That's an unfair characterisation of EU. Hungary and Slovakia didn't join under their current fascist governments. They weren't fascist when they joined in 2004.

Kicking them out isn't easy unless there is unanimity. Unfortunately EU requires this kind of quorum for the big decisions, which is kind of a safeguard to precisely avoid going full fascist for the whole EU due to a minority of countries.

> They weren't fascist when they joined in 2004.

And they still aren't by any definition of the word fascism

It's 2025 we should invent new terms for new things, not everything bad is "nazi" or "fascist"
