The overton window has shifted so much again that the former political ‘enemy’ of greens and leftists somewhat morphed into an ally for representative democracy, rule of law and dare I say ‘international cooperation’?

That’s diplomatic of you, but those house locks and your wife’s autonomy invited the home invaders in the first place. You have to be more preemptive about this.

Where should the 200-300 billion for Germany for example come from? Don’t say debt, because that is not answering the question since it is not sustainable.

Europe could become a desert and this would still be in the “news”. Climate change is terrible at direct policy change motivation so far, it happens more indirect by deinfrastructuring and then people don’t want to make the connection.
