It will never be. It cannot be.

We all know how slow a democracy is. It takes a major event or crisis to stir up politicians to act in a timely manner and with vigor.

Now imagine the absolute dumpster fire that would need to burn to get 27 democracies to get their shit together. I doubt anything short of a full-scale invasion of EU territory by Russia would do.

I really hope Europe finally gets it's shit together and dominates the world. It's been 60 years and you all have been pacifist pussies the entire time and allowed Russia to take over everything.

Yeah! Bring back the slave trade! Bring back the pillaging! Bring back the colonization! Just like before WW2! MEGA! Make Europe Great Again!

@BaroqueInMind @bleistift2 pacifist because the org literally exists to stop everyone in it blowing each other up though

And yet here you are, all of Europe in an existential crisis because a dumb fuck Russian oligarch has manipulated useful idiots within your org to blow you up from the inside anyway.
