I'm suggesting the problem may be your own thinking.
When you were a citizen of a member country, did you think of other countries that wanted to join as "supplicants"?
If so, then I submit that your problem might be ingrained imperialism.

"Supplicants" is a fortiori imperialist thinking.
My understanding is that as a British permanent resident of the EU, I would be given a vote, were the UK to apply for readmission.
If the current constitutional arrangements & asssociated dysfunction held, I would vote against readmission. Too much bother.
A "medium-sized, prosperous, unremarkable European country" such as an iScot is another matter, of course.

For the love of God, don't try to brand it as "Chat Control".
I saw that and immediately thought that this was some sort of industry astroturfing to prevent the EU regulating shitty LLMs.
