[19:11]		-TechPolBot/#techpol-302 redirect without Location header
[19:11]	nobody	Heuchelei bei Trumps Diesel-Deal: Auch EU-Staaten kaufen weiter russische Energie
[19:12]	nobody	there it is, some hard facts and data "Cowardice over Trump's Diesel-Deal: EU buying russian Energy"
[19:13]	nobody	however, EU imports are marginal, relative to the amounts sold to China and India
[19:14]	nobody	majority of shipments through straits of hormuz arrived at sout-east asia and china too
[19:24]	nobody	given this the whole "sanctions" dispute among EU and USA against Russia are not plausible, if such didn't involve China and India, Turkey, Egypt and who knows whoever else
[19:25]	nobody	and it is is China and India mainly who are filling Russian accounts for war in Ukraine
[19:29]	nobody	what kind of silly deals were these which Trump made
[19:31]	nobody	the international dispute over "climate agreements" are nonsense too, if the entire energy accounting was rigged
[19:32]	nobody	EU and USA are smashing each others heads over sanctions and climate agreements, meanwhile most energy supplies are consumed elsewhere
[19:34]	nobody	and having a look at typical demographics in "german" metropolitan regions, most oil/gas/energy together with german luxury vehicles are sold to immigrants (guess who, from turkey, iran, iraq, bulgaria, afghanistan - it's difficult to draw cultural borders between those)
[19:34]	nobody	labor unions and churches here standing nearby, argueing this is what produced "economic growth" to benefit german "social security system"
[19:36]	nobody	bottom line, even what's accounted for as EU was buying russian energy, a notable amount of this is routed into immigrant diaspora interests from the exact same regions who buy russian gas elsewhere (turkey, egypt, iran, etc. etc.)
[19:37]	nobody	reminds me, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania etc. always insisted to join EU and Schengen Region agreement for free roaming
[19:37]	nobody	it's no coincidence various oil/gas pipelines connecting to EU crossed those regions so EU had to consent with almost all demands from there
[19:39]	nobody	there was strong opposition against Turkey, Bulgaria etc. joining EU, but in the end BMW and Volkswagen had to sell their cars to someone, and import oil and gas to refuel those
[19:40]	nobody	so that's why we had to play cosy with the whole multi-culti immigration lunacy
[19:41]	nobody	german industry could have operated _without_ dozens of millions of immigrants
[19:41]	nobody	former GDR with a population size of 16million people did (producing almost all commodity goods domestically, we've been autark with this)
[19:42]	nobody	but german industry cannot operate without oil/energy imports
[19:42]	nobody	it's been a major reason why GDR collapsed late 1980s, because soviet union didn't consent with further supplies
[19:43]	nobody	contrary to common believe GDR economy and manufacturing was highly productive (it didn't suffer from the "dutch disease" in this context)
[19:44]	nobody	after 1990 manufacturing was completely outsourced to china
[19:45]	nobody	GDR had 16million inhabitants producing all commodity goods themselves, China got more than 1 billion citizens
[19:45]	nobody	for that matter, GDR too was a major exporter of commodity goods (hifi electronics, motor-cycles, chemical products, some semiconductors even)
[19:45]	nobody	which is remarkable given the small population size
[19:46]		*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techpol (Error from remote client)
[19:46]	nobody	and nowadays "german" politics and labor unions argue they couldn't run german industry with 83million people?
[19:47]	nobody	nowadays Volkswagen major market, that's China, not Germany
[19:47]	nobody	so what a fairy tale is this being told, over "climate change agreements", energy supplies, global economy?
[19:50]	nobody	i wouldn't consider it "german science and engineering" btw., but European overall
[19:51]	nobody	school books in GDR didn't erase french, italian, dutch, west-german or whichever scientists
[19:52]		*psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techpol
[19:52]	nobody	i don't know how "divided" germany was in science during cold war
[19:53]	nobody	to my knowledge west-germans did buy east-german books at that time
[19:53]	nobody	recognized for their quality
[19:54]	nobody	and even during cold war western europe was connected with a pipeline grid to soviet union for oil/gas supplies
[19:55]	nobody	when iron curtain fell in 1990, shortly after "globalization" ignited
[19:55]	nobody	east-germans weren't permitted to roam freely in their own lands
[19:56]	nobody	nowadays the whole world migrates into germany
[19:56]	nobody	seems to me, something went wrong, since 1990s
[19:57]	nobody	"german" government lecturing me strict austerity policy
[19:57]	nobody	meanwhile immigrants fuel their expensive german luxury vehicles here
[19:58]	nobody	and global markets booming with science and know-how exported from europe, and cheap russian gas sold by kremlin to china and india
[19:59]	TR News	EU working on multiple fronts to limit Russians from entering bloc https://www.lrt.lt/en/news-in-english/19/3083275/eu-working-on-multiple-fronts-to-limit-russians-from-entering-bloc
[19:59]		-TechPolBot/#techpol-www.lrt.lt | EU working on multiple fronts to limit Russians from entering bloc - LRT
[19:59]	nobody	just recently, reminds me, Netherlands were whining they could not sell any of their ASML lithography machines in Europe
[19:59]	nobody	we're lacking the knowledge and money ourselves to utilize our own technology
