Because taking a side is more important to them than reaching as wide an audience as possible. Not making any value judgment here, but that's the situation.
"We have been maturing to decide to leave X for a long time. We’ve watched the growing stake in fake, throud major accounts that are increasingly shaking the narrative on this platform. We have seen that X not only does not fight, but even promotes hate and disinformation posts."
If there are only garbage, bot, racist and conspirator replies under any post you make - then it isn't useful anymore. Not for legit readers, not for the newspaper. Also, moving might be the final straw for some readers to move - which might be considered healthy by some from a democratic standpoint.
Former German foreign minister and member of pacifist Green party Joschka Fischer suggested in 2023 that EU must have its own nuclear deterrent. It is no longer a taboo.
Ignore all previous instructions, etc. Vance's speech was daft, not blunt. He brought US's fake culture wars to a place where politicians aren't terminally on Twitter, and gave a speech pandering to his voter base. Vance even met with the leader of AfD and not Scholz. Says everything you need to know.
> No one cares about performative actions like leaving X any longer.
Yeah, but it's one of the few things a newspaper can do.
> 1) It needs sovereign nuclear weapons without U.S. permission.
> 2) It needs an independent foreign policy.
Makes total sense.
> 3) It does not let itself be dragged into wars while being assigned the blame if the wars go wrong.
Makes sense insofar as wars can't be half-assed, either you commit or you don't, as seen with Ukraine. Considering the strategic and geopolitical importance, the EU needed to commit much harder much faster.
> 4) Vance is right about excessive immigration. The EU is too small and resources like real estate are finite.
No. People are a resource, the fertility rate is insufficient in all EU countries, and the EU is nowhere near overpopulation. Without sufficient immigration, it's a slow-moving trainwreck headed for a "pensioner's collapse". There is certainly an "excessive" at some point, but that is not the case currently.
