
I believe in Climate change, but we need to be optimistic and pragmatic. A change in technology can save us from climate change as well as economic downfall.
Trade with any country regardless of their policy will enhance the world because it causes wealth for everyone thus removing the need for migration.
Trade needs fair tarrifs because we never again want to be dependent of any enemy or allie. Tarrifs need to be calculated on the % of self sufficiency. Not on a political or other belief.
Europe needs to be self sufficient in times of need. We need agriculture which can feed the whole of Europe. We need to be able to build ships of any kind, so we always can trade with and explore all possible destinations without the help of allies.
I strongly believe in peace through strength. We need a European army which doesn't need NATO.
We must be independent and be able to change alliance if needed.
We must never set foot into Russia, but we don't have us be bullied by them. Ukraine with the de facto borders of March 2025 is the last expansion of Europe. Belarus is Russia. We need a long difficult to defend border between Europe and Russia so both are discouraged to again start a war.
Elon Musk says the only people qualified to police a frontier AI model are the competitors trying to beat it:
"My recommendation to Demis, because I talked to him for a few hours before he published his piece, was that the most immediate thing that we could do is to have the leading AI companies at least just meet or have some sort of call once every few weeks and just discuss safety and security issues."
"That's where I think the competitors can keep each other honest."
"I think it's quite difficult for someone in the government who doesn't have a deep technical understanding and isn't driving the frontier of AI to know whether something should be released or not."
"However, the competitors, if given sort of a week or two to review a new model, can highlight issues. All the competitors have an incentive to keep the others honest."
"So you'd have a system where the model makers would check each other's work."
"That would be the moment for government to step in and take action."
He has a point. The people building these models are just about the only ones who can tell how dangerous one really is. A regulator who has never trained a model cannot make that call.
Will rivals reviewing rivals hold up over time? Nobody knows. It has never been tried.
And the alternative today is nothing. No calls between the labs, no review windows, nobody outside a lab looking at a model before it ships.
So run the reviews. Even an imperfect check beats what exists now, and it would be the first real piece of the assurance layer that still has to be built.

P.S. That missing assurance layer is what the AI Assurance & Governance Summit 2026 is being built around. On October 1 at the Stanford Faculty Club in Palo Alto, https://t.co/mShrGGY5oC brings frontier labs, regulated industries, insurers, investors, and researchers into one single-track room for exactly this question.

@de_NVA@MDiependaele Op welke manier dan ook, we hebben minder overheid en administratie nodig. Of we keren terug naar een unitair België, of we zetten door met die Vlaamse onafhankelijkheid. Maar de huidige puinhoop van administraties, regeringen en gewesten is gewoon te duur.
The EU deleted my TikTok account with one WhatsApp message.
175,000 followers, gone overnight without a warning. The European Union has a hotline to TikTok headquarters. Brussels sends a name, and minutes later the account is gone. Anyone who is anti-immigration, anti-elite, or anti-establishment is on the list.
This is how far we have fallen.
@jurgen_nauditt It's not Trump's fault that there's not enough stock of Patriots, though his Iran war didn't help. The previous governments of the USA did like the fact that Europe was weak, and actively encouraged Europe to go to sleep...
Dit scherm is het graf van de Europese democratie.
314 parlementsleden stemden tégen.
Een duidelijke meerderheid.
Toch werd Chat Control doorgedrukt.
Niet omdat de meerderheid dat wilde, maar omdat een proceduretruc de stemmen van verkozen volksvertegenwoordigers waardeloos maakt.
Onze democratie is geen democratie meer.
Dit beeld is historisch.
Niet omdat het een stemming toont, maar omdat het een kantelpunt markeert.
Noem het geen democratie als de meerderheid er niet meer toe doet.
Meer dan €18miljard Vlaams belastinggeld verdwijnt elk jaar in subsidies‼️
Jaar na jaar wordt die berg groter.En wanneer de Vlaming eindelijk kan controleren waar z’n geld naartoe gaat,beslist Ben Weyts(N-VA)om de jaarlijkse publicatie van het subsidieregister tegen te houden‼️
+3 miljoen euro aan subsidies voor een paardenevenement dat mee georganiseerd wordt door Golazo Sports, "een privébedrijf dat jaarlijks een omzet van 50 miljoen euro draait en op het einde van de rit 7 miljoen euro winst maakt." Michel Francken is CEO van Golazo. Michel is de broer van Theo. Zal wel toeval zijn. 🤫
@tscheldt@petervanlimpt6 "Er is een mega-begrotingstekort en dito staatsschuld. Iemand moet het betalen."
Ja?
En ALS de belastingbetaler betaalt? Dan is er volgend jaar weer een GROTER tekort.
Enzovoort.
De enige oplossing is ZWAAR snoeien in de uitgaven, te beginnen met subsidies aan NGO's.
