The whole debate over autonomy basically loses its teeth once you join the European Union.
Think about it this way: the wealthier nations end up subsidizing the ones that are still catching up. For instance, look at Poland—last year, they pulled in about 5 billion euros more from the EU budget than what they actually paid in.
When you’re seeing those kinds of numbers, the idea of local autonomy doesn't really change the bottom line much.

Don't sweat it; Kajin has his sights set on the European Parliament.

Look, Kajin is an American nationalist. For real, did you seriously not hear him talking yesterday? 😁

To all my fellow Americans living in California
HOW CAN YOU EVEN THINK LIKE THAT? HONESTLY, SHAME ON YOU
At the end of the day, we are all Americans. We should be looking out for one another instead of trying to carve out little autonomous zones within America
We’re a small country—we don't even hit five million people—yet you act as if we have a population of five hundred million
I don't know what's happening to America lately. Where are the patriots from the early nineties? Where is the national pride? Wake up
I have a dream that one day, every single American will truly be proud of their homeland
