Right wingers helping right wingers. Don't see the unusual.

Still nice to give frequent reminders that Netanyahu's cabinet preferred political allies are parties of literal fascists and holocaust deniers.

Whenever Bibi is accusing his political enemies of antisemitism, it's useful to take a look at who his friends are.

Companies ought to stop thirsting for world domination, and focus regionally. If they don't want our cars- it's fair. We can also prohibit the sale of their cars here too.

As a slowpoke still in russia I'm confused by these lists. The first thing, sure, is to check if I know anyone from here, and for a long time I've never seen anyone somehow related to me. But what if I do recognize someone? And not dead, but taking a vacation leave in my city. What if I'd meet them in person, knowing what they've done? I'm afraid of that moment but it would eventually come. I can't conpute what I should do in that context and am happy I'm yet to be forced to.

Good job on them OSINT guys. Страна должна знать своих героев, блять. It's good to see them tracked and not cowardly covering themselves with their masks.

bungalowtill , in NATO getting tough on China for backing Russia's war effort

In addition, some observers say that NATO's involvement in the Indo-Pacific would not be welcomed by everyone. "This is a very volatile region. But there are no hot wars at the moment," Shada Islam, an independent EU advisor in Brussels, told DW.
"Most of the countries that I speak to, whether it's Indonesia or Malaysia or even India, don't want this foreign power to come to the region and perhaps make things worse," Islam said.
So, getting tougher on China and establishing closer bonds with partners in the Indo-Pacific will remain a difficult balancing act for NATO.
"It's a balancing act because there is a risk of escalation," Liselotte Odgaard at Hudson Institute told DW.
If NATO countries push too hard, she said, China could decide to cooperate even more with Russia, North Korea and Iran. That certainly would not be in the interest of NATO.

I am sure everything will turn out fine and dandy

How unfortunate. They must have tried really hard to squeeze it in there, but just couldn’t find a time slot.

Holy shit that is a lot of info. Lots of links to images on google drive, screen shots of vehicle details, email addresses for family members, just. Wow.

It sure is great to see all these pinnacles of democracy that work for the betterment of all mankind who are the ones supporting Russia.

All those anti-fascist leaders of progressive countries, with progressive governments, who are clearly urging Russia to cease hostilities...

Desperate. They're licking each other's boots because the resource wars are beginning and they're not in the greatest standing

This is beautiful.

May his public embarrassment continue until we're rid of him for good.

I wouldn't mind him having a heart attack or a heat stroke this summer 🤗

His voters won't know about this. Government propaganda is in a different world. He just met with Zelinsky, Putin and the Chinese dictator, and couldn't achieve anything, obviously. In government media he is praised for trying to bring peace everywhere but the evil EU and US don't let him succeed, and we have to vote him otherwise Hungary will get pulled into the war.

Oh, there is Euro football match today, so everyone will hear about this. During the half time break there are not just ads, but also a little news segment where you can hear about his latest achievement. So those who are not interested in politics but football can hear about the adventures of our glorious leader.

Yeah, for sure. I just take comfort in knowing it bruised his ego a little.

As for getting rid of him it's going to take a lot more. Poland gives hope, but the situation there was not as bad as in Hungary.

I just hope that him trying to play an increasingly bigger role globally will lead to his downfall somehow. He clearly has a distorted image of himself and his abilities, which is not a great starting point of aspiring dictators.

yes, he is out of touch, and when he meet reality it can turn into funny or strange, like this recent interview segment: https://www.reddit.com/r/hungary/comments/1dzbw53

That's amazing, thanks for sharing!

I don't generally see videos of politicians, as I get my news primarily from written sources and I don't have much of an interest in rhetorics. It's fascinating to see his words are as idiotic as his actions.

I guess he manages to come across as more convincing in Hungarian.

metaStatic , in Czechia lifts ban on blood donation by gay men

on one hand it is a higher risk

on the other hand we've had the ability to screen those risks out since forever and using it as an excuse was always about discrimination.

Meanwhile I was in the UK in the 80s so I'm off the list forever anyway

anzo Mod ,

The risk is having a high frequency of partners and anal sex (passive or active) without condoms. That can very well be the case of an heterosexual male. A lucky one, by the way.

Big fucking suprise right?

A far right politician using public funds for private stuff, embezzling, corruption, fraud. That's like a requirement at this point.

homesweethomeMrL ,

The big fucking (non-)surprise is that there’s a boatload of russian money in there.
