X community adds a context note to Ian Miles Cheong's post: Political commentator Ian Miles Cheong posted "The farmers in Belgium should keep the EU parliament blockaded forever. Those unelected bureaucrats only waste the public’s money whenever they decide to go to 'work.'" The post included a couple of short video clips showing farm equipment blocking streets. The X community added a note to the post that read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. The European Parliament is directly elected by the citizens of the member states and is not 'unelected bureaucrats'. The next election is in June 2024. elections.europa.eu."
