Thomas Fazi is a socialist, but I guess lib trolls will smear anybody who speaks against their ideology as being right wing. The clown act is getting old to be honest.
In their comment section you get bangers like this:
Divide and conquer. The leftism is a veneer for global capital. Open versus closed – global no border versus nation state. I have seen behind the curtain. Follow the USAID scandal if UK media is able to do it. TIME TO WAKE UP!
Yeah I’ll smear that publication I don’t like it
Should do an AMA on what it's like to put on those clown shoes every morning.
Lol sorry it’s funded by a conservative hedge fund manager who also funds GB news, I’ll put on the shoes but you gotta help with the make up
Gotta love how liberals are consistently unable to engage with the substance of an argument and just bleat about the far right instead.
Gotta love how a guy pretending to be Stalin on the internet thinks calling me a liberal annoys me
Adorable attempt at an insult, your mommy help your with it or you come up with it all on your own?
Ok? Unherd is still a conservative hipster publication, the article was ok but reading the comments made me want to smash my head against a wall.
Ok, you continue to do hamfisted attempts at smearing the source instead of engaging with the content. Your trolling can be safely ignored.
Damn you suck at reading. I said the article was ok but I hate the publication, who’s the troll now?
I don't suck at reading, I'm just pointing out how utterly vapid your comments are.
https://touchgrass.now/ Or maybe just post 30 more articles. I don’t care.
Stay mad. 🤣
Oh the laugh crying emoji the ultimate sign that you won.
you know it little buddy

This article bummed me out so I asked chatgpt what Europe has invented in the last 10 years.
*In the last decade, Europe has made significant contributions to global innovation across various industries. Here are some key examples:
Medical & Biotech
mRNA Vaccine Development (BioNTech, Germany) – Partnered with Pfizer to create one of the first COVID-19 vaccines.
CRISPR Gene Editing (Emmanuelle Charpentier, France/Germany) – Revolutionized genetic engineering, earning a Nobel Prize in 2020.
Artificial Hearts (Carmat, France) – Developed advanced artificial heart implants.
AI & Tech
AlphaFold (DeepMind, UK) – Solved a 50-year-old problem in protein folding, accelerating drug discovery.
Graphene Innovations (University of Manchester, UK) – Continued breakthroughs in applications of graphene, the world’s strongest material.
ASML (Netherlands) – Developed extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, essential for producing advanced computer chips.
Sustainability & Energy
ITER Fusion Reactor (France & EU partners) – A global collaboration working on nuclear fusion as a future clean energy source.
Vertical Farming (Infarm, Germany) – Innovated urban farming solutions using AI and hydroponics.
Plastic-Eating Enzymes (France, UK, Spain) – Biodegradation breakthroughs to combat plastic pollution.
Space & Aviation
Ariane 6 (France, ESA) – New-generation European rockets for commercial spaceflight.
Airbus A321XLR (France/Germany) – The most fuel-efficient long-range single-aisle aircraft.
Finance & Digital Economy
Fintech Startups (Klarna, Sweden; Revolut, UK; Adyen, Netherlands) – Transforming digital banking and payments.
Blockchain & Crypto Regulation (EU MiCA Law) – Europe leads in crypto regulation and digital finance policy.
Conclusion
Europe remains a major player in global innovation, especially in biotech, AI, sustainability, and deep tech. While it may not dominate consumer tech like the U.S. (e.g., Google, Apple), it leads in fundamental science, energy, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. *
It's all marketing and propaganda BS... Europe remains a top player in R&D despite having just few few famous unicorns. It's mostly due to regulation preventing monopolies and the lack of VC (which has good and bad impact IMHO) but the deeper question is : so what? What does it mean when companies don't scale up by gobbling up competition?
So yes, the examples you give, and there are many more, do show Europe is managing to do all that, and I'd argue it's key, without being authoritarian politically nor as winner-take-all economically.
It's a balancing act but well worth the effort.
