The EU was created in by people who lived through WWII and saw political and economic integration as a means to bringing peace and stability to the continent.
It is being opposed by Putin, Musk and the others who support Neo Nazis in Europe.

I was bored last night so I watched an episode of OG Star Trek where they picked up Charlie, a traumatised teenager with godlike abilities who only wants people to love him, but is incapable of doing anything funny or nice, so he just destroys everything in fits of rage to hide his shame, hey Elon

Very much underlines the point I was making yesterday about standing up to this shit regardless of the cost. When you capitulate, it doesn't make them happy, it doesn't even make them stop: they just ask why you didn't do it sooner, why you aren't being more full-throated in your cowardice.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.
