    It’s not like von der Leyen is not involved in corruption scandals or is not pushing a surveillance state.

    It’s not about the leader, it’s the system.

    The EU is currently neoliberaling itself into irrelevancy, so if that’s your standard for competency then… yeah.

    The right is definitely getting stronger in europe too. Just because Giorgia Meloni is a woman doesn’t mean she won’t do horrible shit.The cruelty of our ruling classes only sees gender when they can wield it against others like a cudgel.

        I didn’t realize this was in reference to the leader of the EU and assumed it was in regard to europe as a whole having female leaders be much more common. My fault for not reading closely enough. My point stands however, Meloni was just a convenient example

            You support EUs neoliberal, imperialist capitalist Ursula the Cecaelia based on her gametes. That’s pretty TERFy even if unintentional.

              That’s really jumping to conclusions, I’m just saying she behaves better than those listed authoritarian men. Sure I would prefer a leftist over her. Though I haven’t heard of her being transphobic.

                You are being a TERF, not Ursula, by suggesting gender matters when it comes to leadership.

                  The most important thing is someone’s character, I prefer Bernie Sanders over Kamala Harris. In this situation I’m joking how the woman acts smarter on the world stage.
