The EU is gone, Europe is a Orwellian nightmare set up to be a colony of greater US/Israel.
New legislation just passed : To repost any item from Russia Today - even it if is completely true, or a World Cup feature - is a crime in the EU.
From Arnaurd Bertrand:
This is properly insane: quite literally the worst example of censorship I've ever heard of anywhere.
I checked the actual ruling (which you can see here: courthousenews.com/wp-content/upl…) and, to be clear, it isn't just censorship in the conventional sense - blocking access to a website or removing content from platforms - this is the criminalization of information relayed by private citizens, with prison sentences attached.
And the most insane aspect if that it does NOT matter if the information relayed is accurate or not. It just matters that it originates from RT or other media outlets banned in the EU.
In other words, truth isn't a defense anymore in the EU, it literally doesn't matter. It's purely based on the identity of the speaker.
The ruling is actually explicit about this: the regulation, quoted by the Court says that the prohibition applies to "any content," and they draw no distinction based on what the content actually says. If it originates from banned outlets, it's banned.
It is, quite simply, a complete unraveling of the entire post-Enlightenment legal and philosophical project where entire generations of Europeans fought to move from "who says it" to "is it true" as the operative question.
Think about the absurdity of it: if RT publishes a video saying the sky is blue and you share it on a publicly accessible website in the EU, you'd fall within the scope of this ruling, making you liable to criminal prosecution.

Got a 404 error on that link 🤣
They have violated their own charterof fundamental rights, see article 11 of the EU 

The EU’s normalization of reposting Russian content represents a chilling surrender to geopolitical influence – a necessary sacrifice for surveillance and control. It's a strategic blunder disguised as compliance.
I actually thought the 404 was ironic 🙄
Canada close behind

Russia derangement syndrome.
They all have spike protein in the brain.
Makes sense in a war situation to censor enemy’s content but it’s still a bad precedent because EU is not technically at war with Russia.
But then again, “war is peace and freedom is slavery” in the EU that loves to gaslight.
Free speech is critical, and you’re losing.

It must be about time to set up a whole bunch of RT mirrors in the EU.
Sad state of affairs
