[OFF TOPIC] Politics Thread

@Whoever moderates this Forum: If you don't want to prevent worstmen from constantly spamming this thread with his propaganda (making this thread unreadable and preventing people from discussing any other topic), could you maybe at least prevent him from spamming 2 threads (this thread and the "General Chat" thread) at the same time with the same propaganda?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Not trying to take one side or another by posting this…

 

I just think it’s well argued and provides “food for thought” on the matter.

I've never seen an army that enjoys killint cibilians and go live proudly like the so called IDF , i never saw police or army or whatever film humiliating people proudly and hitting them in all their bodies whether innocents or not and I'm sure that vast majority that is being filmed humilated blindfolded and bound are innocent , otherwise they would have resisted them and injured or kill some of them , I mean everyone is fighting for something and every soldier sees him or herself as a hero. But I never found soldiers enjoying killing civilians , even they are proud of killing babies and I saw it in many streams like this , what kind of things do they teach them in this country , how these people are monsters like this , despite of th3 fact of living in a modern country with all things provided with all super powers defending it and sending weapons to it , from where did all this kind of hatred ، jealousy and evilness came from and don't tell me it started from Oct.7 , no they are humiliating Palestenians since 1948 , they tried to humilate our soldiers in 67 war , there are many brutal stories of how they dealt with war prisoners

    • Looks like i severely overestimated the intelligence of the average Bulgarian.. Tragic result, but will see what happens now. Initial stance last night was that there won't be any EU blockage, but we will be "standing our ground on Bulgaria's interests", whatever that means. The campaign and the whole election cycle was more towards our domestic problems, corruption and status quo. There wasn't much foreign rhetoric, even though everyone knows Radev's position.   It's basically wait and see at this point. Like i mentioned before, this guy isn't as bombastic as Orban, but more tactical and cunning, so i don't expect fireworks in front of whole Europe.  
    • First careers Play-off hattrick for Juraj Slafkovský last night in the opening Stanley Cup Play-Offs 1st round. That was like million years since it happened last time from a Slovak player       
    • Do they have to make every sport a mass sport? There are mass sports and elite sports, and let's keep it that way. Not every sport has to be global, so let them back off and to leave fencing with safe...
    • it will end up like Michael Johnson's Track & Field experiment (I hope) 😈
    • Oh no... They want to destroy another sport The USA and the IOC together     
    • Tuesday April 21st, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +2)   12:30   Switzerland vs Hungary 16:00   Ukraine vs Kazakhstan 19:30   Poland vs Slovenia
    • To give some insight into how ridiculous Angharad's time was, the mixed relay that includes her, the infamous female breaststroker, is one second quicker than the four that includes Adam ****ing Peaty.   It's VERY rare your quickest mixed 4 includes your female breaststroker - the slowest stroke also creates, generally the biggest 'sex' gap. But if your male stroker is relatively very weak (think USA Tokyo 2020) it can be explained.   When your male stroker is Adam Peaty, backed up by Filip Nowacki, its insane.
    • Doesn't seem to be major changes.   Section 3.B has been updated in relation to the host nation quota to introduce 'eligible' into the criteria. In the new version, 'if the host country has not already qualified an athlete, the highest-placed host country eligible athlete based on the final results of the Olympic Games 2028 Qualification Event will directly obtain a quota place. If the host country has already had one or two athletes qualify via alternate pathways, the host country quota position will not be granted and will be reallocated.'   There is also a change to section F1 and F2 to introduce gender criteria - 'If an allocated quota place is not confirmed by the NOC by the confirmation of quota places deadline, or is declined by the NOC, the quota place will be reallocated to the next highest placed eligible athlete not yet qualified of the same gender from the same qualification event where the quota place was allocated , adhering to the maximum number of quota places per NOC, as outlined above (B.2).'  
    • Massidda is another disappointment and Imperio- it's great that she has gold, but she's not making any progress in her results and with this result, she won't even qualify for the Olympics in 2028 (in 2024 also her failed to qualify). Considering the return of our old friends from Eastern Europe, Italy can basically give up on the sport- our chances of an Olympic medal are practically zero, at now.
    • https://stillmed.olympics.com/media/Documents/Olympic-Games/LA28/OWS-LA28-Qualification-System.pdf   New Open Water doc...but I don't have time right now to see what is different.
