Since the #Trump administration declared #Europe the new enemy of the #USA, we should answer in kind.
Since the only language Trump speaks is #Capitalism, let's speak capitalism to him. Consumers are the only power in a capitalistic system. Excluding the USA from the conversation will speak volumes.
I for my part buy anything BUT US-Brands. Indefinitely.
The app "BuyEuropean" as a neat little helper in this endeavour.
Don't let them degrade you to a pet and train you to perform tricks.

How to quit Spotify: a guide from Brian Merchant.
He's gone with Qobuz, a platform that I'm also running with. I'd love to try Coda, as they claim to give artists the most money; I've listed my favourite music-streaming platforms on a page: garden.pivic.com/music/music-s… - please let me know if I've missed a good platform that treats musicians like human beings.
While places like Spotify and Tidal are overrun by AI slop, Qobuz feels *clean*.

@pluralistic on billionaire preppers:
"If your contribution to society consists of “allocating capital” and/or giving people orders, what, exactly, is the disaster that fulfills your fantasy of a world where your unique skills are the only thing that can save us all? What kind of disaster needs a boss?”
"#Epstein’s human trafficking organization depended entirely on the wealth management industry (WMI). It was how he obtained the capital to build it, and it was how he hid his activities from the authorities. And none of this was an abuse of the industry; it is precisely how the WMI is designed to work. Nor is it an abuse of the law, because both American and international law has been carefully designed to accomodate the WMI."

Capitalism Enabled Jeffrey Epstein’s Crimes
The strategies Jeffrey Epstein used to hide the money funding his sex trafficking organization were perfectly legal. In fact, they are the same legal strategies that most of the top 0.1% uses to avoid taxes and other regulations.jacobin.com

‘That all means the end of agriculture in the UK and across Europe, drought and monsoon failure in Asia and Africa, lethal heat and humidity’”
