I think EU federation is pretty good, but I feel very dumbfounded every time dumb decisions that do not benefit member states are made, too much empathy too early I guess.

The EU is pretty good at its intended purpose, which is to tie together European countries in a non-hostile and economically-productive way.

But it seems pretty obviously not very good at any real executive action. Which is, again, by design.

How do you think the EU (con)federation is pretty good given the remaining of your comment?

[dandanua]

I wouldn't say so. The first years of the largest war in Europe since WWII have shown that a leaderless EU is incapable of making important decisions crucial to its own survival, as a fallen Ukraine would have led to a divided EU where many countries would be governed by authoritarian fascist regimes, such as the one in Hungary led by Orban.

I feel like you're a bit tendentious and exaggerated in your assessments.

People don't get a say in the people's decision that they didn't elect. I thought it's pretty spot on.
