I don’t want to start a war here, but I don’t get why people argue that the EU is better than the US because X or Z. We just side with who is the “less bad” and who action’s directly affect us less or more according to our standards and reality.
This is just plain bullshit, at this point why they don’t just convert their hidden dictatorships to real dictatorships? Let’s censure everything, everything is bad, fuck that.
Probably because the EU is better than the US. Just because its not perfect and has flaws, doesn’t make it as bad or worse as the US.
Semantically equivalent. Nitpicking this wording is pointless
In the absence of a good option, “less bad” will have to do.
Semantically equivalent, but not the same. Especially emotionally, which humans are prone to be. Context, and matrix, matter.
Fewer bad ;)
Thank you for letting me know, I’m not an native english speaker as you can clearly see, and honestly I just type as I believe it can be understandable.
There are plenty of stupid ideas being pushed everywhere. In general, the EU has better checks and balances to weed out the awful ones. Not always obviously, but no system is perfect.
Yeah, that’s my point, maybe I redacted wrongly my comment, I genuinely want to know why people say that the EU is better than the US, and they are VERY probably right.
I just find funny this “EU vs US” everywhere.
better social safety net. also from over here it seems like there is less overt systemic racism there.
Which hidden dictatorships specifically?
The people who is behind and promotes stupid laws like this one
Well, this isn’t a law and nobody is promoting it. It’s the result of some research funded by the EU. If a law ever comes of it, it is going to go through a whole pile of democratic hurdles within the EU, and then again within each individual member state.
So again I ask. Which hidden dictatorships within the EU specifically are you referring to?
