"What we think about, we give it power."

What we think about, we give it power. What we talk about, we give it power. What we write about, we give it power!

America created and elected this political monstrosity, there isn't much we can do in Europe to stop it.

I.E. We would be a million times better off solving problems we can solve!

- We can welcome the people in desperate need who risk their lives to survive poverty and war.

- We can unit to reverse the effects of climate change.

- We can rebuilt our European political system and bring some solidarity to it instead of the constant competition.

- We can get rid of the former imperial ideas of greatness in comparative cultural and superiority!! We could build a better Europe, which unlike the United States of America wouldn't blame people for being poor when our industrial and financial system simply create more inequality and more poverty. Poverty is not a crime! Enough of these social segregation giving power to the powerful only. All people matter and they should matter in our political representation.

- France needs a real Parliament and Britain needs to wake up from its post-imperial homesickness and they could focus their energy on building a sustainable society for a change, a society that would include the real people living on their soil, and not an imaginary, perfect and ethnically controlled group of rich, power-endorsing individuals.
