It might get the EU to make a law.

This is not just a random petition, it has legal force to compel the EU to officially hear the issue.

The point is that the military will sit it out since they can’t be deployed domestically

It was the SA back then, the brownshirts. But I think the inspiration is more the Rosgvardiya in Russia

I’d say it’s more of a fact that there is no single axis political spectrum, and communists are not “further to the left” from democratic socialists, but just more towards authoritarianism.

Closer to eleven actually.

Also, 21600 World Trade Center attacks.

It has been tried many times in history since the first tanks. I wonder if modern battery tech makes it more feasible than it was 100 years ago.

There are hybrids, even in WWI there were French tanks with hybrid drivetrains, then WWII Germans also had super-heavy stuff with hybrid engines, and the AbramsX is supposed to also be like that.

The tools that would kill enough humans to matter would hurt the biosphere much worse than it hurts humans. Otters and bees don’t have gas masks and nuclear shelters.

No, because after the war we’ll need to start rebuilding stuff we just destroyed, so the people remaining will increase their emissions many times. Also, hypernormalisation after a war might just render public opinion towards climate change indifferent.

So imagine if the problem was deforestation and people heating with chopped wood. War means that we’ll burn all their wooden houses down, and then see them cut down even more trees to rebuild them.

Also, large wars cause baby booms.

Every penis is detachable, the reattachment is what tends to be harder

I mean now everyone knows that you have both a Glock and a cock to be stolen

As a Hungarian citizen, so do I!

Pls send help

And I guess they need it to be inefficient and expensive, so that it remains exclusive to them. That’s why they were throwing a tantrum at Deepseek, because they proved it doesn’t have to be.

The place was a part of my early youth, I was sad to see it go.

AFAIK it was part of a larger restoration of the whole building complex (this is the Budapest Nyugati railway station), and the global redesign of McDonalds. They justified it by saying that the architecture is closer to the original - the lower level only became part of it when they built the McDonalds in 1990, before that it was a separate diner for the poors in third class. The furniture is default McDonalds.

The overall restoration on the building at large is not bad per se, but they basically destroyed a symbol of the Hungarian 90s - 00s. This was the place where if you lived in Budapest and got wasted, you could get some nutrition in the city center, and it wasn’t full of tourists because they didn’t think that the railway station buffet was so good.

BTW the local franchisee is trying to cater more to a “fast casual” crowd rather than the bare minimum, so a McDonalds in Hungary has a menu three times as long as one in the Netherlands for example. All I’m saying is that it was a nice place considering. Sic transit gloria mundi I guess.

We used to have the only McDonald’s (that I know of) that was in a building designed by Eiffel.

They “modernised” it last year.

Ten years and counting here, fuck if anyone knows at this point. My personal (maybe a bit cynical) take is that it really doesn’t matter as the amount of coding skill you use maxes out in the first few years of your career (for 90% of us anyhow), after that cat herding skills and pragmatic system architecture is what’s important. It becomes more important to know what not to do rather than the opposite.

So it doesn’t really matter how fast you are at leetcode if you can navigate the particular brand of spaghetti your workplace is cooking, plus points if you are able and willing to grok new kinds so you can hop jobs because raises are so last century.

Yeah, unlike an outsourcing outfit an AI company won’t take the fall when given shit requirement and shit pay they deliver shit work.

Now, do you have any sources of rape statistics by Nazis in Belarus, or by Americans in west-germany?

I guess the Belarusians do. About the Americans, I (and to be honest the whole country of Hungary) has no love lost for them either. Our family lost relatives in American bombings. One could say our country deserved it for going to war, but Hungary wasn’t really a free democratic country back then, it was at best a military dictatorship. You could also say Hungary is exploited by corporations today and has a bad case of neoliberalism, but that’s coming more from the Germans than the US. Fuck Merkel BTW.

My focus is on Russians because the troops raping and robbing throughout the land were ordered and supervised by Moscow. There is literally no difference between a Russian, an Ukrainian a Hungarian or an American with regards to whether they would rape people or rob people. Those people were also kids taken from home and sent against German machineguns to die. Btw I also don’t subscribe to the “human wave” BS if you want to know. The difference on whether an army will rape everything in sight or if they act as a “decent” occupying force is decided when an officer rapes someone, will it get overlooked, or will that person end up being shot. In the Red Army, it was mixed, and depended on their superior. Plenty of Red Army soldiers got executed summarily by their superiors for rape and murder, but the Red Army in general did not care.

The result is a deeply sick society in these “liberated” countries that you can see in Hungary and Poland where people are overcompensating in politics, and we get idiots like Orbán elected. There is a measurable regression in women’s rights as well in Hungary compared to the neighbours, which started when people coped by treating rape as “not a big deal” in the 40s, since the alternative would have been that they have been powerless to protect their loved ones from the unspeakable. Many people committed suicide as I’ve mentioned. And now we have the only EU country that is not a signatory to the Istambul agreement. This has been extensively studied as well, by communists as well.

I’m not even anti-communist BTW. I just think that condoning rape and murder, a cult of personality and a lot of what was coming from Moscow was not good for communism as a whole either. The stupid thing was that communism was actually popular in Hungary after WWII after people witnessed the horrors of fascism first-hand. But that turned sour when the Soviets tried forcing an idiotic economic plan (heavy industry on a country that is basically one big grainfield with no minerals), and when the resulting economic hardships and friction resulted in a local communist-led revolt against the Soviet occupiers, which the Soviets brutally crushed, leading to brutal repression and a perpetual occupation.
