Det er snarere, at få stenrige aktører er ved at forvandle demokratier til kleptokratier, hvor den politiske proces er tiltagende performativ. Men det er selvfølgelig lettere at løse imaginære problemer 072
Mads Andersen @madsandersen.bsky.social · 07/01/2025Should we deregulate and move towards a US model for tech?🤔 No! We need to insist on a European alternative way forward.
