It’s hard for me not to see this as power play by the unelected bureaucrats in Brussels.
Their “misinformation” is probably opposition parties commenting about Ukraine, internal politics, etc.
- ExoticPearTree 3y agoIt is exactly that, misinformation is anything that goes against the party line.
- thsksbd 3y agoSure, but it was also very predictable. Even 20 years ago individual European states started wielding the censorship bludgeon to keep their societies from exploding. Heck, has there ever been freedom of speech in Europe? Just consider the classic films France has censored (paths of glory, Battle for Algiers) over the last 70 years while allowing the most deprived smut unchallenged. The UK's censorship has a wiki entry (including reservoir dogs and Battleship Potemkin!!). And those are the most liberal speech countries in Europe.
