ChatGPT

Agree

No

The European People's Party might lean towards disagreeing with the ban on political advertising on social media due to their general stance on free speech and minimal regulatory intervention in the market. However, they are also committed to protecting European values, democracy, and the integrity of elections. Given the increasing concerns over misinformation, foreign interference in elections, and the impact of targeted political advertising on democratic processes, the EPP might see some level of regulation as necessary. Their support for regulations like the GDPR shows they are not against regulating tech companies for the greater good. Thus, while they might not fully support a complete ban, they could be open to some form of regulation to ensure transparency and fairness in political advertising.

Disagree

Yes

The European People's Party (EPP), being a center-right political group, generally supports the principles of free speech and market economy. Historically, the EPP has not been a strong advocate for imposing strict regulations on businesses, including social media companies, unless it's for the protection of EU citizens' rights and data privacy, as seen in their support for the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Banning political advertising could be seen as limiting political expression and the ability of parties and candidates to communicate with the electorate, which might not align with the EPP's broader values of freedom of expression and liberal democracy.
