Journalist sacked for doing actual journalism at EU press conference (europeanjournalists.org)

News is from last year, but it's still dystopic for anyone that missed it:

At a European Commission press briefing in Brussels on 13 October, Nunziati asked the spokesperson Paula Pinho: “You’ve repeatedly said that Russia should pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine. Do you think Israel should also pay for the reconstruction of Gaza, given that it destroyed much of the Strip and its civilian infrastructure?”

on 27 October, the journalist received a letter terminating his working relationship with the news agency, which, however, did not specify the reasons for this decision.

The Agenzia Nova news agency told Fanpage.it that Nunziati’s question was “completely out of place and technically incorrect” and had created “embarrassment for the agency”

Europe is also descending into the grips of fascism,

Absolutely. :( And it is mostly the centrist / conservative parties embracing facist policies, while most of the conversative voters are morons pretending they are still voting for a legitimate party.

I always get a bunch of downvotes. Especially on communities like !europe@feddit.org

My experience - formerly from reddit - and here is that "europe" channels are the European version of MAGA idiots. Those could be wholesome places, but instead they are infested with morons and trolls. I suspect in part because trolls that do not speak any (other) European language can blend right in with English trolling.
