central government (EU) control
puppet states

Can you prove that the european parlament controls the sovereign decisions of all european countries and that european countries cannot act without the european parlament interfering?

Can you prove that the european parlament is a central goverment and therefor makes all decisions for the member nations?

Can you prove that all EU members act in the same way without any difference between their policies?

No, he knows. He's just like strodel shouting "sinner!" - just replace it with "fascist".

The EU is lead by elected officials from all countries and by the head of the european parlament who is Barosso.

Germany is simply the main giver of money to the indept countries.
Cypress wanted to borrow money. It refused to comply to the conditions, and therefor risked becoming bankrupt.

This has nothing to do with fascism. We only borrow money to those who are willing to repay it, just like everone else would.

And there is no such thing as a "oligarchy uprising"

Now will you answere the questions from beore and actualy deliver some proof that the EU is fascist!

[thesummerqueen]

How about "start your own thread" as fascism has nothing to do with intelligence, depression and realism?

Sorry to interrupt JYB's bizarro haiku marathon.

In 1988, psychologists Shelley Taylor and Jonathon Brown published an article making the somewhat disturbing claim that positive self-deception is a normal and beneficial part of most people’s everyday outlook. They suggested that average people hold cognitive biases in three key areas: a) viewing themselves in unrealistically positive terms; b) believing they have more control over their environment than they actually do; and c) holding views about the future that are more positive than the evidence can justify. The typical person, it seems, depends on these happy delusions for the self-esteem needed to function through a normal day...

David McRaney's book You Are Not So Smart promotes this view, that our minds build a version of ourselves that is much more positive than we really are. I hadn't thought about the idea that if we strip that away, we might become depressed. But it seems to be understood that people who are highly successful also tend to have an unreasonably high self-esteem and very high levels of self-confidence. The subconscious mind takes that and tries its damnedest to make it work, and in some ways it can become a self-fulfilling outlook. Perhaps the reverse is also true, although I don't know if this is accounting for clinical depression.

Actualy the opposite, by bailing out private banks the pravat saving of many were saved, most countriey bailed out their baks themselves.

The EU only bailed out Greece so far - without taking any steps which would somehow endanger private property.

The Cyprus deal was based on the fact that Cyprus was a taxhaven - and the Eu and IMF and all other giver countries agreed that Cyprus could not sustain that and gain a EU bailout. In the end Cyprus decided for keeping it`s tax haven status yet taxing big savings.

The bailout wasnt even inforced, Cyprus could have simply opted for not taking the bailout - the diference would have been that they would have been alone with their debt and no one would have helped them.

The EU parlament had nothing to do with the bailout, the conditions of the bailout were made by the IMF and the EU central bank - which is owned mainly by 3 countries - France, Germany and Italy.



Now, do you have any actual arguments to give which show how the EU is fascist?

Or are you going to throw arround more rubbish to debunk?
