  Good on him. His own wife was bought out by the surveillance apparatus and he’s still going against it. Huge misstep by the EU for allowing government officials to censor any speech they deem ‘harmful’ at will and without repercussions

    People cheer every time something they don’t like gets censored, and then scoff and tell you you are just pro whatever-that-thing-was when you tell them why that is dangerous. People want 1984 to come true with all their heart.

      Propaganda works so god damned well and it makes me sick. We live in Europe and I hear people parrot MAGA talking points here where they aren’t even relevant. That’s how well it works. We’re not even the target audience and common tradesfolk in Scandinavia are like hurr durr we should militarize our Mexican border.

  I’ve seen a lot of left-leaning people on reddit getting angry over the veto. Absolutely insane, they are unironically begging for censorship there.

  He blocked Polish implementation of EU DSA so now we’re going to pay fines and we will have to do it eventually anyway. Great moral win for this thug.
