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.

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.

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