It's like waving a disapproving finger at a brick wall, has always been my criticism.
Protests shouldn't be so easily tossed in a bin. If you aren't a problem, then no one has to listen to your message.
Petitions in Europe are required to be discussed when they reach a certain threshold. The platform does not matter.
Do all that reach that threshold get discussed though?
Yes.
I read up on it but there doesn't even seem to be a threshold: https://commission.europa.eu/get-involved/engage-eu-policymaking/petition-eu_en
Maybe I was confused with a specific country requiring a threshold. Or maybe there are thresholds for how high up it needs to get discussed.
