No, we expect them to regulate a multi-billion dollar industry because that’s what governments do. Healthcare is a multi billion dollar industry. So is agriculture, and many others.
What you’re missing is that after Brexit the EU is desperate to appear to citizens that they’re listening and this would be such an easy win that yeah, I really expected them to not only listen but actually get their fingers out of their collective arseholes and do something about it.
Blah blah funding. Sure, start by targeting games that sell over X units or Y euros in revenue.
If the article is correct then it’s a massive missed opportunity.
Have you read what a citizens initiative is? Have you read about the other successful ones? or do you just spew bullshit online before reading more deeply?
Give me an example of a “successful one”. I’ve read only two initiatives have lead to law changes. One on the minimum cage sizes for farm animals being slightly bigger and one on banning pesticides that ended up with slightly more oversight on their use. All the others that passed only resulted in a statement by the government with no legal changes.
Did anyone actually expect the EU to regulate a multibillion dollar industry because it’s trending on social media?
I mean to encourage people to actually do something as sharing a post on social media isn’t activism.
No of course not. Only what you approve as activism is activism 👌 And using official channels is certainly not activism.
Isn’t that called “lobbying”?
TIL voting is lobbying
Voting is activism?
Discussion on the internet is dead. You ask a question and people respond with meme pictures and downvotes instead of a point.
Lol what a hot take.

That’s 2 out of 10, not some hundreds. So if we’re going by the odds, SKG has a 1 in 5 chance of getting a law passed. Better than nothing.
They made it further than my country ever will.
Nope, and the suckers who did can suck big, fat ones.
