Logical fallacies are like tricks or illusions of thought, and they're often sneakily used by the media, protagonists & antagonists to fool people. Ask...
@RemainerIn @ByDonkeys (One) As to what is the Nordics political economy. Comprehensive Welfare State: The Nordic countries offer extensive social safety nets, including universal healthcare, free or heavily subsidised education, generous unemployment benefits, and robust pension systems.
@Harley998112915@NorthBritannia@DavidLammy Incidentally, Yougov poll, 2023
The split of remain or leave EU was 55% versus 31% - which was a snapshot, as reasonable as any snapshot - sample size was 2151 adults.

@Harley998112915@NorthBritannia@DavidLammy In your (North Britannia): "I know, exactly like I knew most people didn’t support EU."
There are far more people in Britain's 66 million that you don't know than the rare few you know.
You could start with the ones that you know-march on the street to attract more support.
@1AverageCookie@StewMama71@NewYorker@TimothyDSnyder Trump has authoritarian tendencies but has yet to advocate for the total control that defines fascism. He has pushed the boundaries of democratic norms but hasn’t fully dismantled democratic institutions.
He focuses on economic protectionism -which diverges from liberalism.

@1AverageCookie@StewMama71@NewYorker@TimothyDSnyder As it stand now, Trump is best described as a populist - not fascism nor liberalism (these populists exist in the left, centre and middle).
Trump’s appeal to a disaffected base taps into economic anxieties, cultural fears, and anti-establishment sentiment in populism

@mr_dsantos@NewYorker@TimothyDSnyder The debate over whether Donald Trump is a fascist or has fascist tendencies hinges on how strictly one defines fascism and whether Trump's actions are seen as strategic populism or genuine authoritarian threats.
We shall see next year.
@mr_dsantos@NewYorker@TimothyDSnyder However, the solution isn’t necessarily to destroy the rich or those with fascist tendencies outright,

@frank_mgee@BeefCanon@NewYorker@TimothyDSnyder I asked why, did Marx have anything to do with that quote: "There is no evidence that Karl Marx ever said or wrote the quote in question." (Snopes)

@poslerevolucije@joni_askola On just costs and costs only: Germany did not face any significant costs before the war. Rather, its relationship with Russia and Ukraine was economically beneficial, especially in terms of cheap energy and trade.
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 Here, your egocentricity, Lammy does not work for you as an individual in the above national subject matter.
However, if you had a specific problem, and you went to his surgery, then he would have work for you (and you alone).

I don't think you should insult your negotiation partners. But you seem to suggest that if Trump does then it's fine for Lammy to do so as well. Which it is not. Because Lammy works for me and the rest of the British taxpayers and we want him to do the best he can for us. Which he does not to with childish insults.
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 Creative Deduction- I think I have done enough to introduce you to the benefits of moderation - as a normalisation method to your egocentricity.
"Double-edged sword" - Google for yourself.
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 AI says "Labeling Trump as a "neo-Nazi-sympathising sociopath" ahead of potential negotiations, especially for a high-ranking diplomat like David Lammy (now the UK's Foreign Secretary), is a double-edged sword in the realms of public accountability and international diplomacy."
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 You have now spun off a fantasy. You don't speak for Trump, you don't speak for us.
You used a false dichotomy - "is it a good idea?" ( a false binary) when other possibilities exist.
@giolzimoro@elon_docs@karatademada Potential challenges to watch out for for two independent people who are not beholden to anyone:-
Difficulty in compromising.
Risk of misalignment - solo action, they might have different expectations on how things should be done.
Reluctance to rely on each other.
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 Thanks, you don't speak for others - not in my name. You speak for yourself. You think what you like of Trump and Lammy.
I asked AI to arbitrate , attached. If you found what he (Lammy) actually said, I can use it to ask AI again.
@CreativeDeduct@fredwhiteden@jonlis1 You are flying off a tangent with obtuse remarks on kids.
AI said , as a moderator, whether such comments are juvenile , your own opinion only, or fair comment is largely subjective: -
