You've voted for the people who elect the European Commission, though I'm sure you know that, just conveniently decided to leave it out, you're a known troll on Reddit too.
Candidates are not elected by voters but positioned.
Once people have cast their vote, members of the comission are not automatically determined but negotiated across political families, and the bureaucracy.
Time to tear down this ridiculous administrative, bureaucratic, corporative and very expensive leviathan.

And they 'magically' approved a short list of US-lobby-backed unelected personas for leadership positions, who are pushing everything ranging from the chat control law to this privacy-killing 'deregulation', while ruining Eu's trade relationships with everyone from China to Africa to boot.
The ability of citizens to vote doesn’t make the country not a dictatorship. There are many examples here, e.g., Russia, multiple middle eastern countries, etc.
