Amid concerns about US focus and long-term security threats from Russia and Belarus, the EU approved a $170 billion defense scheme aimed at boosting military spending, improving joint procurement, and supporting Ukraine.
if it really bothers you that much then stop consuming english language news/media. i don’t mean that in a rude way but like, this isn’t a weird fad or something that the news is deciding to do… it is how we speak
I don’t think you get it. Calling the EU "Brussels“ is something right wing media loves to do and it’s not a simple whatever that word is you just mentioned, it’s being used as part of a disintegration campaign against the EU.
There are many things wrong with the EU but that’s another discussion, I won’t ever stop comparing about fascist rhetoric being spread.
I think I know what you’re trying to say, i.e. it supports the narratives like “faraway bureaucrats are interfering with my life?” but I still think you’re going too far there with your accusation.
Maybe, but I haven’t read this stuff a couple years ago and media seems more right wing now than ever, I actually don’t even want to be right here so I hope I’m just panicking
i mean, most media coming out of the anglosphere is right-wing to some degree these days. maybe you associate metonymy with fascism due to that?
i don’t think “whatever that word is I just mentioned” is fascist rhetoric, however. lmfao. next you’re going to try and tell me using pronouns is a leftist calling card.
yeah fascist co-opt language all the time, this isn’t that tho dude. redirect your energy towards something real and effectual, not merriam-webster. you won’t gain any ground here.
no?
metonymy is a feature of the english language.

In the case of Brussels, it’s just extremely bad; it could mean “Belgium”, “NATO” or “EU”.
