MUNICH (AP) — A top European Union official on Sunday rejected the notion that Europe faces “civilizational erasure,” pushing back at criticism of the continent by the Trump administration.
EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas addressed the Munich Security Conference a day after U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio offered a somewhat reassuring message to European allies. He struck a less aggressive tone than Vice President JD Vance did in lecturing them at the same gathering last year but maintained a firm tone on Washington’s intent to reshape the trans-Atlantic alliance and push its policy priorities.
Kallas alluded to criticism in the U.S. national security strategy released in December, which asserted that economic stagnation in Europe “is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilizational erasure.” It suggested that Europe is being enfeebled by its immigration policies, declining birth rates, “censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition” and a “loss of national identities and self-confidence.”
“Civilizational erasure”
Europeans, you want to see erasure, come over here and drive through half the abandoned small towns in Oklahoma or Mississippi, where one rich asshole decided to move the business overseas and then the entire town fucking died. (I took the no tolls route to Dallas last year for a roller derby tournament, very eye opening.)
I hate these stupid, Nazi dog whistles, even more so when they’re coming from a Cuban toadie that Donald’s people would throw in a death camp in a second if they thought they could get away with it.
As a native of DFW I’m curious what you mean by this.
Clover Cup is an annual national roller derby tournament run by the Dallas Derby Devils every March. It’s great fun. Go support them and enjoy some games. :)
I used to be a derby skater but now I announce and travel for tournaments sometimes.
