A manifesto for MEGA: Make Europe Great Again 🇪🇺 Dear EU bureaucrats, We're done. • Done with your excessive regulations. • Done with your anti-tech stance. • Done with your degrowth mindset. • Done with your socialist policies. • Done with your woke bullshit. • Done with your risk-averse attitude. It's time to Make Europe Great Again. → Celebrate Entrepreneurship We've grown complacent—taking centuries of progress for granted, as if new technology comes to us on a silver platter. We're stuck in a local maximum, blind to how much better things could be if we allowed free markets to lead the way. We're driving away our entrepreneurs with pointless red tape and silly taxes on unrealized gains. This has to STOP. Entrepreneurship should be encouraged and celebrated. → Embrace Technology Technology is the frontier of the future, but we're mere spectators on the global stage—not pioneers. This is not due to a lack of talent. Europe is home to a world-class talent pool. The problem? We’ve made it nearly impossible for entrepreneurs to thrive here. Worse still, we’ve forgotten that science and technology aren’t optional extras—they are the only tools capable of solving our most pressing problems. Actually, all problems. It’s time to change course. Time to EMBRACE technology like our lives depend on it—because they kinda do. → Seize the Opportunity with the US Trump and Musk are steering the US toward significant economic and technological growth, and potentially making humanity a multiplanetary species. Meanwhile in the EU, we're busy clicking on cookie banners. The courage and determination of the US are the spirit we need to rekindle at home. Right now, we have a rare opportunity to restructure Europe, follow in the footsteps of the US, and make the West stronger. We need our own @DOGE to undo the nonsensical regulations and cut wasteful spending. Repeal GDPR. Repeal MiCA. Repeal DMA. Repeal the AI Act. Repeal the other baloney regulations. → Rediscover Our Roots It's a shame that the land that gave birth to the Enlightenment—a beacon of reason, freedom, and innovation—is dimming its own light. We're hesitating on the brink of our potential. The Enlightenment wasn't just a historical period; it was a mindset—a commitment to challenge, to question, and to advance. We owe it to our forebears and ourselves to REIGNITE that flame. "The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom." ― John Locke, Second Treatise of Government → Europe, Wake Up! We must change our culture to one that is: • Pro-progress • Pro-tech • Pro-entrepreneurship • Pro-science • Pro-freedom of speech • Pro-free markets • Anti-overregulation We must also ensure that every immigrant who settles in Europe assimilates and adheres to these cultural values. So here we are, standing at a crossroads. Will we keep sleepwalking like zombies in a bureaucratic nightmare, or will we wake up, snap out of it, and reclaim our legacy of freedom and innovation? The choice is ours. The time is now. Make Europe Great Again!!!
