Yup

@Simpnautica when it was just pure economics

Democracy as a greek idea is different than what's being applied in the states. The greek idea of democracy is hard to implement and will lead to failure

the EU is still kind of good, but they ask a lot

Yes, but now it's full of shitty policies

benefits probably JUST go over the negatives

It weird that alot of 3rd world nations blame 1st world for their problems

> i mean the EU was good many years ago
@Simpnautica Was it ever? I don’t remember voting for it. Every treaty of any nation should be re-voted every 10 years by its people to be valid. NAFTA, Asean, every treaty, even if it’s a big checklist where you have to vote by ticking yes in each box. Power to the people.

@Black Box Painting 😂 😂 😂

I had a friend from Czech who always complained about the migrants they were not allowed to arrest or turn away despite the fact they were doing criminal activity

@Alexis Fontana yeah it was pretty good economically

When th 1st world tried to industrialise them

But nooo

We wanna rule our own

and when you have a good economy... you can have other nice things

And then go into a complete civil war

@Riku what

Europe has no spine change my mind

> benefits probably JUST go over the negatives
@Simpnautica I’m proud of the 2bn$ fine to Microsoft in the ‘00s, but it’s the same with every government: Every once in a while, they do something that is popular, so people have a reason to stay and it shuts up the criticizers. But that is forgetting the 1000s of bad decisions, like feminist decisions being taken in the EU to avoid every country having a choice.

Yeah she was studying over here and kept complaining about 'gypsies and migrants' ruining her home and how difficult it is to police them or even just manage them

Blaimed the EU

Very outspoken about it too. And the regulations about their food ticked her off too

How are the Chezchs atheist and very conservative?

@Alexis Fontana well ik the people in the government aren't really specialists but some of them are and make the best logical decisions for a country

Most atheist I meet are very liberal

Ikr. I have no idea

> well ik the people in the government aren't really specialists but some of them are and make the best logical decisions for a country
@Simpnautica usually people in power just make decisions based on what the consultants recommend

yeah but that's like advisers to a king

the king can make whatever bad decisions he wants

Wake and bake
