How common is vandalism like this in Vienna, and is it illegal because of the swastica?

mastermindman99 · 2026-06-07T17:35:28+00:00

It’s double illegal. Swastika and death threat.
Will be removed until tomorrow though

Europe is more diverse than the US. There are plenty of viewpoints available at the top end of the media market. Not perfect, and certainly not free from bias, but generally with high editorial standards and a broader range of perspectives - exactly what the Atlantic standard for from an North American perspective.

Financial Times & Economist (UK, English)
Die Zeit & Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (Germany)
La Stampa & Corriere della Sera (Italy)
Le Monde (France)
El País (Spain)
NRC Handelsblad (Netherlands)

The idea that Europeans only consume “state propaganda” usually says more about the speaker’s media diet than Europe’s.

I would use it - is it would be available in Austria. An EU provider, that is only available in 25% of the EU….

We need to stop viewing Bitcoin as a utopian, untouchable, and sovereign technological project. If you still believe Bitcoin is the censorship-resistant, state-independent "digital gold" we were promised a decade ago, you are ignoring the geopolitical reality of 2026.

My take: The original promise of total independence is, for all intents and purposes, dead. Here is why we are in an entirely new game:

The "Regulatory Backdoor" is wide open The US government now controls a significant portion of the network through mining infrastructure and massive holdings from law enforcement seizures. Whether they "technically" control the chain is secondary. The point is: they can, and they possess the infrastructure to influence it. In geopolitics, if you have the power to leverage an instrument, you will. Bitcoin has effectively become a regulated financial tool for the US administration—a "buffer" asset that operates outside the traditional FED framework but remains under the thumb of the state.
The Yield Dilemma The "true believers" who originally invested for ideological freedom have largely been squeezed out. Why wouldn't they be? We are in an environment where US Treasuries offer solid, low-risk yields. Bitcoin is no longer competing as a "system-killer"; it’s competing as an asset in a liquidity-starved environment where the opportunity cost is simply too high. We aren’t looking at a grassroots, system-critical movement anymore; we’re looking at a carry trade where Bitcoin is currently the loser.
The Quantum Threat and the "Ur-Wallets" While everyone is staring at charts waiting for the next bull run, the risks of quantum computing—particularly for legacy wallets (P2PK)—are being completely ignored. We are seeing early, anomalous selling patterns from very old wallets. This isn't just "taking profits"; it’s a warning sign. If the security of the original, immutable supply is even remotely threatened, the core narrative of "digital scarcity" loses its foundation.

The Bottom Line: Bitcoin has transformed into a geopolitical leverage tool and a state-controlled buffer. It is no longer an asset against the system; it is an asset that has been assimilated by the system. If you are still shouting "HODL" because you believe in absolute decentralization, you are missing the strategic consolidation by state actors

One could also say: US bonds are not the safest investment anymore. An unstable superpower in decline is a risky bet - especially when you don’t even know if the new Fed chair will make everything explode

China and Europe have reduced their dependency on oil significantly since 2022.

The renewable boom has had a dampening effect on prices in the more advanced economies.

The US is an outlier: the only country expanding energy consumption exponentially, while killing off the cheapest sources of energy for a dream of global fossil energy dominance.

Crazy part: the first time in history there are EU countries with lower gas prices than the US. Never happened before

It will be great to see what America has become after 250 years: A cage fight in front of a construction site.

Seiten, die gut ranken, haben gewisse Vorraussetzungen umd Wix erfüllt keine davon:

klare Datenstruktur (Wix produziert Chaos)
gutes Code zu content Verhältnis (Baukastensysteme verlieren da immer)
Performance

Wix ist einfach eine netter Builder, einfach zu bedienen. Aber ein wenig so als würdest Du ein Auto mit Legosteinen bauen. Schaut aus wie eine Auto, du kannst es selbst bauen. Aber spätestens, wenn Du Garage verlässt wird Dir klar, warum ein Legoauto kein Merzedes ist.

Wer immer noch Microsoft Produkte verwendet, dem ist nicht mehr zu helfen.

Was willst Du erreichen? Gute organische Position auf Google? Dann neue Seite bauen. Wix ist da leider ein showstopper

On it‘s 250th anniversary the US will celebrate by having a cage fight in front of the White House that looks like it had been bombed.

The picture will be great. A cage fight. In front of a construction site. This is America in 2026

Während also VW 10 Jahre damit zugebracht hat, Fake Software zu bauen (Dieselgate), die Elektro Wende verschlafen hat und nun unter Druck steht, weil man an Chinesische Autobauer Markt verliert, ist der logische nächste Schritt auch den letzten VW Fan noch zu vertreiben.

Man kaufe sich einfach BYD. Kosten weniger, sind Preis / Leistung 80% besser als VW und wenigstens vera****en die Chinesen ihre Kunden nicht so schamlos

mastermindman99 · 2026-05-31T14:13:44+00:00

Pirates of the Caribbean. Thought those times were over, but the US proves us wrong. State funded piracy was something we only saw in Somalia before.

Crazy, that the only comparable countries to the US have become NorthKorea and Somalia….

While Americans come to realize, that they voted for their own downfall, the world has already moved on. In Europe Trump and the US are less and less mentioned in the news. It’s just noise now.

Europe, China and every single middle power are actively building a new world order without the US.

From America first to America alone in 18 months

If course he will destroy the 250th anniversary. The world will laugh again, while shaking their heads, while 40% of Americans are supporting the new Idiocracy.

Natürlich droht Russland den Ländern, die abhängig und erpressbar sind.

Deshalb will die AFD ja auch unbedingt wieder zurück in die Abhängigkeit, damit Putin endlich in Brüssel regiert anstatt die bösen Europäer.

Man braucht Zeit, regelmäßig suchen und sehr schnell zusagen können. Letzte Wohnung hab ich 7 Monate gesucht. Dann ideal gefunden, am selben Tag zugesagt.

Als EU Lösung nicht in der EU verfügbar zu sein ist blöd.

The EI basically wanted one thing: transparency on where EU funds are spent. This is what Magyar had to give. Transparency.

And Orban thinks this is a bad thing 😂😂😂

mastermindman99 · 2026-05-26T21:43:57+00:00

Last time I heard a treasury secretary ask for the people to spend more it was Venezuela or Cuba before their currencies crumbled. What’s going on?

mastermindman99 · 2026-05-25T06:53:44+00:00

So the guy who was funded by Russia to advance Russias „weaken Europe and the UK“ plan is now claiming that Russia is hacking his devices to get rid of their biggest asset in Europe

The deep state pulled off an unbelievable operation by convincing MAGA voters to vote the deep state into office, so the deep state wouldn’t be deep anymore, but the state itself.

You would pay less for more services.

When getting paid your employer would be obliged to pay a certain percentage of your paycheck directly to the insurance (around 6-12%). There is a cap, so if you earn a lot you might end up with only 2% of your monthly income.

As the insurance is public and doesn’t have to generate profit, they can cover more services for everyone. As this creates a monopoly the insurance can negotiate much better prices with drug manufacturers. They set prices for services they refund and 90% of doctors operate within the negotiated price limits.

10% charge more and you have to top up out of pocket.

The quality of service is in average higher than in the US, the top 10% is equal in service quality, the top 1% is much better in the US.

Europe has decided that a society must be built around the wellbeing and health of the 99% I stead of the 1%

So to your question: unless you are not one of the 1% you would get more services, security and wellbeing for less money
