    We are silent when our Ally kills thousands of people on purpose and starves people to death so why would we speak up against a racist autocrat among us?

        Chapeau! I guess one could say most leaders in europe envy Orban, with his control over national media and the countries institutions.

        On the other hand i see fellow protesters in germany arrested for speaking out against an apartheid state and a complicit media afraid to speak out clearly against the horrors commited by the israeli regime.

        The leader i am currently most pissed at, is for obvious reasons (being German), Kanzler Merz. But the former government has just been as complicit and what makes it worse is that they pretended to be left leaning. Makes me want to puke.

          Although there’s still democracy and freedom in the eu, it’s quickly waning. I really hope we can turn things around and become a place of democracy and freedom once again.

            While i do still have hope to eventually have democracy again i doubt that our system can be saved as we still can not stop even the destruction we are part of.

            I know it might be tiring to hear it, but if we can’t even solve the crisis in the middle east, a situation we help on NOT solving, i don’t see a way forward. Which values are left in government but the blind service to our current economic model? Every decision, chat-control aswell, is a tool to keep our economy, dependent on instability and oppression, running.

            By now everyone should know that nothing of this is done in favor of the human race or even the population these governments pretend to represent. Representation only works when you represent the will of those people. Not even real pretense is left. Instead all i hear is why we can’t have what we need (affordable housing, good health, working infrastructure, public transport just to name a few) and instead need to offer more of that to our “god”, the economy.
