The thing is, we're in a common market, EU-wide recognizable seals are always better. European brands already use the B corp one, so there's definitely a market for it.

In a place without access to US apps and online services, how would you use the Internet?

I already replaced quite a few of these sites and apps. I still waste lots of time here on the fediverse though 😅

Vivaldi for browser, Ecosia for search engine and AI, newspapers apps instead of Google news suggestions and Lemmy.

Should the EU create its own alternative to B Corporation (certification)?

In a way the best is to have strong laws that ensure EU companies have a high degree of social rights.. but, it would still be cool to award outstanding companies.

Portuguese are no strangers to accidentally looking like a Renaissance painting while saving sheep. This photo went viral during the fires of 2022 in the same district of Leiria.

U.S. historian Robert Kagan: "We are watching a country fall under dictatorship almost without resistance"

All to say, you’re right. America is being raped by its president. But I hold hope that is not unfounded that this will not go unpunished. Even if it does take years…

I hold the same hope. My comments around here are not intended to be discouraging, but provocative, I'm sure the "American freedom" stills rings bells within most US citizens. So I do hope they'll do something to get it back.

The current framework however does seem too weak, the rich dudes own the country.

I didn't mean secondary in an offensive way. It's just a fact, it's not LA, NY, SF, Chicago or DC. It's a city with very little international recognition, it's probably more significant than what I assume, but from my European POV it seems a city way out of the main US metropolis.

I do wish it inspires more people around the US. But again, from what and where I see, it's seems like the US is going into a real dictatorship with very little resistance, be it the opposition party, the courts, the media or the man on the street.

Which websites should we link to?

Most books will have a page in their punisher's website, this is probably the most useful and to the point link you can provide.

So some people in a secondary city of the US have been protesting? Great, but that only proves the point. At least 2 of those people were murdered in the meantime by a government militia that faces no trial about it.
