    In Poland majority of people like EU because we are the biggest beneficients of EU funds. We are in very strategic place between Germany and Russia so they simply bribed entire country just like that. For example EU subsidies to agriculture did a helluva number to our agriculture, and there is basically no infrastructure or social project which is not partially invested by EU - without EU there would be very little infrastructure or social programs, like before 2004.

    Also, our country is such an obscurant rightwing cathofash hole that EU is seen by all libs and succdems as being very much left of our status quo - and they are still correct with that, though Ukraine war is slowly starting to change that view (but our entire mainstream is even more proukrainian than EU).

    The only people against EU are communists, libertarians and various alt-right. Conservatives and protofash whine about it all the time, but it's insincere, at least until the cash will stop flowing in.

      Also why does Aljazeera go out of its way to mention how russia passed a similar bill in 2012 but not how america passed the same bill but in 1938. (The American Foreign Agents Registration Act) :thinking:

        Not only that, they ignore the fact that Russia passed their law in response to the U.S. suddenly deciding to heavily enforce their FARA law specifically against Russia

        when uncle sam finances political orgs in other countries he's bringing dumbocracy, freeze peaches and freedumb, when other countries finance political action in the usa they are trying to subvert our perfect system.
