Please come joins us. EU can preserve your fishing waters.
Said it once I‘ll say it again: A referendum is a really bad idea for a representative democracy in times of fake news and large misinformation campaigns. The far right loves referendums because it‘s easier to manipulate the masses around a single issue in a short period of time. And that‘s exactly why you should be suspicious of them.
I get your point but this always has been the case. Misinformation was made into an art during WWII and hasn’t gone since. Haven’t we had any democratic decisions since?
The point is that we need to kill the misinformation, not referendums
I have expressed it once and shall repeat it again: a referendum is an atrocious idea in times of the printing press and foreign influence crusades. The royalists fancy plebiscites for it allows them to mislead the common folk into expressing the existence of the monarchy as “will of the people”. And that’s exactly why they shall not be trusted.
Oh sorry this is /c/Europe, not /c/YUROP
The same can be said for democracy in general. Disinformation is carbon monoxide in the bloodstream of civil society, and LLMs (“AI”) accelerate it.
Are there any reliable sources that LLMs accelerated disinformation? Naturally I’m on the lookout for disinformation.
It’s about time. Since the icelandic people are so dependent on fishing, I would even be fine with it, if they got some kind of special deal that protects their domestic fishing waters.
Given that their main fishing rival, the UK, is no longer in the EU, it should hopefully be easier.
The UK never really relied much on fishing. We’d rather sell most of our quota to Spain and then whine about the Spanish “stealing” “our” fish…
Well, at least the EU is no longer stealing your NHS money and you have a well funded and amazing healthcare system now with next to no wait times.
You do understand the other guy hates Brexit right?
Of course I do, which is why I doubled down on his/her sentiment with my sarcastic post. I was merely making fun of Farage and the Brexiteers as well.
I believe the trouble with special deals, is future resentment.
Nah fuck this. Gonna get fucked over by Fascy types
For fuck sake
?
What’s not to get. I’m disappointed.
It’s gonna get twisted by fascy types through misinformation and advertising so the vote ends up “don’t join EU”
