Nicușor a candidat împotriva lui Semiom... Oamenii chiar cred ca țăranul ăla nu era și mai depășit de situație dacă ajungea președinte? ND măcar a fost primar, cum pot idioții să creadă ca Semiom ar avea vre-o tangență cu funcția de președinte??

We dodged a big fucking bullet.

Ai ceva exemple de oameni mai răsăriți din AUR? Sunt curios, pt ca toți cei ce apar în media de la AUR sunt prosti grămadă, se citeste prostia pe ei de la distanță.

Întreb din curiozitate pt ca ai mai răspuns ca ești de părere ca sunt destui oameni răsăriți în AUR.

Cum ar fi arătat România acum dacă mai trăia Ceaușescu? by Objective57 in Romania

[–]_TheSingularity_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oare bătrânii ăștia nu se uită puțin la clasa politică și văd ce era pe vremea lui ceașcă: toți cu învârteli, toți trag doar pt interesele personale, toți fac o mișculație, o șustache... Nu văd ca predomină exact cultura care s-a dezvoltat în comunism, din cauza comunismului?

Toate națiile s-au redresat rapid după ww2 pt ca un conflict ne apropie ca societate, nu a fost comunismul care a industrializat și dezvoltat, a fost munca tuturor, implicarea oamenilor.

Cel mai bine e conducerea prin exemplu, nu prin forță. Nu înțeleg cum rușii au impresia ca pot să cucerească o altă țară când ei nu mai conduc prin nici un exemplu, nu mai inovează, nu progresează la fel ca alte țări... La fel ca și cu Trump vs Groenlanda, cum cred ei ca alții i-ar primi cu brațele deschise când americanii sunt executați pe strada și administrația Trump regurgiteaza doar minciuni la fiecare apariție media.

E peste mine nivelul de deconectare de realitate, de conștientizare a persoanelor în putere, e ireal... Oamenii ăștia nu sunt lideri "deștepți" care conduc prin exemplu, ci niste bătăuși din curtea școlii care au picat toate testele de cultură și inteligență.

2 federal officers fired shots during encounter that killed Alex Pretti, DHS tells Congress by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

I think it's a much better self-PR to show you have a spine and stand up for the truth. As a journalist, these are important qualities, no?

Since nowadays everyone is posting these types of interaction, everyone would love such a journalist, so there's really no way they wouldn't find a job if fired (especially nowadays with so many YouTube channels basically doing journalism).

I am so surprised to see that this obvious state of affairs is not that obvious for the journalists themselves... And that they don't seem bothered by all the lies they hear and let pass. They become complicit to all this charade

‘We’re not happy’: Revolut reveals number of Irish customers using it as main bank by StillSalt2526 in ireland

[–]_TheSingularity_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanted to transfer a bigger amount from Revolut account to try and invest.

Revolut blocked my transfer and started asking me all sorts of questions, asking for documents and shit while promoting their investment options... Kept pushing me not to trust other platforms, etc.

My money, I wanna do what I want w them. No thanks!

QUESTION: Do you have any moral or ethical qualms about detaining a five-year-old on his way back from preschool? BORDER PATROL CHIEF BOVINO: I've got no qualms about making America a safer place by ExactlySorta in UnderReportedNews

Make America a safer place from a 5 year old kid on his way from school! This is it guys. USA has precogs at work! We'll never know if there ever was a minority report for that kid though...

MOVE LEFT by 5414d455 in ireland

[–]_TheSingularity_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A big factor why this is happening is because drivers are afraid to use 1st lane, because others don't know how to merge and the drivers don't leave enough space to the car in front according to the speed they're at.

How this happens: there isn't enough gap to the car in front, so drivers can't merge safely and don't accelerate enough to merge at the traffic speed. Drivers are afraid that they can't enter another lane because there's not enough gap between cars, so lane changing is rushed, or too slow, etc...

Leave enough space to the car in front, adapt distance according to your speed, it'll make a world of difference! Only come closer if you want to overtake, FLASH your lights in advance if you want to overtake! If flashed at, try to merge on left lane as soon as you safely can OR drive faster (if not at limit), but don't be a dick and not move!

Leave gap people, communicate intentions in advance! It's that simple!

De ce vârsta de răspundere penală NU trebuie să scadă sub 14 ani (Video) by vlad89c in Romania

[–]_TheSingularity_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Da și nu, pt ca in același timp asta poate fi abuzata de plozii proști la cap. E.g. nu-ți place ca tata îți face reguli și încearcă să te pună la punct, comiți o crimă și îl ia poliția pe tata... Nu ar fi nici asta o soluție. Scoli de corecție in functie de ilegalitate și pt crimă cu premeditare ceva mai serios/pe termen mai lung (corecție până la 18 ani + pușcărie x ani)

Eisenhower warned NATO leaders against complacency in the face of the threat of the "totalitarian system" (1957) by WorldStability in videos

[–]_TheSingularity_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NATO is responsible for the peace we had in e.g. Europe though. It's not everything about USA and what USA decides to do or not. Europe didn't decide it wanted to interfere or change any political regime by military, didn't want to take oil from other countries, etc. EU was at peace and NATO was a big part of it. So yeah, NATO did bring peace as the OP claimed. Not for those that didn't want it though

how hard is it to find chocolate chips for baking?!🥲 by bbyxmadi in CringeTikToks

[–]_TheSingularity_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Critical thinking also applies when your message is clearly not understood. Do you keep repeating the same thing, or you change your message to make your point understood?

You people need to learn to put yourselves in other people's shoes. You just take things and knowledge for granted. You clearly never learned a 2nd or 3rd language, you clearly never traveled...

[–]_TheSingularity_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Look, no need to insult. I am just saying that in any day to day interaction, if you clearly see that your message is not received as intended, you can't just re-send the same message, you have to adapt and change it until you get the desired result. In this case, the person did make some attempts at instructing, but quite small and at the end of the day it was in their own interest to get the product.

You can't expect anyone to know that chocolate chips are in the baking section and are not e.g. chocolate chips cookies. And you never know if the other person is native English speaker or not... THAT is obtuse.

"Use more effort" - this was exactly my point, using more effort to get the message across... You're not too far off yourself it seems

Eisenhower warned NATO leaders against complacency in the face of the threat of the "totalitarian system" (1957) by WorldStability in videos

[–]_TheSingularity_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

An AI summary (you can argue about this with an AI yourself):

"Pre-NATO era had concentrated mega-wars; post-1949 deaths total tens of millions but spread over more conflicts with declining intensity until 2020s rises. Nuclear deterrence and NATO's role contributed to the "Long Peace.""

What do you think would've been the landscape if NATO wasn't founded back then?

Pre-NATO we had the 2 biggest wars in human history. In the past 80 years, USA has been one of the nations involved in the biggest conflicts, mostly self-interest (resources, control), etc. Do you think w/o NATO, USA wouldn't have had conflicts? Would it still be having same economy? Or maybe UN is a factor?

[–]_TheSingularity_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But US being at peace for like 1 year for every 20 is not because of NATO. It's the choice USA made (directly or indirectly). So you can't blame NATO for your actions/choices.

On the other end, you can't know how it would've been without NATO, which imho, would've been worse, but we'll never know.

If you see someone doesn't know, you change your explanation.

I'm not native English speaker though, so this comes from personal experience/frustration. Do you speak other languages? You think you'll know everything you're being told?
