We need taxes for all - also the super-rich.

"Tax the rich" is an official EU petition. The EU Parliament has to deal with it when successful.

7 EU countries must reach the quorum Check yours in the chart and share!

The petition calls for the introduction of a wealth tax on very large fortunes. Sign now

Also, I wonder what causes this split...

My guess is that it's mainly just missing Information?

Yes but I wonder what is causing such a discrepancy

As somone who lives in Poland: Marxism is not a thing here.

Hmm, that could be it. Although I support it and I'm a centrist

I support it and I'm a centrist

By supporting it alone, you'd be considered a far left there.

Yeah, in Hungarian news sites, I haven't seen it and besides, average voter is extremely skeptical about these kind of petitions

Portugal is not eastern for sure. I'm pretty sure this hasn't been news anywhere and I've only seen talks about this petition on the fediverse.

Most people are used to get fucked around here I guess. Also there's the idea that many think they are the rich ones and don't consider these kind of things I guess.

Right wing brainwashing I guess helps.

Actually I like that it's a sort of race to see who gets there first

Surely the Eastern bloc has a ton of EUthusiasts too...
