I've seen brexit and similar movement supporters give the reason that they don't want other countries deciding on their policies and they want autonomy of their own government. Very less times, I've seen it be because of lack of democracy. The movements looking to exit EU will not be happy even if it becomes more democratic
@Adam Filinovich It is particularly hard in the US.. In Europe luckily there are quite some electoral systems that allow new parties to play a serious role.
Well duh it’s because they rig elections against Pirates and the Feds are afraid of them there’s no doubt they stole elections and pirates won lots of congressional seats but their dirty tactics in the end won
Pirate Party Austria is and always has been a very active member of PPI and we endorse and enjoy being part of our international community. It's nice to have friends around the world.
I'd love to vote for these guys, but I don't remember ever seeing them on a ballot in Ireland. Maybe they were there and I'd just never heard of them, but also the idea of being so beholden to the list of EU parties my local political parties pair up with is pretty frustrating.
Countries with parliaments are in fact oligarchies (few lead). In order to be a true democracy, the decisions of the Parliament should be submitted to the approval of the citizens. The democratic aspect is a side effect in societies where economies have a strong competitive aspect, where the interests of those who hold economic power in society are divergent. Thus, those with money, and implicitly with political power in society, are supervising each other so that none of them have undeserved advantages due to politics. Because of this, countries with large mineral resources, like Russia and Venezuela (their share in GDP is large), do not have democratic aspects, because a small group of people can exploit these resources in their own interest. In poor countries, the main resource exploited may even be the state budget, as they have converging interests in benefiting, in their own interest, from this resource. This is what is observed in Romania, Bulgaria, when, no matter which party comes to power, the result is the same. The solution is modern direct democracy in which every citizen can vote, whenever he wants, over the head of the parliamentarian who represents him. He can even dismiss him if most of his constituents consider that their interests are not right represented
Male, born in 1981, is called Malik Al-Masry, mangolo a resident of Damascus. He works as a drug dealer in secret. As for the public, he works in a company that sells beauty products in Damascus in cooperation with officers working in the Political Security Division in Damascus. He owns a bank account in Europe in dollars in Belgium and Holland, and possible elsewhere, and bought European citizenship for freedom of movement between Damascus and Europe via Lebanon,
This made me curious to search about the branch of this party from my country, Romania. What I found on their site made me sad. Full of blatant conspiracies presented in an aggressive and unprofessional way. I hope this doesn't sum up all of the other branches and it's only the case in this situation because of the socio-demographic reasons of the area.
It’s not the impression that we have of the parties. We haven’t looked into the Romanian branch to be honest, but the ones we looked at were serious parties. What do you think of the European branch?
@@afgor1088 All the mainstream ones.... vaccines, Soros, billionaires rule the world, evil international organisations, etc. and all kinds of crazy ramblings. On their blog there is an article where they quote Dugin on how Zelensky does not see himself as the president of Ukraine because he is the antichrist and tries to bring the world in nuclear war. So yeah......
If I wanted to split the left's vote and prevent the Greens coming to power in circumstances tailor-made for their success, I guess I would be pushing the Pirate party...
Total bs. The german pirate MEP Patrick Breyer was the ONLY german MEP who always voted against surveillance and restrictions on freedom. The greens not. And the german greens and volt accept donations from oligarchs, which is basically corruption.
The lack of coverage for the reformists in the media is criminal.
It is peculiar isnt it.. You'd think a new movement should be covered at least a bit in the news.. I mean, it's called the news.
Especially because a lack of coverage on possible reform but a lot of coverage on abandonment makes the EU appear as unreformable.
yes it is.

I’m glad to see the Pirate Party is starting to do well in Czechia. Unfortunately it hasn’t really taken off (edit: yet) in the USA

There's some movement. I took a look at Thomas Massie's district in 4th district of Kentucky.
He's back!
Took us a while, but you'll get two more videos in this series in the next two weeks ;)
Awesome
Oh my. What a pleasant surprise 😀
YES a Ciceroni video!!
YES a Ciceroni viewer! (viewer sounds a bit impersonal but I haven't got a better word..)
Thanks for your enthusiasm. We'll try to be more reliable..😁
Consumer? Public? Willing receptacle of information?
@@MijmerMopper haha the last option sounds particularly catchy :)

Let them know :) Maybe they don't know there are many Irish pirates ready to board.. We'll never run out of dad-jokes with this one..

0:57 what is the music here?
The music is by ‘FattyMonk’. You can find some of his music on Spotify ;)
Will there be a Volt Video too?

Thanks for the information. But what do we do with it? Should we make a video on Europol next?
Never Shell we Die and we Come to Overcome - ProPiraten
It's a big expectation to ask them we should never die.. (but hey, go immortality!)

Are you suggesting we are doing this? Cause we'd be honoured that someone thinks our videos can push anything, let alone political shifts :)
@@Ciceroni1 nah, not necessarily. An algorithm might though.

The German Pirate Party's basic concept is "let us download free stuff!"
