I’m European and I couldn’t care less about blue checkmarks and I don’t want social networks censoring people. After all, every time the commission has publicly clashed with Musk it has been because the commission wanted more censorship and Musk doesn’t care. On what side should I be?

Given that the glaciers should’ve all melted by now, and that we can’t even predict with certainty whether it will rain tomorrow, I wouldn’t pay much attention to predictions.

Basically an overwhelming majority of the countries + the commission?

What these people want is censorship that only allows progressive arguments to flourish. They already have all the laws that make non-progressive speech forbidden, but they are struggling to apply them to companies that are the other side of the pond. Having social networks here would allow them do to so easily. To that I have to say no thanks.

From last year. There is a version in English.

Regarding renting, it’s legally almost impossible to kick out a squatter, which means most people choose to leave their empty homes closed instead of renting them, which, added to mass immigration, has led to a surge in rent prices.

On the other hand real estate is held by wealthy old natives and laws are enacted to make sure that real estate increases in price forever, the young be damned - no one cares about them since our population pyramid means they’ll always be a minority.

Almost all of my friends with higher educations have left for northern countries, as the situation here is untenable for young people. Of course if you have money that’s not an issue… and evidently the kind of money that makes that non an issue can only obtained in places like the US.
