Aren't Europeans supposed to be the good guys?

There are no "good guys" or "bad guys" in geopolitics, just shades of grey. On quite a few topics, the EU is better, but any government is capable of doing stupid shit.

the EU commission is absolutely dumb and definitely not on the side of the people though. by the way, it's also not democratically elected.

No, the EU is just as much liberal capitalism as the US. They have a better social safety net and looked better in comparison.
