Why do they even need to label certain candidates? To me it just looks like propaganda, or some sort of group signalling. It's subconsciously saying the following: "Hey don't trust this one candidate because we don't lik

It goes both ways though. The EU funds all sorts of groups, in particular NGOs. Those groups then do publicity stunts and pay for advertising during important events. There's so many players on the scene that there's little point

It reminds me of the early 2000s when websites would initiate a pop-up ad and the first thing I would do is automatically close it without looking. Thankfully browser makers stepped in and blocked them automatically. That's my hope. Th
