I think that there is also a lack of transparency how far Julias conclusions
are bended to discussing processes within the movement/party. Nobody really
knows how she worked her report out. And we should not disregard: That is a
report. Nothing else. Not a plea, not a legislative proposal. Maybe, what
seems to be "cautious" is just realistic and she plans for a longer time
than a lot of us would like to wait. We don't know it, hence we are not
inside the EU-structures. "Disingenuous" matches the content of the report,
but it is blaming her, not to fulfill idealistic dreams. The question is:
Fulfilling idealistic dreams, is that, what she is elected to, or is that
something, she really can realize? Or does she just see the limits of her
actual political range?

I agree absolutely. We leave an impact to be unprofessional, irrational, big
kids playing around and unable to solve problems.

Not only forbid criticizing representatives. Public shit avalanches against
any pirate with a opinion, we don't understand are a clear NoGo.
If we were smart, we would close any rights of irrespective people to
communicate via our platforms and tell them clearly, that they are not
welcome in the movement. At least here in Germania we still have the
approach to be open for anybody, no matter how she/he treats other people.
A damned mistake.

I think you are pointing out a severe problem. We still let act people in
the movement act like pubescent crowd of high school pupils.

In the related case yesterday I heared the phrase of "Stutenbissigkeit",
what means the female horses behavior of jealousy.
