Oh, really? Even more opaque. You don’t need to be of voting age (??) in order to be an activist or political in some sort of way. I’m pretty sure that Greta Thunberg wasn’t when she became famous.
Anyway, if this thread leaves you frustrated then maybe just don't participate in it?
The EU has 100's of millions of people, not all of them are in a position to bring this kind of effort because it requires bringing suit (which children may be able to do but don't generally do) and a very large chunk of a lifetime's worth of dedication. So in an attempt to roughly indicate the order of magnitude of difference between the number of people that could have taken action but didn't I used the 300 million figure. I haven't checked it for accuracy and Greta Thunberg notwithstanding the fact that you bring her up as an example is exactly because such individuals are so rare which is exactly the point that I was making.
Without Schrems for privacy and without Thunberg for climate change these subjects would get less attention than they do, and both of them have been instrumental in making meaningful change when in fact both of these subjects should concern the vast majority of that 300 million, give or take.
