LMFAO. This meme makes me second-hand embarrassed for Europeans. For 3 reasons.

First, it is politically illiterate and whoever made it is clearly not a serious person.

Second, pretending you're in Star Wars? Really?

Third, you have not and will never be the 'good guys' in any sort of fight, as long as you are a union of capitalist nations still feasting off of the stolen wealth of the global south.

Okay Russia is understandable cuz they're in a war, USA understandable cuz they're saber rattling, but genuinely what is China doing besides minding their own business?

How is China exactly threatening Europe? By offering affordable electric cars and cheap solar panels and batteries that EU doesn't manufacture anyway?

The Jedi were neoliberal losers that allowed fascists come to power and cared not for the extreme poverty going on beneath their feet of Coruscant, so yeah putting the blue lightsaber in Europe's hands is accurate.

I love the memes about how China is threatening Europe so much. The last time China did anything threatening to Europe it was when they had a war to kick the British out of China, and Europe will never forgive them for it
