Apologies for the meme. Just felt like so god damn European today.

As an Americam, I approve of this satire!
Wait a minute.
It… it is satire, right?
As an American, I am also now confused.
What if… what if this isn’t satire and someone REALLY thinks that being European is better than being American? No… surely it can’t be!
America is the greatest!
…RIGHT?!
Hello?..
(O_O)
America #1
(In military spending and gun deaths!)
Sad Brexit noises
The UK didn’t leave Europe lol
Yeah we did, we cut the anchor and everything :(
Europa is the best. Many countries, languages and cultures and you can live, work and travel where you want. Also, the EU is doing good things for its citizens.
I know this isn’t a popular opinion, but I love what all the EU bureaucracy does for us.
Ofc it can’t be 100.0% efficient, but why would anyone expect that, or fault it entirely for it. We should be glad we can spend like 1% of our time filling in various reports or talking with regulators or whatever - that indirectly gets us a society not run by corporations, an economy where demand is more of a driver than supply, etc.
It really shouldn’t be unpopular. EU bureaucracy might be slow, but it really does make a difference. Remember how you had to pay ridiculous roaming mobile charges if you crossed into another country? Or how you has to pay ridiculous money to transfer money between countries ridiculously slowly? Or how you had to charge that iphone with a ridiculous connector? Or how EU employment contacts stack up against US ones? Regulation works. The EU works.
