@RnaudBertrand Interesting, but how do you explain that China was not more successful earlier in modern times then ? And nevertheless, westerners also « get things done »
@percheun Je ne comprends rien à cette histoire de grenadine et je n’ai même pas envie de lire. À gauche tout est limpide, concis. Je pense que cette confusion provient aussi du cerveau de mauvais pédagogues.
@Dr_RShatsky I had not realised all this stupidity had spilled over beyond vaccines. At least, it has not much in Europe yet. But I am worried now. This is just tragic - and must be unbearable as an oncologist too. Did they not have at least a doubt about their pseudo therepeutics?
This is absolutely extraordinary and beyond parody:
A reporter rightly asks Von Der Leyen "What are the US concessions? What is the US giving up in the deal"
VDL's reply is that there was none because "the starting point was an imbalance, a surplus on our side, and a deficit on the US side [so] we wanted to rebalance the trade relation."
This is who we have negotiating on the EU's behalf: someone so thoroughly captured she's repeating almost word for word Trump's insane rhetoric that trade deficits are somehow proof America is a victim that deserves compensation.
🇺🇸🇪🇺- To the most well versed in EU law - is this legally still a trade agreement when there are, apart from the tariffs, “commitments” to buy energy, invest etc? What is the exact legal format and framework of all this, beyond coms? @rupertschlegelm@sonderweg45 and all with 💡
@sc_cath Encore des règles débiles, incompréhensibles. Avec des effets imprévisibles lorsque l’on touche à une pièce de l’édifice kafkaïen où chaque règle a mille exceptions. Qui peut accepter d’être gouverné par ces gens ?
Stunning piece in the NYT showing how the US and China's embrace of fossil fuels and cleantech respectively suggest diverging views on global domination
Phenomenal visuals in there too - check out these two charts

At some point we’ll have to make measles vaccination mandatory for US residents travelling to the EU…Seriously we can’t bear the cost of their official anti-science, life-threatening stupidity
JUST IN: California has already reported more measles cases this year than in all of 2024. The U.S. is facing its worst outbreak in decades, per the LA Times.
Great job, MAGA.
Alors même que la communauté scientifique s’effraie des records des deux dernières années, la température de surface de la mer Méditerranée atteint des niveaux exceptionnellement élevés, jamais observés à une fin juin.
En perdant son rôle de régulateur thermique, la mer ne parvient plus à tempérer les températures, promettant un été – et surtout des nuits – particulièrement éprouvants en Méditerranée, avec en toile de fond des impacts écologiques silencieux mais dévastateurs.
