It always kinda scares me when I read certain comments. They’re not numerous, but I see more of them each year. They say things like « the woke EU », or the « EUssr », or « socialist EU ».

They’re generally there when I talk about the EU regulating big tech, or fighting abuses of dominant position, and I just don’t understand how anyone can link that kind of activity to being « woke » whatever that means today, or being « socialist » (which in these people’s minds probably means « commie »).

@thelinuxEXP the EU was attacked by the far right and far left for decades in the UK, and Brexit was the result. The UK is now a basket case with a far right populist government trying to blame everything on foreigners. The bigotry that surfaced is quite shocking and the Tories like Trump are in the pocket of Putin to the tune of millions...
