Is Europe becoming uninvestable?

You really have to love the institution that is the EU/European Commission. Europe's economy is stagnant for years and the future looks bleak. 

 

And what are the priorities of Europe's leaders? Recreate George Orwell's 1984:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chat control is a great way to continue Europe's suppression of Free Speech. Anyone who insults the German Chancellor on private chat with their friends or family can promptly be arrested. Hooray!

 

Know who is exempt from Chat Control? EU ministers, of course!

 

This is not a democracy, it's like an autocracy of the elites.

 

 

Twitter people have no idea about democracy, as usual. To give a non-democratic example, numerous punitive laws in Russia are approved by the parliament in a few days, from initial idea to legal validity. Here we see 3 years of discussions and multiple rejections - that is as democratic as it gets.

 

You could phrase this as "the EU is preventing chat control for the 6th time", because the EU consists of multiple actors, some o which are coming up with ideas, and some are rejecting or approving ideas.

 

Compare this again with the Russian president who decided to start a full scale war without asking anyone. Or the American president who did the same recently.

You know your "democracy" is in trouble when you start comparing it with Russia's...

Read it again--they used a rare measure to sneak it through:

But the European People’s Party (EPP), the largest group in the Parliament, revived the temporary extension through a rarely used legislative procedure. 

EPP MEPs largely voted against it in March, because of some amendments to the original text introduced by the Socialist rapporteur Birgit Sippel and other left-wing lawmakers, aimed at restricting the scope of the scanning, center-right group officials told Euronews.

EPP leader Manfred Weber has been pushing for the extension to be adopted without any changes and found a way to make it happen.

 

According to people familiar with the matter, on 17 June the EPP requested the Parliament’s President Roberta Metsola to push forward with the interim file and no other group objected.

 

 

No consider all the problems facing Europe and THIS is what these MEPs are hellbent on passing? LMAO.

 

You don't trust Twitter? Fine. What about R/Europe on Reddit? 

 

Why don't you read the comments.

Google, Facebook are built on collecting personal data, it's the whole business model. Every Big Tech today does that

LOL. You do understand the difference between a private company collecting data to sell you ads and a government, right? Or maybe you do not. I guess that's why Europeans like to click on those "Accept Cookies" banners all day
