Nice way to kill a conversation and any hope of building something better.

Romania's institutions are corrupt and dysfunctional, there isn't much more to say than that. It would be nice for the EU to lean in, but it's unlikely to do so, given the rise of anti-EU populism. Those journalists need help.

Right... it’s not that power corrupts; it’s that power is good and corruption is just something that coincidentally keeps popping up everywhere where there is power.

Also, what conversation? The one-sided echo-chamber where dissenting opinions are immediately met with hostility and censorship?

Power doesn't corrupt. It's generally just narcissists and egotists who want power the most.
