    1. **Axel Springer about their award:**

      *The award is presented to outstanding individuals who demonstrate exceptional innovation, create and transform markets, shape culture, and assume social responsibility. It honors the recipients‘ achievements to date and encourages them to build further upon them. At the same time, the award recipients are intended to serve as role models for others, encouraging them to bring their own ideas to fruition.*

      Can’t make this shit up.

      I read he gets this award for his “contribution to democracy”. Is this a joke?! Thiel is an enemy to democracy and has even admitted as much

    3. I’ve been complaining for Politico’s anti-EU articles for quite some time now and it seems I now know why.

      For what, promoting Argentina as a place willing to rehabilitate nazis?

    5. Remember that post, whenever someone posts any Politico bullshit article (which always for specific reason puts everything about the EU and European unity in general in negative light) here.

    6. there is no surprise here, the HU company of Axel Springer is owned by Orbán & Friends: during the election run-up they ran multiple disinfo actions, one of them was intentionally messing up the POLITICO poll-of-polls predictions of HU elections, and then the disinformation campaign ran through the whole propaganda media. Next day POLITICO corrected the numbers but of course nobody paid attention to the correction, only the sensationalist first statement. (btw this is Russian playbook)

      Is he really far right? Or is he up vs down and employing the right because they are both anti-democratic..?

    8. Justgototheeffinmoon on

      WoW , and people still believe far right is about gettting rid of the establishment

    9. Yeah, not surprising at all. Springer CEO Matthias Döpfner met with Friedrich Merz and alledgedly tried very hard to convince him to work together with the AfD.

      Can we finally ban Politico articles from this sub? How much more evidence that they have an anti-EU agenda is needed?

    11. NoName-Cheval03 on

      Politico is literally a US propaganda operation against the integrity and unity of the UE and should be treated as such.

      The first step would be ton to ban Politico articles in this sub.

    12. Can someone please give examples of Politico’s anti-EU slant? Not a big reader and genuinely curious : )

    13. Axel Springer haven’t been for many years a media company that you look for decent news. Just a place for stupid propaganda, sensetional and money hungry. I remember in past reading Newsweek and it was pleasent read, lately you barely can make it past couple of pages.

      Man, I have defended Axel Springer on occasion, but this is indefensible.

    15. Peter Thiel is one of the most evil people alive today. So, or course, Axel Springer will give him a prize. Boycott their shit, people. As much as you can, anyway.
