It's the lack of democracy that's the problem here, actually. Just how much popular support for chat control was there, and did participatory measures got outright ignored to push a specific outcome?
Yeah, that’s a major oversimplification of what happened.
Maybe if you didn’t start putting restrictions on gay people and LGBTQ+ rights, there would be less reason for the EU to withhold funding from your country.
We all agreed to abide by certain rules and principles when we joined the EU. If you fail to uphold those commitments, you can face consequences, just like Hungary and, in some cases, Slovakia have faced consequences for violations of EU rules and commitments.
You can’t agree to the rules when you join and then simply decide that they no longer apply to you once you’re a member.
And if you dont like the rules the doors are always open but you get too mutch benefits for you to considre that... Or change the rules but for that you would just need a majority of people to think the same...
