To help us Europeans in 1945, thousands of Americans had to fight their way from the bloody beaches of Normandy all the way to Berlin, under fire, in ice cold trenches, watching their friends die left and right.

But to help the Americans in 2026, we Europeans need to sit in our heated livingrooms and hit "end subscription" on streaming services that finance the American oligarchy — and of course no one wants to live through the horror, so fascism it is.

@randahl YouTube?
@livcomp potentially yes.
I earn a living from YouTube which has a monopoly that I cannot easily replace, but for me it was the easiest thing in the world to replace Prime Video with Sky Showtime, and to buy my products from Thomann instead of Amazon, and to not subscribe to ChatGPT, and to not buy a new iPhone, etc.

One of the major, imho most important, differences to 1945 though:
Back then the troops had the full support of their government.
