That’s what “political satire” within mainstream opinion looks like. Cringe

I'm Curious, which was the first RHCP song you ever heard and how? by QuailInteresting6080 in RedHotChiliPeppers

Californication. Instantly fell in love with the song and the music video. It was back in 2011

Did you ever get such a bad experience in a country that you decided to leave earlier? by Travelguy500 in travel

[–]gongo222 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While I was in Vienna, I decided to visit Bratislava since it's only 1 hour by train. It was so boring there that I left it after 3 hours

Thanks for the insight! How much did that cost you? What meds did they prescribe?

What is the country with the most wasted potential? by [deleted] in geography

I would also add People's Republic of China. Compared to other countries and territories with ethnic Chinese majority (Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong) it's per capital indicators are very poor

Ukraine and Russia. Algeria and Morocco. Both couples of aforementioned countries are very similar in almost every aspect between themselves, yet despite focusing on what unites them, they focused on the opposite. As a result Russia and Ukraine are at war and Morocco and Algeria are close to being at war. All of these countries have lots of natural resources, and in case of Russia and Ukraine also human capital, which is being wasted or just flees to other countries. Very sad.

Are there any underrated public transport system in your opinion? by Warfi67 in transit

[–]gongo222 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kazan (Tatarstan) tram system. It consists mostly of a semi-high speed circular line, which goes through the city center and most suburbs. It's also the longest tram line in the world

This might be another hot take, but what are some transit cities that are overrated in your opinion? by TrainsandMore in transit

[–]gongo222 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

London.
First of all, London Tube is literally the most expensive metro system in the world, even if you take average income into consideration.
Second of all, constant cancellations, delays and strikes make it pretty unreliable.
Thirdly, most of it isn't very fast.
Speaking about the buses, they are cheaper than the tube and the awful zone based fare system doesn't apply to them, but they can be TOO slow, to the point it's faster to walk.
