    @paranormal_distribution@fosstodon.org @EUCommission Just a quick note - if you care, call commissioners. Don't harass people who manage social media, especially the ones who manage Masto!

            Nearly three-quarters (72%) of citizens agree: our union brings real benefits. 🇪🇺

            The results of our Eurobarometer survey are out:

            🔹 Trust in the EU to protect democracy is up
            🔹Protecting democracy is your #1 reason for trusting us
            🔹74% support the euro
            🔹60% are optimistic about the EU’s future

            We’re tackling your top concerns, from cost of living to global security, head on.

            The EU has your back.

            I guess because they haven't heard much of you continuously trying to undermine people's rights as humans and citizens, and selling out to Big Tech surveillance and the AI lobby.

                as an american i'm looking at the collection of thinly veiled right wing trolls and hypercritical toxic idealists responding here

                and i recognize it well

                because it was these social media voices that helped kill the usa

                people don't understand what they have until they lose it

                all they seem to have is an extreme sense of entitlement to *demand* perfect now. and little understanding of what it takes to *work* towards better

                      @benroyce @jtb @EUCommission jtb is correct in that the Commission is unelected — we only directly elect the representatives in Parliament; and the members of the European Council and Council of the European Union, inasmuch as we have direct influence on our heads of state and ministers. (neither is to be confused with the Council of Europe; I wish the EU changed the name of both). We the citizens have practically zero control over the Commission.

                        entitlement is not only financial. there is also social entitlement

                        someone who loudly demands perfect right now, with absolutely zero ability to understand what it takes to work towards better. you don't do the work, what you do is bellyache and call that "work." toxic idealism, often a thinly veiled right wing cosplay troll. or, you are genuinely as you are, and just this authentically clueless and entitled

                        voices like yours helped the usa become as it is today

                                  @benroyce @jtb @EUCommission I'm pretty sure their re-re-re-reattempting to implement chat control, their folding to the US, US Big Tech surveillance companies, and to the AI fomo is much, much more dangerous to our Europe and to our democracy, than the "entitled screeching" of citizens rightfully concerned about the Commission — over which, I repeat, we have no direct control or influence — doing things that go against us as citizens.

                                    @benroyce @richlv @paranormal_distribution@fosstodon.org @EUCommission An example of how to achieve one's goals is a study in how the GOP destroyed America in 45 years. Starting with Ronald Reagan and now with MAGA. Slowly taking over the systems and eroding trust, safety nets, education, and causing real pain, and blaming it on the Democrats. Watching what the EU has done in Europe is remarkable, and hopefully it can continue to serve its people.

                                      @benroyce @EUCommission Mostly you are calling me names. I have no idea what I am supposed to be learning from you.

                                        Nearly three-quarters (72%) of citizens agree: our union brings real benefits. 🇪🇺

                                        The results of our Eurobarometer survey are out:

                                        🔹 Trust in the EU to protect democracy is up
                                        🔹Protecting democracy is your #1 reason for trusting us
                                        🔹74% support the euro
                                        🔹60% are optimistic about the EU’s future

                                        We’re tackling your top concerns, from cost of living to global security, head on.

                                        The EU has your back.

                                        @EUCommission I love watching poorly socialised men (shush, you know it) beg for attention under each Eurobarometer post. 😏

                                        Meanwhile, I know who the 🇪🇺 prime mover of being full of shit is. My fellow EUropeans, telling the nice Eurostat caller things that make you feel good about yourself is cheap. Voting is the ultimate revealed preference. And you keep voting for majority majorly shit national governments that keep their knee on the EU's neck.

                                        Happy #EuropeDay !

                                          @benroyce @phl @EUCommission I think criticizing government is perfectly acceptable in a democracy. It's what the press do all the time.

                                          hypercritical voices online serve no political purpose. they only serve the ego of the person doing the hypercriticism

                                          no understanding of doing the work. just standing on perfectionism and shouting demands

                                          this fosters disappointment, disengagement, alienation. feeding the right

                                          it's a psyop

                                          from entitled people. with no idea how precarious the foundations they stand on are

                                          again, i am warning you as an american

                                          go ahead and ignore me. and learn the hard way
