  • It’s more of a friendly suggestion to try something else. At the current going rate liberals will have to join leftists in being entirely irrelevant. Being the latter I’m used to it so I treat current events as a bit of a shakeup at the top. It doesn’t change anything about how rich keep getting richer at the expense of everyone else at an increasing rate since the 70s. If this doesn’t change then nothing else will. Might not be too late everywhere but good luck convincing anyone after both right and liberals demonised left for decades now.


  • This thing has been tried all over the world already and has been proven to be ineffective. It’s a broad topic I don’t want to get to but to put it simply: it doesn’t work because in most countries we’ve already had supposedly „correct” politicians and they didn’t do that much to make lives of all people better. It usually boils down to big cities vs province and province has had enough of being marginalised because they can no longer afford to pay their bills. There is no amount of calls to save democracy that will convince anyone to change sides at this point so it only serves to further polarise political discourse.


  • It’s dangerous to focus on words rather than actions. It’s been how most of the political elites (regardless of affiliation) have been behaving for so long that it’s hard not to pick up the pattern. Fico probably wants to score some points from EU-sceptics and PS screams bloody murder because that’s how they score points. Things are bleak and boring at the same time.
