Japanese carmakers were trying to go with hydrogen fuel and did a big grift on their government to get it subsidized. I think the idea was that Japan would have a national disadvantage with EV production as they don't have the material base for batteries but they could have an advantage with hydrogen.

Those failed, or course. Now they're a decade behind - there were only two Japanese EVs sold internationally just a few years ago.

Free speech has never existed in the form told to us in school and on TV. Every liberation fight has faced violent state reaction and required compensatory resistance on the part of the people actively fighting the system. There has never been a turnaround on marginalizing policy that happened due to peaceful, state-protected debate in the marketplace of ideas. It's all been precipitated by hard fights that inevitably found enemies in the cops and the feds.

This applies to every Western country, especially those most desperate to cling to their chauvinist myths.

If you know this, you can protect yourself and others by knowing what response your actions will receive and therefore how to avoid unnecessary risks.

I recommend installing a Linux distribution that requires a hands-in approach like Gentoo or Linux from scratch. If you don't have an extra computer you can do it on a virtual machine on the computer you do have.

The process will require you to use the various incantations and rituals of using the terminal. As you do so, learn what they do by googling them or using their man page.

For more practice, write a shell script or otherwise choose a task you want to do using the terminal like browsing through your files or searching for a file whose name matches a pattern and so on.

Dems voters openly accepting 99% Hitler rather than do literally anything but whine about the people fighting back:

You can't degoogle without using a ROM that degoogles. Google has built itself into the Android operating system by default and replacing it is non-trivial, like using a ROM with microG.

As another commenter mentioned, though, you can partially degoogle in other ways.

Europe overall is still buying tons of Russian fossil fuels, they're just overpaying for it due to sanctions. A high bill is exactly what that entails!

Isn't it cool to be directly paying for NATO aggression?

No he's just inconsistent, trying to appease different audiences.

Because it alienates them from their vassalizing lords, the United States.

Europe is currently stripping itself for parts for US interests. It is most in their interest to have an independent foreign policy but they're so stuck in their imperialist wager of extracting wealth from the poorest countries (using the US as the global seat for this regime) it's unimaginable to Euro liberals. They're now so culturally ties to absolute nonsense about "Western values" and xenophobia (racism) that they can't even bail themselves out of this situation.
