Right on. Looking into ways of stopping this from happening has given me a very real feeling of desperation. There's no real way for an EU citizen to stop laws like these from getting accepted. No option for a referendum, no option for a veto, the best bet is getting the EU court to annul it, but that takes decades.

EU citizens CAN block this! Make your representative in the Council of the EU accountable. If 4 members veto this the legislation will not pass.
If you can't move your country representative to veto the bill, then the issue is not the EU: it's your government.
As Europeans we have to stop this very sneaky campaign of "citizens can't do anything" - it's a self fulfilling prophecy and the sharpest tool the lobbies have in the EU.
Your country's government has a say on it, and you have a say on your country's government. Make them accountable.
