In Germany, there are still people who think that German ICEs are our competitive advantage...

This works for both common meanings of ICE, engines and the train type.

If you tell a lie enough times, you start believing it yourself.

It doesn't really matter in the end.
The Human race is basically screwed and civilization will collapse in a few decades anyway. Most of your children's lives will be spent either starving, freezing, drowning, burning or fighting.

But for one brief, glorious moment, we created a lot of value for shareholders.

Insert "not with that attitude" meme.
Yea, it's rather tragic. It's especially visible in tech sector. There is basically no success large player/story in EU (Spotify is more licensing and Skype was moved out) and instead of fixing the environment, EU just adds regulations and fines giants from US.
Let's regulate metaverse, let's regulate AI.... Large players from overseas will pay lawyers and small ones will avoid EU and local ones are stifled.
Tech ... nothing. Automotive ... will be killed by Chinese EVs (good luck with tarifs when most profits of domestic OEM are from Chine)... Manufacturing... Most of it is gone, but some are still hanging on (Siemens et al). I guess there is a fasion/brand and turism.
