I think in general they're not so we'll established in the countries where they never bothered to build a true national store. If I'm not mistaken their national stores in Europe, still from the time they were known for selling books, were France, UK, Germany and Italy. Spain came later and I think it's also a bit less dominant there.

I shopped with them years ago for my running watch. Never again, been boycotting it for years and it's really not that hard. There are alternatives, including physical shops.

For e-books I became a client of Kobo and one of the things I like about it is that you don't have to just buy them from Kobo. I've been actively buying ebooks directly from publishers and manually transferring to the e-reader. It's worth the effort to prevent new monopolies. Shop with the small guy whenever the price difference is small or the quality difference is worth it.

It's a fascist and imperialistic government, they probably think that the chaos from climate change open opportunities for them.. the old "from the chaos a new order will be born".

Value the freedom to burn corans in Sweden and Denmark. Thousands of people suffer horrible punishments and even death for so much less across the Muslim world. The least we can do in the privileged west is to show them that blasphemy is possible and "God" doesn't punish anyone. Its zealots know it, they also don't trust god to punish the infidels, they take the business in their own hands.

I don't have much hopes for the average African leader... many of them will by this. Europe should definitely focus help and investments on the few African nations with reasonable leaders that don't treat Europe as the threat and Russia as the friend. Investing one cent in the countries with leaders educated in the former USSR is a waste of ressources, they're brainwashed since youth. We need to separate the wheat from the chaff.

You're literally denying the death toll os the Paris, Madrid or Nice attacks. Each with a higher death toll than the ones mentioned before. Again, disgusting, appalling, sickening and no wonder the far right grows every time creeps like you speak on behalf of the left, even though that behavior is the antipode of what being on the left means.

Sickening.

That's basically negationism of all the massacres that been happening in Europe in this century. I'm leaving this community, this is unacceptable from a mod. It was already unfortunate that the Europe community was under a .de URL. But this appeasement to Islamic terrorism is just disgusting. Good bye.

Risky of you coming with facts on this topic, moderation won't like it.

Apparently is all we can on this topic..

Oh dear.

The credits are on the post. Don't be too sensitive about it.. it's a joke.

And yet all those attacks are easily overshadowed by hate murders against Europeans by Islamic terrorists, who are also fascist. You're right, two wrongs don't make a right. Nazis in Europe and Islamic fascists wherever are both abhorrent. Burning a book is just burning a book.

That's an insanely eurocentric perspective of a subject that includes violence in Muslim majority countries. And do show me the statistics of Muslims being murdered in hate crimes in Europe, would love to see that. Between or simplistic mindset and reality there's a world of difference though.

And again, fascism is far from being Christian exclusive, it's probably more common among Muslims. Open your eyes.
