Nobody is shutting it down, this is just EU/Italy self-sabotaging :) the rest of the world will carry on at incredible pace they won't ever be able to match - or catch up.

This is affecting pretty much all Europe. We are shutting down everything here: France, UK, Italy, Spain, Sweden, ...

Europe can’t catch a break. God speed.

Just like Italy started doing now, and everybody else will in the coming weeks.

With the economic slowdown they can't afford to lose USA and EU.

The article didn't open, but just in case, it's not only Europe that's headed off a cliff. It's the whole Western world.

Europe is going to have a long hibernation in the global scene. Whatever existed was killed by bureaucracy and taxation.

Whatever doesn't exist, it will simply not happen, the ship has sailed

The real losers are Europe.

demonshalo | karma 206 | avg karma 1.29 · | 2016-12-02 09:39:08+00:00

sigh... Europe does not stand a fucking chance!

Europe is doing fine. This one is strictly on the UK.

WordSkill | karma 217 | avg karma 1.79 · | 2015-05-29 16:03:28

Europe is broken.

WordSkill | karma 217 | avg karma 1.79 · | 2015-05-29 16:03:37

Europe is broken.

kaybe | karma 3621 | avg karma 1.66 · | 2018-10-23 17:13:12

Oh don't worry, Europe is doing it too.

rebolek | karma 882 | avg karma 3.64 · | 2021-04-13 16:21:56+00:00

Everyone is. That’s EU’s greatest strength.

pjmlp | karma 109153 | avg karma 1.76 · | 2023-02-11 03:23:37

Until the great EU firewall happens.

How is that great news? The competition is literally decades behind.

This is crippling Europe.

You're not another EU country anymore, mate.

Not to worry though, the whole damn thing will collapse sooner rather than later, and then you'll be happy to watch the implosion from a comparatively safe distance...

Guess what: Europe doesn't do instant termination and the roof hasn't collapsed.

Italy seems to me the only western country to have taken decisive action. For once I am actually rather proud of my country. What are the other European countries waiting for?

_moof | karma 3721 | avg karma 5.67 · | 2021-11-29 07:57:15

Over 800,000 people in Europe have lost a lot more than two years.

I understand that it's been a long time and you're frustrated, but this simply isn't over yet, and the consequences are real.
