… considers? Just do it. Jesus.
They first have to see our god-king’s reaction then act appropriately.
They have a concept of quitting.
Wowowow… it’s an EU agency… First they need to issue a communication that sets outs a vision for a roadmap to create a framework for an alliance that will create an agenda for the steering committee that will issue a request for a study of merits.
Then they can schedule to do something.
Firewall block Xitter, then flatten san fran with 30 nukes just to be sure
Didn’t they move their operations to the city of Gridfailure, TX?
Flatten it too, can’t be too cautious
The kicker is that in any member state that’d be politics trying to bury something in procedure, while on the European level it’s the only way to get anything done. Leave out a step and the thing just fizzles because noone even knows about it.
…not, I mean, quitting X. But in general.
The EU has been designed so that no one in any position can abuse his (or her) powers or at least make it extremely difficult to do so, with an added layer of mistrust between the states requiring even more checks and balances so it can lead to some ridiculously complicated processes since not much can be done without a majority consensus.
Deciding to leave twitter or not will lead to a barrage of comments from all the countries, so I’m not even surprised that even that decision has to be carefully managed.
I’m poking fun but for all it’s flaws the EU has achieved a surprising amount of things.
You’re basically just describing the flaws of democracies.
Yes, the EU can be slow to move on some points, but others they are the first. And they mostly get things right, because they use much time on thinking it through. And no, they’re not right every time, but I believe they are more than others.
Why is anyone considering staying on X?
Why did anyone join it in the first place?
It USED to be a decent source for news and updates on stuff but that’s long gone. I deleted my account just before that weird billionaire guy bought it and don’t regret it one bit.
Well I mean it’s a disease agency. Missinformation on X is bad. Their job however is about getting the word out to people of what to do to avoid diseases. People don’t switch networks to follow their favorite health agencies. So… if the job is to warn people about serious shit… it kind of is important to be where the people are currently and try and get the facts heard among the misinformation.
I don’t think the people still on X are going to be listening to the EU disease agency account.
They should (as you say) go where the people are… Which is threads and BlueSky. Follow the crowd.
No, they should be where no entity outside of European jurisdiction can influence their messaging.
The EU commission has their own Mastodon instance. That’s how all public services should do it.
The whole reason Twitter was popular was to be informed by the people you follow.
No one that is still there gives any sort of fuck about correct information, just bail. Stop legitimizing this Nazi bullhorn for God’s sake.
Shut down the Xitter infection
They have bluesky account as well https://bsky.app/profile/ecdc-eu.bsky.social, threads https://www.threads.net/@ecdc.eu and mastodon https://mastodon.social/@[email protected] But, the mastodon and threads seems abandoned.
Considers? This is not news worthy. This is like showing up to a skin head rally and announcing you are considering friending a black person. Grow a spine and do the right thing.
If your business uses X send a letter to the head of marketing and your ceo asking them to stop or start a petition.
“considers”. the human race is very very stupid, and in the end, will be it’s own undoing.
Like RFK Jr won’t reinstate it and make it “the official communication channel”?
