@EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu bro, this account can never get a win. Even if they post something like this where most people will agree with or at least understand, the comments will nitpick stuff like the URL shortener or talk about another issue. The craziest part is that there's actually no-one from the EU commission that actually reads these comments so it doesn't matter what you post about your /pol/ issues here. Have a good day, keep on keeping on.

@onelikeandidie@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu I get your point of view,most likely all the negative comments will just reach some social media employee who who will become affected by the negativity and start to dread having to post here. It's makes for a very bad working environment for those who do the posting while not influencing policy a little bit. Criticism is rarely constructive in the comments of these accounts. I really feel sorry for whoever has to maintain this account and their mental health.

Hi @onelikeandidie@mastodon.social, don’t worry, we always read the comments and we work very closely with policy teams across the Commission who need to stay up to date with social media conversations and narratives related to their policy areas. So if you think your comments don’t matter or go unread, that’s not the case. Citizens have many ways to have their say and influence EU policymaking. You can find out more about how to do so here: https://have-your-say.ec.europa.eu/index_en
