Well well, time to vote for the anti-EU party.

[martijnvds → ecmascript]

The anti-EU parties are generally in favor of this kind of stuff.

[ecmascript → martijnvds]

Not in my country, here it's the reverse.

Even though, it's far easier to change peoples opinion in one country than in 28.

[eru → ecmascript]

Alas, the anti-EU parties are typically even more insane.

I suggest voting with your feet. The only vote that actually makes a difference.

[ecmascript → eru]

Voting with my feet?

[eru → ecmascript]

It's a metaphor for moving.

[anthk → ecmascript]

Here anti-EU parties want even more draconian laws against privacy.

[ecmascript → anthk]

Not where I live. Where I live it's the pro-EU people that are generally for this and is actually the people behind chat control (Sweden, Socialdemokraterna).

They are a horrible, horrible party that desires power over all else.

[shafyy → ecmascript]

This is surely the wrong conclusion to draw from this.

[robertlagrant → shafyy]

I imagine the idea is that smaller-scale authoritarianism is better than larger-scale.

[kwere → shafyy]

The EU is a socialist project since its inception, a third way between the excesses of capitalism and comunism

[ecmascript → shafyy]

Why? The EU is inherently anti-democratic IMO. Most people have no idea what is going on, what laws are being discussed and so on. Why should the EU have power over stuff like this to begin with? It's stupid.

[shafyy → ecmascript]

I agree that the EU is not perfect. But it's not anti-democractic. The European Parliament is elected democratically. Sure, there are ways we need to improve the legislative processes, but this doesn't mean the best thing to do is to disband the EU.

Or kill the potential victims, that will prevent future crimes too!
