At this point I’m starting to worry that all this push to distance Europe from America will eventually strengthen some “European Nationalism” or something along that line and we’ll be right back to the same problems in a few decades, just switching sides once more.
That can still become very problematic though. Nationalists usually lean heavily on western culture and white supremacy, something Europe has plenty of. It’s inevitable that the alt right will have a growing presence and influence in the EU parliament as they grow in each member state.

This is not new though. The EUPL have existed for almost two decades.
That’s why I’m also always trying to push the benefits of open data/source/etc onto my employers. It sometimes works too.
It’s up to us as individuals to also make a fuss about this stuff here in EU. I love EU but I’m not blindly trusting every corpo that’s from EU.
Choose local (in our case European/EU), but not blindly and naively.
Not too worried. Europe is a great mix of countries with lots of diversity.
Europeanism, it’s not one nation.
Which is fine. Europe is a world leader on globalism. Our -ism is about being proud of that.
