    After decades of passivity and lack of decisiveness, EU as a political entity is running out of moral credit. So they better get start getting their shit together. Having said that, even the glacial pace of re-taking the initiative since 2022 gives some hope.

    Having agency with regards to the software the entire EU bureacracy and societies use is a fundamental step. Look forward seeing more of this.

      Passivity and lack of decisiveness? The EU is still mostly a club of national governments working mostly on consensus basis. Considering that, its achievements are quite incredible and unmatched world wide. Regions with much more similar countries, south America for instance, haven’t managed yet.

        This. Shitting on the EU is usually far right rhetoric and quite frankly, I’m sick of it. It is insanely difficult to make decisions on behalf of an entire continent. It’s incredible what the EU has achieved to date.

          This, the EUs achievements are insanely underestimated. Often the people critizicing the EU for lack of action also vote for parties who only want to take power from the EU… and it ain’t that much.
