It's just Kafka-esque bureaucracy of everything. It's almost impossible to get anything done and it's incredibly demotivating.

That's not "leftism", that's just unchecked, unquestioned bureaucracy.

Its 90% of european continent , ita burried under 10 layers of buirocracy ... we even have a joke here "you're gonna need a form ym1p (you're missing 1 paper) on your third visit, otherwise you wont get anything done" , doesnt translate as well tho

Yes I'm generally pro regulation and government oversight but the way European countries implement this sometimes feels like a purposeful moat to protect the rich.
