⚠️ part two I think because those 👆 elections are important to global stability, plus the fact that Canada 🇨🇦 and the EU 🇪🇺 are forming a closer partnership, everyone on social media might want to be on the alert for foreign accounts designed to influence political opinions and election outcomes . Example: recently two anti-EU accounts were trying to use aggressive fearmongering tactics to change my opinion about the EU. I think it's good to be aware #Fediverse #Mastodon

There's definitely influence campaigns - particularly around time of elections - but IMO most of the anti-EU sentiments you'll here places like OnHere is just people who don't understand it that well.... Americans particularly tend to think the EU is sort of like the US except more gay and retarded. People living in EU countries know that the EU is almost more like the UN or the WTO, it just doesn't really affect your daily life. All of the stupidity is thanks entirely to member state governments - and if anything, the EU is somewhat protecting them from themselves. Regarding Canada, I'm increasingly of the opinion that neither the US, nor the EU, is a solution or a cause of Canada's problems, and that Canada's biggest problem is The Crown (City of London) using it as an ATM / resource colony, and the best thing Canada could do is tell them to pound sand. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
