    I stated that the present EU is a hell hole, but oligarch Russia, imperialist america and authoritarian capitalist china are better at being a hell hole nothing more and nothing less.

    You imaging me not standing for Gaza or loving colonialism is typical tankie “if your not a Stalinist you must be a neoliberal” is so telling.

    You make up a picture in your head, where you are the good guys, everyone else is evil, and nuances dont exist. Same attitude as maga, puti lovers or ai fanboys, just different made up narrative.

      Explicitly tell me how the EU is less bad, let’s discuss facts. And no, I didn’t assume your position on Gaza or whatever else, I explained what the European leadership’s position is.

        Freedom of expression Freedom of assembly Surveillance state Freedom of press / censorship Privacy rights Medical security (at least better than USA and russia, dont know enough about chinas medical system to judge) Queer rights Climate destruction (EU is worse than china but better than Russia and USA by relative standards)

        Not to say anything of those is good here, just not as bad

          Freedom of expression unless you want to wear a hijab.

          Freedom of assembly unless you’re holding a pro Palestine sign.

          Right to privacy unless the US government wants your data.

          Freedom of press unless you write pro Russian articles.

          Medical security unless you’re disabled or can’t work.

          Queer rights unless you’re trans.

          Wow sounds like the lesser evil for sure. Definitely a region worth celebrating

      The EU is imperialist, just like the US. Russia is run by oligarchs, true, but China is both democratic and a socialist country.
