Increasingly it does look like Europe really is going dark.
Right-wing populism is on the rise through the whole continent, it‘s scary. I can feel it here in switzerland and can see it in neighbouring countries like france and germany.
I don’t understand why everyone’s so hell bent on turning the EU into yet another authoritarian mass surveillance state.
My guess is funding from Russia/China and libertarian foundations run by Rupert Murdoch and the Koch brothers
Here in Finland the Left Alliance increased votes by 10% while True Finns(hard right party) decreased support massively across the whole country. Only one true finn got voted in.
So at least we got that going for us…
The Swedish Social Democratic party (supposedly staunchly left wing) are the ones behind Chat Control 2.0. So just voting for left is not a guarantee we actually get sane MPs in the parliament.
