Fuck the EU overlords. They took our precious union of cultures and turned it into some totalitarian’s wet dream. I hope they all have an aneurysm tomorrow.
Rather those EU overlords than being under the thumb of US corporations.
Which would have been reality if those “EU overlords” didn’t fight against them. The EU is the only reason we can fine Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple and other corporations. We would be like USA 2.0.
LoL Our EU overlords have sold themselves to all these American corporations. ChatControl is just another example of that.
I think you are not following the news very attentively - those corrupt EU fuckers are currently working overtime to expose us completely to those very corporations that are so evil that I have no words to insult them as harshly as they deserve.
Agreed. The RU ain’t perfect, but I’d take it over any alternative.

It was never a union of cultures. It started as an economic union of Coal and Steel…

it was a union of cultures on the level of ordinary citizens, when Schengen opened internal borders and we were no longer required to ask for work permits to move between countries. The leaders have always been corrupt pieces of human garbage, as I have to admit in hindsight.

Schengen is about free movement of goods and workers. You might infer cultures from there, but as soon as that culture is Syrian or Afghan, there is pushback, so I’m not sure where you are seeing a union of cultures here…

Did I say I was proud of it? Pride is for fuckheads. I was happy to live in a European community for a while, and now I am ashamed of this “fortress Europe” full of police states and xenophobic populists. Obviously, cultures that were not present in the union in those days were not part of the union. Nowadays, they are, but the union has been fucked up.
