It is nothing short of amazing how the "leaders," all elected, of Western countries are willing to sacrifice their citizens on the alter of US/Western hubris. This is not authoritarian? You elect what you understand to be a democratic head of state, and they turn around and F^^k you over? I don't get it. Scholz hasn't been unceremoniously turfed over the 10 fold increase in energy which makes high inflation inevitable? Macron barely wins a confidence vote, but hasn't lost any confidence over it? Australians are being forced into austerity for no reason other than geo-political cronyism combined with racism, the stuff we point our fingers at when practiced by those we need to discredit. And the guy we like to call a fascist, Hungary's Orban, is one of the few making any sense.
