In an attempt to possibly explain why 77 million Americans voted for this man, while simultaneously explaining just why it is that Europeans live substantially longer, I’m absolutely delighted to introduce the revised list of US food that you cannot legally sell in Europe!🧵
US Bread

Traditionally baked with just enough potassium bromate to make it fluffy and sufficient sugar to make the diabetes get to you before the cancer from the bromate does, US bread is legally sold as "cake" in the few EU countries that still allow for it to be sold. Image
US Instant Mashed Potatoes

Stuffed with enough BHA and BHT preservatives to give the product an expiration date of absolutely never, most of Europe has outright banned the product, depriving Europeans from what is otherwise a cheap and convenient way to encourage hair loss. Image
US Pop-Tarts

Very much an American classic which can double as a chemical weapon should you ever be in need, US Pop-Tarts have more than sufficient trans fats in them to make the carcinogenic dyes in it rather pointless, making for yet another EU banned delicious breakfast. Image
US Milk

The newest obsession of the US Secretary of Pestilence, US milk cannot legally be sold in the EU due to US farmers being known on occasion to spike the food of their cows with a mix of hormones, in a bid to squeeze out a few extra drops of milk and profit off them. Image
US Farm Raised Salmon

With just enough cheap industrially synthetized astaxanthin in them to make their flesh go a cheerful pink instead of their rather boring natural gray when farm raised, US salmon cannot legally be sold in several EU countries, Australia or New Zealand. Image
US Pork

Because American pigs are often fed large amounts of ractopamine, a drug that does wonders in increasing muscle growth in pigs and cancer in humans, the EU has deemed the product unsafe and banned it, seemingly without much concern for the profits of US oligarchs. Image
US Skittles

Banned throughout the EU in its original US form on grounds of containing titanium dioxide and synthetic dyes which may or may not be linked to DNA damage, Skittles had to come up with an entirely different titanium free recipe to access the European market. Image
US Chicken Meat

The American habit of bathing chicken meat in chlorine, a very safe and cheap practice legal in the US, led most of Europe to ban US chicken meat, much to the annoyance of Europeans looking for something to help them gain admission into Charles Xavier's academy. Image
US Frozen Dinners

Containing a totally safe chemical also widely used to bleach plastic, the wide variety of US frozen dinners have been deemed as unsafe for human and animal consumption in the EU, a widely unpopular move among Europeans looking for a quick way to get cancer. Image
US Chocolate Milk

Following several studies that have found the product to really help in never seeing what life beyond 50 looks like, or at least not remembering it for long given it seems to also cause Alzheimer's, the EU banned this otherwise delicious US product. Image
US Apples

Known to otherwise keep the doctors away, thanks to the diphenylamine they are sprayed with consuming US apples is a great way to make sure you will end up seeing multiple confused doctors and has been banned from sale in the European Union and most of the world. Image
US Froot Loops

Stuffed with a mix of the unsafest food colorings known to man, from the ones suspected to be linked to DNA damage to the ones known to cause neurobehavioral issues in children, most of Europe banned the product and nearly everything this product is made out of. Image
US Bleached Flour

With white flour not being white enough apparently, some US producers routinely treat it with chlorine gas or benzoyl, leading most of Europe to straight up ban the thing, somewhat unfairly depriving Europeans from a quick and easy way to get diabetes. Image
US Fake Blueberries

Banned in the EU but found in nearly every US product claiming to have actual blueberries in it, the fake blueberries get their blue from a totally safe and tasty petroleum derived dye, one highly recommended for those looking to grow a third arm. Image
US Canned Whole Chicken

Usually sold under some very misleading packaging that doesn't quite do justice to the product inside and with its taste most often described as closely resembling that of regret, US canned chicken cannot legally be sold as human food in Europe. Image

In the past 55 days, the president of the US has averaged about 20 social media posts a day, ranging from Bruce Lee videos to AI content of him beating up Canadians. To highlight this man's increasing descent into madness, I've put together a timeline of his Iran War posts.🧵
Day 4 of the war: Trump announces that the entire Iranian military is gone and the Iranians want to negotiate, an offered he claims to have flatly refused, on ground of it being "too late". Image
Day 7th of the war: Trump announces he will not make any deal whatsoever with Iran except an "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER". Thanks all the many brave and wonderful US allies. Image

With the US now on the verge of achieving pure idiocracy and a brand new form of government that can only be described in terms of coconuts and bananas, I’ve decided to expand my guide to what is arguably the most cartoonishly stupid administration known to modern man. 🧵
Married to an obscenely rich man whose children were already having children by the time she was born, and often seen wearing oversized crosses to differentiate herself from her North Korean counterpart, Karoline Leavitt is currently serving as White House Press Secretary.
Famous for having gone bald and aged some 37 years by the time he entered high school, point at which he had already picked up what was to be a lifelong passion for racial purity, Stephen "Reichskommissar" Miller is the current White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy.

With the president of the United States now thinking of himself as Jesus, I figured I’d tell you about the very Trump like Chinese peasant who, after having dreamt one night that he was the younger brother of Jesus, started arguably the bloodiest civil war in human history. 🧵 Image
Born in 1814 in an impoverished Chinese village, the sound of mind Hong Xiuquan would misguide his family into pouring all their meager savings into his education, in hopes of him dragging them out of poverty by passing the infamously difficult Chinese Civil Service Exams. Image
Having spent his entire childhood and teenage years preparing for it, he managed to completely fail the exam three times in a row, more or less bankrupting himself and his entire extended family in the process, which led him to have a rather understandable mental breakdown. Image

The greatest triumph of the incessant hurricane of lies coming from Russia, MAGA, and the likes of Elon Musk has been convincing a significant share of the world, including Europeans, to believe in a “decaying and collapsing” Europe that exists solely in their imagination.🧵
Nearly every single country on the European continent, the one that is supposedly "a totalitarian hellhole with no free speech", ranks significantly higher than the US in terms of freedom of the press, with every single one of the top 10 spots being occupied by European countries.Image
Things are so terrible in Europe from an overall quality of life perspective that last year, just like every other year really, European nations topped the charts of the happiest nations on earth, somewhat taking away from the "Europeans are on the verge of civil war" narrative. Image

I believe it is worth revisiting just how utterly tragic EU accession has been for some of the most recent member states to join, and, in doing so, explain why all local anti-EU actors, for all the backing of Donald Trump and Russia, will always ultimately end up defeated. 🧵
Since tragically joining the union in 2004, Poland has barely even managed to quadruple its GDP and start what is routinely referred to as "The Polish Golden Age", likely an achievement completely unrelated to the quarter of a trillion dollars worth of EU funds it received. Image
Joining in 2007, moment at which it famously topped world charts in efficient governance and standard of living, average wage in Romania went from a nickel and a smile to about $1200 net, with Bucharest alone now having a bigger GDP than all of Serbia and Bulgaria combined. Image

With less than 24 hours left until Hungarians head to the polls, I figured it is a good moment to take one final look at what Viktor Orbán has achieved in his 16 years of uninterrupted, near absolute reign in Hungary, by comparing Hungary’s performance with that of Romania.🧵
In 2010, just as Orban started his second reign, the country stood as the 53rd least corrupt country in the world, while Romania was ranked as 75th.

In 2026, after nearly 16 years of Viktor Orban, Hungary succeeded in being ranked as significantly more corrupt than Romania. Image
Pre-Orban Hungary could at the very least pride itself in having a minimum wage about twice that of Romania, even more, at various points in time.

In 2026, thanks to Viktor Orban's sovereign economic genius, the average wage in Hungary and Romania stands about equal. Image
