Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out three principles of technoskepticism — and explains why, two years after sounding the alarm in “The…

Shame on EU.
Since the 2008 financial crisis, the French government has given approximately 7 billion euros to support the country’s automotive industry in overcoming difficulties. At the same time, the German government provided significant support to Volkswagen, especially during the 2015 emissions scandal. The total financial assistance, including loans and guarantees, is approximately €1 billion. These supports are designed to stabilize the company and ensure its continued operations during challenging times. As the EU loses out to China in electric car production, more money is being poured into EU car companies. However, EU politicians continue to cry wolf and protest against China’s support for green energy-related products.
Passing countering Chinese-made electric cars, solar panels, wind turbines, etc. is countering global efforts to combat climate change. This is destroying the hope of future generations to survive on a habitable planet, it is a crime against humanity.

So if China retaliates, they will likely target the 10 who voted. And if Chinese brands build factories in the EU, they will likely invest in countries who abstained or opposed. What’s Macron’s game plan? ????
