  • I don’t know in which country it works like that.

    I only have an insight in Hungary’s elections. There, from time to time there is a genuinely good candidate, while most of them are garbage. E.g. during the last election, the main opposition figure was one who never had any scandal on his tab before, and he was actually coming from the labor market - he actually did have an insight into reality, unlike the rest of our politicians who have never done any real work before, they were just politicians all their lives.

    Guess whom the country voted for. They voted for this far-right mafia regime, and the outcome was the greatest majority that they have ever achieved.

    And the reason for this has two components:

    1. Education. Education in that shithole country was never great - far from it. But when this mafia regime was elected in 2010, they deliberately started to dismantle it. And at the same time they have been pushing their stupid propaganda on full blast through all the channels they have plus what they acquired. And people are crazy stupid. They believe the propaganda. They lack the ability to think even just one step ahead. They fail to detect the bullshit in the propaganda, and that’s really a very low bar.
    2. Being a moron. Throughout these many years, the regime has acquired a considerable number of companies - and masses of employees with it. From there it’s simple: any one of them, who doesn’t vote for these shitheads, loses their job. And for these fools, their shitty job is worth more than the long term improvement of their and everyone else’s lives.

    Because of these two factors, the sole candidate in so many years, the one who finally showed a pure track record while having a very reasonable agenda, collected the least amount of votes.

    This had nothing to do with authenticity or cynicism.



  • I use them, because that’s my color. It’s just a touch of personalisation. I won’t paint myself yellow in my profile pictures either.

    Normally I’d ask why this is such a big deal, but I’m afraid I know. And no, I’m not fascist, not racist, and not taking any pride in skin color in any way (if anything, I’d be rather ashamed because of those white people who think they’re superior in any way). In an ideal world everyone should be able to show themselves as who they are, and I’m holding myself to that, regardless of how sick the world is.

    You should be able to use any color, whether it’s your true identity or you pick it for privacy reasons. If someone harasses you just because of skin color, that piece of shit garbage motherfucker must be banned from the internet, possibly from public spaces too.

    Damn this triggered me so bad.



  • Can someone tell, when and where is the next demonstration in Germany? Preferably in BW, but could be anywhere.

    Also, where could I find such information? If I search for demonstrations, I only find articles about past events.

    I’d also appreciate if anyone has ideas what else to do, because currently demonstrations and donations are the only things I can do, but it still feels like I’m not doing anything.

    The helplessness is so fuckin’ frustrating, it’s beyond imagination. The inaction is killing me.















  • In my opinion, the trend is pretty damn worrying. The trend has been going on for a long time.

    I understand what you mean, the actions done in the last week before an election is what drives the majority of dumb people, but inevitably you gotta plant the seed quite early on, and keep feeding the facts or misinformation (depending on which party is doing it). Sadly desinfornation campaigns have been going on on full blast, but haven’t seen any effective counter actions from Volt, for example, or other parties.

    Factual information, education should go on continuously on every possible channel to reach everyone. Yes, even 4 years before the election.
