    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.
