È ora di svegliarsi: l’Europa deve unirsi e diventare una vera superpotenza

Enough is enough—how many more humiliations do we have to swallow before we open our eyes and realize that Europe, as it stands, is a giant with feet of clay? We need a united, federal Europe, with a single constitution, uniform laws, a unified tax system, and above all a shared military. No more of this bickering like a squabbling condo board. If we want to truly matter on the world stage, we have to act as one bloc.

Dependence on the USA? Thanks, but no thanks. For years we have lived in America’s shadow, meekly accepting their dictates and demands. It’s time to cut that umbilical cord and grow into a self-sufficient power. If we don’t do it, we will keep letting them set the agenda, reduced to mere pawns on a chessboard controlled by Washington and Moscow.

Speaking of Moscow: Trump and Putin have already made a deal to weaken Europe. They are fully aware that economically and culturally we are a sleeping giant, and they are doing everything they can to keep us fragmented. They have even unleashed Elon Musk to manipulate and destabilize key countries like the UK and Ireland, sowing confusion and disorientation. Their end game? Leave Eastern Europe at Moscow’s mercy and isolate the core of the continent so they can carve up spheres of influence across the region.

The United Kingdom must come back to this vision of a united Europe, forget Brexit and the mirage of independence. London should recognize that outside the EU, it becomes an easy target for Washington’s maneuvers. The same goes for every country left out or that has not joined yet: either form one genuine continental bloc or remain isolated, acting as vassals to the world’s dominant powers.

We must act now, or we will go on being those nice Europeans who preach democracy and cooperation while everyone else pulls the rug out from under us. It is time to show the world that Europe can not only compete but surpass everyone else. We have the history, culture, brains, and resources: stop scattering ourselves in a thousand directions and come together under one flag, one federal parliament, one army, and one common strategy across all fronts—economic, technological, environmental, and military.

If we do not want to fade into irrelevance, we have to choose to become a real superpower. There is no more time to hesitate; the game is on now. And if we do not want others deciding our future, we need to grab the helm quickly. Europe has waited long enough: either we unite and show we are stronger than the US and Russia combined, or we accept a bit part on the global stage—and that makes me sick to my stomach.

Let’s do it, right now. We’re tired of hearing that we are potentially an economic adversary. We are an economic adversary already, all that’s missing is stepping up and acting like a power. Do we need unity? Yes, and immediately. Enough with Brexit, enough with these little homelands: the European Union must become a single Federal State, with clear rules; we already share a currency, now we need the rest. If we want to break free from Washington and Moscow’s grip, that’s the only way.

Why haven’t we done it yet? Good question. Maybe thanks to private interests, or politicians pretending to defend national interests while they only look out for themselves. Or maybe because of old fears left over from past centuries. Enough, wake up. United, we can be the greatest power on the planet without submitting to anyone’s games. Whoever doesn’t believe it, feel free to stay behind; but don’t complain later if a Trump or a Putin ends up calling the shots on our own turf.

Instead of taking it passively, Europe needs to roll up its sleeves and become a superpower, now. Yes, now, in every language, in every dialect—the key word is now. Not ten years from now, not after history has already decided for us. We make history, and we need to make it today.

Europe is already a super power!! We just need to start bragging about it like the US also used to do!

In fact; looking at the US, it is rapidly evolving into a third world country, loosing the majority of its allies.

Unite? The continent is full with russian trojan horses. Namely Orban, Fico and other scums.

Good luck! You’ll have to start with the albatross that is also hanging around the US’s neck.

USAID

USE USE USE!!!

This has been my saying for years, long before Trump 2.0 (once again…) shat the bed.

It’s unity or bust. Only united does Europe stand a chance to defend its interest on the world stage. We need to stand on our own feet, hold our heads high, not be dependent on anyone for anything. We need to be strong and independent, so nobody can bully us or make decisions for us.

Long live a united and free Europe, the bastion of hope in a world of autocratic shitholes.

Let’s start by directly electing the President of the EU Commission.

Get offline. Organize.

I keep saying that.

The internet is so weird now.

What would we able to do if Europe federalised? How do people envisage us using our weight?

If we had an army, should we deploy it overseas?

Should we economically sanction more countries?

I’m not saying it’s the wrong thing to do, instead that people seem to be saying “let’s just be more powerful, how hard can it be”

What do people actually want us to do?

Europe can only unite if the national interests of countries involved ally.

For that to happen you need a real common EU budget (not 1% of GDP), but rather 40% like national ones.

I don’t know if becoming a superpower but it definetely needs to unite instead of depending on an schizophrenic ally.
