Summary seems to be - There'll be a troop draw down in Europe, no matter what - NATO members must be aligned to Trump - Europe has to stop this "Buy European" shit, don't y'know this is a shakedown

Well Tom, I think I'm gonna have to go for that one time Miloš Zeman, former alive person and president of the Czech Republic held a gun that says "for journalists" on the side of it where instead of magazine, there was a bottle of spiced digestif liqueur Listen to @bloodwork.show

"very Israel type of post NGL" is the best comment I've seen to describe these. They do feel like the posts/articles that western outlets sourced from Israeli liberals after Oct 2023 (which is to say, despite the liberalism there's a real big 'uninterrogated nationalism' about the author)

As I said on the podcast, these insecure posts that so desperately need to prove America's worth feel very "it's ending" to me

Tweet from Melissa Chen (blue tick)

Been living in London for 3 years and every time I come back to the US, I have to recalibrate.

When you're overseas, you tend to forget what real abundance feels like, so much so, I just stood there in the granola aisle, mouth open, brain completely short-circuited as I stared at a ridiculous wall of infinite choice.

Bajillions of brands, flavors, and innovations - chocolate peanut butter banana crunch, maple pecan espresso, keto, paleo, collagen-packed, probiotic, gluten-free, protein-loaded, you name it. I was straight-up paralyzed by options.

Tweet continues (my god)

The French call it “embarras de choix” - embarrassment of choice. That overwhelming feeling when there are simply too many great things to pick from. It’s usually used positively or neutrally (the options are desirable), but the “embarrassment” highlights the mild frustration, guilt and indecision it causes.

But Americans don’t get embarrassed by it. At all.

Because they don't feel guilt about having MORE.

It is the Land of Plenty for a reason. It’s easy to start a food company here, it's easy to build brands, and it's easy to just employ / fire people.

That freedom unleashes relentless innovation and variety, feeding an unstoppable demand for better, tastier, healthier, crazier options.

And it continues:

No wonder Europeans lose their minds the first time they step into a Costco.

American abundance is a policy and cultural choice.
