@Daractenus: For the sake of making myself ...

For the sake of making myself as unlikable as possible with the MAGA community, to whatever extent MAGA is still a thing or a community right now, I've decided to do a short thread tackling the most common misconceptions they seem to have about Europe.🧵

No matter how hard you'd try it, and plenty of MAGA seem to be engaging in the task, you can't fit Europe into Texas. In fact, you can't even fit it into all of the US! Believe it or not, and I'm guessing not, Europe's 10.5 million sq km are more than USA's 9.8 million sq km!

Now I'm absolutely convinced that polio connoisseur and roadkill chef of a Secretary of Health you guys now have will do wonders, but until he does, the US currently ranks slightly below Albania in terms of life expectancy, and Albania ranks rather bad at it among us Europeans.

Despite the terrorist attacks I'm sure Fox News has repeatedly told you all about, the only thing to ever be safer than Europe, pretty much in all of mankind's history, is...still Europe. The US ranks so low here, I couldn't make the snip big enough to fit it in it.

Now I am by no means trying to break the "we have more money!" mantra, one surprisingly popular among the MAGA that don't seem to be very concerned about how that wealth is distributed, no, you really don't, at least not when compared to about a quarter of the EU!

While Europe certainly saw a massive blowback in its manufacturing industry and as "de-industrialized" as the MAGA think of us to be, we still makes about twice as many cars, tens of times as many ships and slightly more of everything else except bombs and guns, than the US.

Ironically as it is to have JD Vance teach democracy to the guys that invented it and preach freedom of press to a continent where nearly every single country ranks higher than the US, we can only hope you'll follow your own advice and finally take a solid lead on Gabon on this!

Truth be told, things are so terrible in Europe, much like Trump keeps telling you about, that last year we barely managed to score 8 countries into the ranking of top 10 happiest nations on this rather flat, from your point of view anyway I'm guessing, planet.

The Europe that Fox News, JD Vance, Trump, Musk and armies of alt-right propagandists convinced you of exists, does so only in their minds.

Meanwhile, the Russia we've tried to tell you about, the one Trump seems just about to ally the US with, is as dark as it is real!
