EU Official Suggests Booze as Global Events Worsen
According to Politico, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas reportedly told lawmakers it's 'a good time to start drinking' in light of current global events. One might wonder if this is a confession of complicity or just tone-deafness. This 'booze and cruise' approach comes as the EU continues its steadfast support for policies exacerbating global instability, including unwavering support for
Israeli actions in Gaza while civilians are systematically starved and bombed. Perhaps they need a drink after signing off on resolutions that greenlight such devastation. Instead of addressing the root causes—like the funding of endless conflicts, rampant corporate lobbying, or the erosion of humanitarian law—Kallas offers a stiff drink. This isn't the first time an official has suggested numbing
the public to grim realities; it's a classic move. Much like how media outlets sanitize atrocities in Gaza as 'retaliation,' European leaders are now sanitizing their political failures as reasons for a happy hour. It makes you wonder if they're drinking to forget what they've enabled or to celebrate having gotten away with it.
