The EU is not a democracy.
They're closer to a guy who keeps pressuring a girl to sleep with him despite her saying no.
5 times now.
But he won't stop.
We're at the stage where he's giving her alcohol and making her drunk so she struggles to say no.
Over the last 3 years, Chat Control and similar scanning measures have been defeated or blocked 5 times.
The citizens of the EU and members of EU Parliament have made it abundantly clear - they don't want Chat Control.
This latest attempt by the EU is the slimiest one yet. Revive dead legislation that was already defeated, flip the passing criteria so that majority don't need to SUPPORT it, majority need to DEFEAT it, and as the cherry on top, hold that vote on the very last day before Parliament members go on summer break so that many don't show up. Oh and if they don't show up, it counts as a vote to pass Chat Control.
You can dress it up in as many legal technicalities and loopholes as you want, what the EU is doing here is fundamentally undemocratic.
No means no.
And if you ever saw a guy pressuring a girl into sleeping with him with disgusting tactics after she said no THIS many times, you would consider him to be a rapist.
So congrats to the EU on adopting rapist strategies to your governance.
Control our borders, not our chats.
The EU has descended into anarchotyranny: it leaves our cities unsafe while trying to read every private message we send.
Our campaign fights for both secure borders and freedom of speech.
Sign now and join us in Brussels on July 15th.
Estes são os eurodeputados portugueses que votaram A FAVOR do chat control
Não lhes dêem descanso
• Sebastião Bugalho (EPP)
• Paulo Cunha (EPP)
• Paulo do Nascimento Cabral (EPP)
• André Franqueira Rodrigues (S&D)
• Sérgio Gonçalves (S&D)
• Sérgio Humberto (EPP)
• Ana Catarina Mendes (S&D)
• Ana Miguel Pedro (EPP)

Das ist Roberta Metsola, die korrupte Präsidentin des EU-Parlaments.
Und verantwortlich für die Tricksereien zur 3. Abstimmung über die Ausnahmeregelung der Chatkontrolle.
Sie reiht sich neben v. d. Leyen und Kallas ein in die Phalanx der Zerstörer Europas.
Diz não à UE
A UE cortou o microf a um deputado que estava a denunciar que a Chat Control viola as regras do próprio Parlamento. Vão tentar aprová-la antes das férias de verão, quando muitos deputados já estão em casa. Querem espiar legalmente todas as tuas mensagens privadas.
Bad take.
The EU should stand for privacy, like it has always done. It's one of the defining values of the modern EU.
Protecting children can happen without blanket mass surveillance, experts have said these measures are ineffective and a breach of privacy.
#ChatControl masterclass in undermining democratic legitimacy.
EU Parliament rejected mass-scanning of citizens' messages. Its president's answer? Use an exceptional procedure & force a new vote under rules that make rejection much harder than approval.
