    That’s what you call representative democracy. The EU is not one person. It’s run by thousends of politicians in hundreds of parties and dozens of countries.

    Expecting a unified viewpoint of all of these is simplemindend.

    Nobody would say “All governments ever of country X is like this and that”.

    Because on the local level most people understand that the government changes when a different party is elected and thus there is no “values/goals continuity” between different parties. If you have a left-wing government after a right-wing government, you’d expect some changes.

    But with the EU, for some reason, many people think it’s just a single, constant person who runs it and keeps changing their agenda.
