Well this should be a pretty non-Partisan WTF moment, but Articles 11 and 13 got passed in the EU parliament.
I have a hard time understanding why this is a problem. I understand the pros and cons. But I am just not on board with the butthurt and rage.
I will say that I think intellectual property, as a revenue generating concept, is outdated. Laws like these are the death throes of trying to cling onto human concepts that predate the Information Age.

Pollution will kill us before global warming would ever be a significant issue for humanity.
Pollution and climate change are linked though. Tackling one addresses the other.
Honestly though, if it was re-marketed as 'pollution change' or similar, the retard deniers might be more willing to jump onboard.

Sounds like you don't understand the topic at all and just made another stupid statement. hmm
It really just means the End Of Free Speech and Confiscation of Created material to be misused by those not responsible for its creation. I could point out that it is YOU that is making the "Stupid Comments" because of your willingness to be Brainwashed via your political leanings, but that would just be stating the obvious
so I won't waste my time.

Credible citation needed.
Because this citation literally says the exact opposte of what you claim and it even states the big tech companies concede the point that it protects copyrighted materials/IP:
Though almost everyone—including tech giants and internet pioneers—concede that changes to copyright law meant to ensure that creators get paid for their work are needed...
I mean...it's right there kind of glaringly obvious that you have no idea what you're talking about and you're an idiot.
And my agenda? Upgrade how we treat IP so that IP can be consumed and used and money made off of it in the Information Age instead of treating IP like we are still in the 1900s.
