and as much as id want to call some of them outright fascist supporters etc, their parties are still centre-right wing ones, and not down bad into the pit of rightwingerism

if anything, most of those 'examples' i could think of was socdem parties kinda falling apart over the past few years to lib and green ones after failures to deliver; but its still mostly ending up with a 55-45 electoral split, proportional representation making it a bit more skewed at times

like, the moment i saw 'split, croatia' in the story it all just made perfect sense with him being an actual to god uneducated idiot (with no self-reflection afterwards), rather than something else/worse

not even that, but specifically, out of all places to get blackout drunk and get tattooed with that, split is like, /THE/ one place you could find something like that with the greatest chance, and the tattoo guy not having the slightest issue on tagging you with one

ive discussed this with a few friends off site in more detail before, but a new insight/connection via third eye was granted to me just now

his death and squirtening had the same effect on them, just as the video of gaddafis death with funhole probing had on putin

after a lot of chewing i was convinced that this was also why Charlie Kirk's shooting shocked them.

a normal person did it. and charlie kirk wasn't someone they considered a normal target, even though he was extremely influential and important to them

germany entered this war, etc

The notion that regular people could be political agents outside of elections isn’t threatening to them, it’s incomprehensible.

this tweet was brought by thinking about how taiwan (mis)manages chiang shai keks legacy (and way too many statues)

collective societal agreement to have all that organized by having a large museum (and storage) dedicated to the victims of the former regime and an adjacent liberty and liberation park

they just swap/rotate them depending on the regime in control

(but, to make it obvious / should anyone actually force the question)

its pretty much got to do with the fact of them being expulsed and stripped of their nationalities by those countries would feed into them culturally distancing in return; which stuff like this achieves

also, it should be blatantly obvious (to anyone thinking a few seconds about it) as to why many of the mediterranean / levantine foods that have been cultural/historic staples of mizrahim cuisine have gotten renamed to be 'israeli', away from '[country of origin]'

the whole issue is your load bearing assumption how that path is intentionally chosen by everyone involved

just to jump in really quickly - the whole part about the partner being trans is literally not backed anywhere by anything other than his own mom stating that - she is the only source of that assertion, and its not really brought up anywhere else

fun tidbit:
jarzynowa is quite similar to what over here in the balkans we call 'french salad'
its good, as per above

the evil variant, with meat/ham cubes in it, is 'russian salad', and its vile spawn from hell

issue:
some people interchange/mix those up
im extremely careful when people offer it

its the seasonalness that makes it work - its either to be eaten with dry non-fatty/oily foods, or with incredibly fatty/oily foods, and when a lot of alcohol is involved, not just randomly whenever

its insanity to prepare it on its own

id throw in, that whole shitshow heavily relied on a semantic/rhetorical sleigh of hand, where the disabled~but-functional-in-daily-life online posters arguing all of that, wanted to present the their situation being fully interchangeable to those requiring 24/7 support care disabled

id avoid the starting thread post, because its ~loose~ enough to be interpretable in any direction, but down the line it becomes quite obvious on whats the thing theyre talking about
