48 days left.

Get megafucked, Orban! I hope your Syrian dentist is a terrible roommate.

Just one nation can derail everything? How can that be? It’s so fucking easy to bribe just one!!! They need to fix that…

If they vote that fucker in again, the EU should trade membership of Ukraine for Hungary. They can join the new USSR.

Ah. Of course...

This is also how Texas and Florida affect America in basically the same way

Almost like handing everyone a veto wasn't a good design decision.

I mean it both is and isn't. It does help small countries from being steamrolled by the bigger ones, so it was easier to get countries to join knowing that they would not be overruled by Germany, France and Britain.
The assumption was that you would have rational actors in place that wanted to do good for their people.
It's been working well, mostly.

But also yeah, it's frustrating to see one or two bad actors mess things up.

Individual countries can still act though, it just won't be an EU coordinated thing.

Edit: Damn autocorrect.

I think they influence just the USA, not all of America

So, if a country in the EU is no longer adhering to the same mindset and practices, what is the solution? When they did , they joined the EU, but now? It seems to me that Hungary is just profiting off the rest, while actively sabotaging the whole construct.

Democracy I think. They're having an election soon.
Also put rules in place for all EU members on how to safeguard democracy, which has been happening for some time.

I still have hope for Hungary.

If Orban is reelected, the EU needs to take definitive action on Hungary and either punish its people for their choice or Hungary for no longer fulfilling the criteria of becoming an EU member

Orban can't be removed soon enough.

It was, back at the time.
Now maybe it is time to have some more complex system where some decision need unanimity, some a qualified majority (2/3 for example) and some just a simple majority with clearly written rules about what need what majority.

Is there another country with the word America in its name?

There is a continent called America with 30 countries on it.

Calling the USA America is like calling Germany Europe. It's just not the same thing. And frankly, assuming the name of the continent as if one were the only one there is quite arrogant. Like China presuming to be Asia. Just because they are very large doesn't mean the others don't matter

And only 1 has America in its name

You’re being willfully obtuse here

Calling the USA America is like calling Germany Europe.

Most small cointries wouldn't have probably joined if there wasn't a veto

@zipfile @jenesaisquoi we all can see which country you mean.We can also see the arrogance in claiming the name of a continent for your country.

If Germany was literally called the republic of Europe it would actually be appropriate

It’s not arrogance it’s literally the shorthand name of the country lol

If Germany were called Republic of Europe then, no, it wouldn't be
