@Topinka222 Idk ze zemí východního bloku jsme skončili skoro nejlíp a to jsme ten socík měli i relativně v rámci východního bloku dost tvrdej, good enough for me

@epkaufm @dmcbfs True but Carney also had unified opposition in Poilievre, in the UK neither side will likely unite. Reform still has both the Tories and Restore to worry about and on a 5-6 way split it doesnt take that much to pull ahead

@kunley_drukpa @tolstoybb Which ANO wants to liberalize to promote economic growth.

Yes, Babiš frequently uses anti migrant rhethoric but at the same time he and his owned companies are still the #1 employer in the country and benefit immensely from cheap labour migration

You see a trillion dollars.

Elon Musk is hording a trillion dollars in a giant looney toons vault instead of doing something useful with all that money. He could be funding my trans communist poetry slam or my furry porn drawings. BUT NO!

one problem with political science is that you can’t rerun the same candidate to test them against a bunch of a different opponents of varying ideologies, except for Peru, where you can

People ask - which 20th century leader most directly inspires policy in the 21st century? Some will reply Lee Kuan Yew but they would be wrong, it is actually Juan Perón. There is apparently a constant, strong political desire for people to just run their own versions of Peronism

@sektadeas @sssirda Min. to lze porovnat s tím jak vypadaly průzkumy 4 roky zpátky když se volily ty stejný lokální obvody

Tehdy btw national polls byly zhruba

Labour 40%
Conservatives 35%
LibDems 10%
Greens 5%
SNP 4%
Reform se ani neměřil

A volby pak dopadly talhle. Ty trendy se propíšou i letos

The average voter won't care, but the more Carney lays out his worldview the more the contradictions and incongruences in his thinking (or lack of sincerity) become apparent.

In his famous Davos speech he said "we actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be." But the way he talks about and sees Europe does not fit this, and this statement is bizarre.

We should absolutely be pursuing closer ties to Europe, but it is delusional if he actually believes the new international order will be "rebuilt out of Europe."

Europe for all its grand aspirations cannot even defend Ukraine by itself and without American help. Europe would need something like 300,000 additional troops and €250 billion a year in extra defence spending just to deter Russia without the Americans.

NATO's own Secretary General told the European Parliament in January that Europe "cannot at the moment provide nearly enough of what Ukraine needs to defend itself today, and to deter tomorrow," and that without American weapons "we cannot keep Ukraine in the fight. Literally not." Rutte told European lawmakers that anyone who thinks Europe can defend itself without the US should "keep on dreaming." Four years into the most serious land war on the continent since 1945 and this is where we are. That is not a continent about to anchor a new international order.

The world order is quickly is reorganising, yes. But around a US-China axis, not Brussels. The eurozone is forecast to grow 0.9% this year. China at 4.5%. China accounts for roughly 30% of global growth, Europe's share of global GDP keeps shrinking. Europe is just one of many players. Again if you take Carney seriously here, it's silly. Build closer ties with Europe yes but do not believe this is the next superpower.

But i suspect this is actually just another sign that Carney is good at politics - he knows exactly what the Davos crowd, his boomer base and media admirers want to hear and he is very good at giving it to them. Flattery has done him enormous favours in European capitals. But telling European elites the future runs through them is not realism, it is the opposite of realism. It is telling people what they want to hear, not the truth.

@StefanFrancisci 3/4 boomers lmao

[Kryštof Křejpský @krystoffus]

@HikaruiTen @cremieuxrecueil Still only very partially true.

Because the britrate has been falling for decade, it means there are simply less young people than boomers. Even if all of them voted, politicians would still care about boomers more - there's just so many more of them

@samuel_la_ @warnoff54722890 @nopeschlesier @makser1939 Omlouvám se. Nejsi nacista.

Jsi etnonacionalistický socialista, kterému jde o čistotu národa a krve na svém území.

Jestli to chceš odlišit, budiž, vidím ten rozdíl, přijde mi naprosto nepodstatnej

[Kryštof Křejpský @krystoffus]

@samuel_la_ @warnoff54722890 @nopeschlesier @makser1939 Je mi u prdele kdo co komu slíbil.

Židé tam byli první a nepřetržitě, do toho tam přicházely další etnika

A protože nejsem nágl tak je nechci vyvraždit ani vyhnat ale soužít s nima.

Ty tady doslova říkáš "Čehy Čechům" a Vyhnat Židy, ale nejsi etnonacionalist. Jasný...

[Kryštof Křejpský @krystoffus]

@samuel_la_ @warnoff54722890 @nopeschlesier @makser1939 Arabští kolonizátoři tam přišli od 7. století, tak jako sem přišli němečtí kolonizátoři od 13. Domorodé obyvatelstvo tam v obou případech už bylo.

Netušil jsem, že self described socialista bude takový blood and soil etnonacionalista. Ikdyž vlastně je to běžný náglovství...

[Kryštof Křejpský @krystoffus]

@samuel_la_ @warnoff54722890 @nopeschlesier @makser1939 Doufám, že stejnou logiku aplikuješ i na založení státu Izrael. Že se odtamtud měli Arabové vyhnat komplet, žejo?

@samuel_la_ @warnoff54722890 @nopeschlesier @makser1939 Moc se omlouvám, že nesimpuju borce, kterej rozbil něco nedokonale funkčního, protože on přece věděl jak to má být správně a jeho správně trvalo 20 let a pak si pro něj přišel Hitler. První republika byla retardovanej nápad od začátku
