    Germany destroyed its wind turbine industry, the same with solar stuff. Now they are warning about windmills from China

    Germany: “We want a green energy transition!”

    Also Germany: “But we don’t want affordable Chinese solar panels, Chinese wind turbines, or Chinese EVs.”

    “Also we’re going to shut down our nuclear power and replace it with more coal.”

    “Also we’re going to turn off the pipeline gas and start shipping gas across the entire Atlantic on immensely polluting diesel powered tankers.”

    “Also we’re going to start to re-arm like it’s 1933.”

    Germany being too paranoid because they were selling cracked encryption machines that they had backdoor access to during the cold war, thinking this could happen to them haha (via Crypto AG in Switzerland)

    Seriously, how could a wind turbine be used as a spying tool if Germany has physical access to it and can check it? This is just irrational
