Because democracy is just as bad as fascism…
At least in the EU we have a working democratic system, and its really just the people voting who are voting fascists
Because democracy is just as bad as fascism…
Fully aware you’re being mockingly sarcastic, but there’s some truth to that - democracy and fascism aren’t some “polar opposites”, but rather just a form of class rule and you get one or the other depending if times are good. If times are relatively alright, you have normal democracy and elections, and when they’re not (with there being risks of severe class conflict or overthrow), that’s when you get fascism to concentrate capital and suppress dissent.
Also, a “working democratic system” doesn’t say much when there’s nothing more to it than billions in campaign funds and media to decide who’s getting elected.
Yeah, you’re right
What I wanted to say is that the EU still has a working core, that being voting
Since when do we like Frontex? (Which still isn’t nearly as bad as ICE)
that’s the joke we dont. And even if you think it is less bad, it is still worth fighting against… while we cant fight against ICE
What Russian propaganda shithole did this climb out of?
You seems to imply that criticizing europe play into Putin playbook. At the moment, the EU sport is mocking how retrograde USA is. Realizing, EU is in the same shit, will probably make people more concerned about how bad it is at home and act accordingly. Instead of watching with popcorn in hand and rejoice at the awfulness of USA, it is sound to be reminded that EU is no paradise, and be more active in resisting the shit there. So If having European being more politically incline is putin’s goal, so be it
Banger
I wouldn’t exactly say our islamophobia is “great”
That’s the joke: EU is as bad as USA. Same racism, same border patroll
