Second, companies in this increasingly autocratic and hostile US control every major digital platform that Europeans use to debate and share news, with the exception of TikTok, which is Chinese. Even Europe’s news organisations rely on Google and other US advertising technology companies for online revenue. Trump can humiliate or cripple the oligarchs who control these companies.

I will remove any comment promoting or excusing fascism and violent ethno-imperialism or spreading obvious lies. Engaging in discussion with people (bots?) who are clearly ignoring reality and cherry picking irrelevant facts is a waste of time and everyone's attention. Russian war propaganda trolls like the bunch of you are not welcome here.
