and declaring them 'evil

2019-09-16 16:21:48 UTC  

funny when you remember that people refuse to shut up about the nazis

2019-09-16 16:21:54 UTC  

That's so redundant and it creates an extra layer of government for no reason

2019-09-16 16:21:57 UTC  

is the reason you see so many implosions and explosions

2019-09-16 16:21:58 UTC  

you vote for MEPs to represent you by voting the laws the commision makes

2019-09-16 16:22:04 UTC  

seemingly becoming so terrified of pride that you become a blinding beacon of it

2019-09-16 16:22:05 UTC  

i.e. suicides and shootings

2019-09-16 16:22:09 UTC  

they can ammend the laws too iirc

2019-09-16 16:22:15 UTC  

It's far removed from democracy

2019-09-16 16:22:25 UTC

2019-09-16 16:23:07 UTC  

Look, the PM gets elected, he/she proposes a commissioner. The voter has no say in who it is at all

2019-09-16 16:23:16 UTC  

also eu big gay

2019-09-16 16:23:28 UTC  

you vote for representatives to represent you

2019-09-16 16:23:28 UTC  

like, at all

2019-09-16 16:23:35 UTC  

isnt that democracy?

2019-09-16 16:23:37 UTC  

But you don't vote for that representative

2019-09-16 16:23:38 UTC  

or wut

2019-09-16 16:23:42 UTC  

"representative"

2019-09-16 16:23:54 UTC  

eu parliament is segregated from representative

2019-09-16 16:24:06 UTC  

are govs representantives or not?

2019-09-16 16:24:08 UTC  

MEPs cant actually do a whole lot other than make suggestions

2019-09-16 16:24:10 UTC  

Let's say the the PM/president had to choose someone who would choose the person who chooses the Commissioner

2019-09-16 16:24:18 UTC  

those suggestions can be ignored

2019-09-16 16:24:22 UTC  

anyway i said id fuck off

2019-09-16 16:24:24 UTC  

Would that be democratic?

2019-09-16 16:24:33 UTC  

What's the line?

2019-09-16 16:24:46 UTC  

What's the point where you say okay, that's not democratic

2019-09-16 16:25:05 UTC  

people vote for gov-------->PM/gov------>chooses commisioner

2019-09-16 16:25:28 UTC  

That's not democratic, though

2019-09-16 16:25:45 UTC  

sorry but we live in a world of representative democracies

2019-09-16 16:26:08 UTC  

direct democracy is not available yet

2019-09-16 16:26:13 UTC  

for millions of people

2019-09-16 16:26:15 UTC  

A representative can pass legislation, etc.

2019-09-16 16:26:18 UTC  

That's fine

2019-09-16 16:26:53 UTC  

But how can they choose someone for the most important job, basically a higher position than their own, without anyone voting for it?

2019-09-16 16:27:10 UTC  

Direct democracy sounds like a complete nightmare.

2019-09-16 16:27:14 UTC  

we the people give them that power
