Actual video of Jack himself
Why was that funny to me
Oslo freedom forum by human rights fundation ... how you wrap regime change agenda into a freedom spin

Media keeps pushing that Central Europe is becoming Authoritarian just because they dont like the EU
iirc Hungary's leaders are acting on constituents demands
idk about Poland
and Romania is just corrupt in general
Arnt they kinda authoritharian anyway?
Oh wait, central
Nevermind
I can see it happening in some countries for sure.
Poland, Hungary, and Romania are the main subjects in this
The NPR narrative was annoying because it tried to paint Trump's attacks on media as a parallel
Like Britain at times already feels like an anarcho-tyrany
b-but the EU *is* authoritarian.
im getting in an argument the op about it now
legit having to explain the EUs structure
he thinks that its all elected positions
only Parliament is elected by voters
Council matches who ever the States chief of state is, which is kind of elected by proxy, and the Commission is elected by Parliament
fuck now he's pushing the whole if the EU didnt exist all the countries would be fucked thing
Well, say that its impossible to prove.
Since all the countries in the EU are now being fed, unlike the US is doing just fine. Well, finer than most EU nations.
convo shifted to EU reform lol
well, as someone from country sandwiched between hungary and poland, I don't think there is anything worriesome going on in either of those so far
at least nothing new I'm aware of
yea i mean i cant speak for those countires but Romania, which is where this guys from, is corrupt af, and we are trying to figure out what could be done about it now
oh corruption is a standard here, it's inevitable in post socialist countries
yea
its part of his argument for them staying in the EU
which i guess is fair
problem seems to be is that there is no push for reform
You could ask him if he would prefer for people in his immediate community to have a say in how things should work or if a few unelected people from across the world who can’t understand the situation of the people living in his area should decide things for them.
I don’t know where he lives but if it’s the EU one day they can import 200 migrants into his town/city where they’d have no say in the matter and be forced to deal with it even if the local population knows they won’t be able to handle the influx.
somewhat covered that already lol
