Lol you must be joking. Most individual rights are long gone in Europe.
Giving people individual rights is just one of many paths towards having a government incapable of doing many things.
By what measurements? It seems most of Europe has such unrestricted government that it is borderline fascism.
In what way? It doesn't seem that way to me.

European government powers are shaped differently than US government powers. Spiky in different spots. So, the fact that some aspects of European governments have more control over the populace, is compatible with European governments overall being more limited in the actions they can take.
