    The EU is crap but it not existing isn’t the better alternative tbh. I think way more EU countries would fall to fascism if the EU stopped existing, I’d take neoliberal bureaucrats over my local fascists any time.

      On the flip side, consider how far the rest of the world advanced after Europe imploded itself in the 20th century. Perhaps we’d all be better off if the EU imploded again and the US followed thereafter.

          I’m sorry brother when I see you use those 3 words in the same sentence I can’t help but feel like politics is just an internet game to you, you’re not an “accelerationist” you’re probably nothing. Good luck

            So uh what am I to do here exactly to be the One True Leftist in Europe according to you? My only local real leftist org is kinda crap (I’ve seen for myself), leftism in Europe in general is extremely weak, save for Greece and maybe France, and that’s a big maybe.

            If EU liberalism gets deposed it’s not gonna get any better here and my life and the lives of many of my loved ones is gonna get a lot worse, why the fuck would I cheer that on exactly?

              I’m not telling you what to do I’m telling you you’re wrong about the EU “stopping fascism”

              My only local real leftist org is kinda crap

              But if I WERE telling you what to do, I’d say join that one and hopefully talk to people in real life. It’s better than thinking about things like “accelerationism”

                It’s not stopping fascism, it’s just a better state of affairs than fascism, literally the “lesser evil”. Stop putting words in my mouth.

                I did. Some people were cool, some sucked, the org itself is irreparably poisoned by petty infighting tho.

                Maybe do something similar yourself instead of tut-tutting people about not posting enough eu-cool emojis on hexbear.net

                  Oh I’m sorry I didn’t realize you were making a a “lesser evil” argument, very astute point I’ll defend the EU (hitler’s wet dream) now as the only alternative to fascism

                  Very silly thing to say, I don’t care about emojis I replied to opinions here which I disagreed with, if I had agreed with them I wouldn’t have

        They always have. Doesn’t mean they’re not preferable to the actual fascists considering how abysmal the state of the left is in the EU right now.
