In the NL there is only private health insurance, so it’s technically private sector. I pay my 120 EUR premium, and this was included so I never needed to pay at the time of care.

He’s obviously on high heels.

Oh no it wasn’t, that’s not what I’m saying. I don’t think it’s Soros’ fault, he meant well, maybe wanted to do something for the homeland that scorned him.

What I’m saying is that Soros was too idealistic IMO and the focus should have been on rooting out the old guys club that the communists left us rather than giving people money to join them.

That said, hindsight is 20/20. If anything, I blame Merkel and the neolibs of her cohort that kept dumping money on Orbán - in exchange for fucking up Hungarian workers - after they came out as kleptocrats.

You can keep digging the trenches if you want. Why do you want to alienate people for the sake of it?

I just want to butt in that while the meme is stupid, most women are not awful either.

It is a damned textbook thing to do this in corrupt regimes, if anyone is wondering. If you want to commit a crime, you want as many co-conspirators as possible, because it muddies the waters and makes it much harder to prosecute.

If eg. Peter Thiel made some funny trades, he can just say he did it in response to the tweet, which is technically arguably public information. And if it’s not, what will you do, prosecute all users of Truth Social?

Imagine the screeching.

That is right, but put yourself in the shoes of that other man, and ask yourself how he would feel on seeing this meme. Contrast it with memes about “only those Black people, not the good ones”.

Yeah, sure, Orbán was a really bad hire, he was an opportunistic megalomaniac way back then. One of his classmates described him getting sad upon learning that only US-born citizens can be nominated for POTUS, as he felt bad about any limit being put on his ambition.

The grants were specifically for politicians, there was no shortage of doctors or teachers relatively speaking back then, that is a more recent development.

But back to the topic, it is very hard to build democracy in a country where previously there was no real history of it, and it is especially hard to do it from across the pond. I am not blaming Soros for Orbán, but I do wonder how his other protegés turned out.

the dual national from New Jersey was shot and killed there

Two other teenage boys, one whose family told CBS News he is also a U.S. citizen, were shot but survived.

The soldiers opened fire towards the terrorists who were endangering civilians, eliminating one terrorist and hitting two additional terrorists.

the three teenage boys were shot

it appeared his son had been shot with two different guns, and that two bullets had entered his heart, two had struck his head, two had hit his shoulders, and then five others had hit his body.

This really looks like a neat article that would be a great example for an ESL textbook on the passive voice. In case it is written to be an example of serious journalism, then it is an atrocity against the concept of humanity itself.

What actually happened, based on the IDF’s own characterisation of events is that three kids were apparently throwing stuff around in the vague direction of a road, so IDF soldiers murdered them by mowing them down with multiple automatic weapons.

Also neat to see that the IDF definition of terrorist is “kids throwing rocks” at best, “any Palestinian kids” more realistically.

And that’s not counting how much of the global USD supply is held by China as a currency reserve. Now if they went and sold all that for other currencies, hyperinflation in the US would break records.

His charities helped a lot of liberal politicians in Eastern bloc states start their careers by providing education and funding.

Including one Viktor Orbán.

Exactly my point, the meme insinuates that the only way men become lonely is that they hate women, which is not true and is a harmful generalisation.

But he still is in the fourth step, and it is presumed that the first three is how he got there.

Social division pays. Social division kills.

It’s a meme targeting lonely men by equating them with incels.

My stereotypical old guy class teacher in rural Hungary who was a local prominent party member of Orbán’s party and a devout Christian had no problems with that either.

This has never been a problem.

There was a second attempt since

The fact of the matter is that Trump has spent his whole lie dodging responsibility by just throwing enough bullshit at the system that it ground to a halt. It was unable to get through prosecuting Trump for four years until he got into power again, and then all cases got dismissed.

What is it that you expect to happen? Or what is it that you think that there is a chance that it will happen to stop this or even reverse this?

So far

They do keep “pausing” consequences every time it matters for 47 though.

Justice delayed is justice denied. It also must be super reassuring to all those people in the concentration camps CECOT.
