ELI5: What is Pirate Party and why is it so popular?
gpt
I think it started in Sweden and then the name got adopted in other countries. Basically it's a political party that is pro-freedom, free sharing of information, knowledge, more civil rights, pro people actively participating in the governing of a country, etc. Democracy as it is supposed to be by definition.
