So in other ex-yu nation news, the current leading party of goverment in Slovenia SDS has finally gotten their favourite in the leading role of the national special investigation police unit. Welp, guess even more crimes from the heads of SDS will be hidden from now on.

Poland gets around that problem by limited testing. Saw first "you're not sick don't wear the mask. Noone can force you, and you'll get fungal infection of lungs". Thanks US for exporting your loving loons...

Is there a recent aggregated comparison of number of tests vs number of positives in Europe? I don't doubt that Poland tests hmmm... "strategically" but a nice dataset would help. edit: map here https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus-testing suggests Czechia jukes the stats even worse than Poland Anne Frank Funk fucked around with this message at 10:31 on Oct 15, 2020 |

I was super impressed how they handled it in spring but then instead of carefully easing some of the measure they went "ok it's eliminated now" and here we are lol. I see seen this coming and hosed off to Spain where they have a similar number of cases on a population 4 times as large. alex314 posted:Poland gets around that problem by limited testing.

Here I called my doctor and said that I've had headaches, sore throat and runny nose, he said that if I could still taste stuff that's not it and I don't need to get tested. Before that I was at the dentist and he and the nurse spent the whole time talking about how wearing a mask is super terrible for children (while wearing surgical masks) and the vaccines are going to kill more people than save. One of my high school mates constantly posts on facebook how they should reopen bars and schools and shut down the government instead.

Really, I wouldn't say anti-semitism is more widespread in Ukraine compared to most Eastern European countries, but the government does very little to curtail far-right organisations and allows them to be very visible. Too visible at times.

Well, in case of Odessa, a city with a sizeable and culturally prominent Jewish minority, it could have been self-deprecating humour. But could have easily been something else.

I remember when Russia started invading Ukraine, over at the Paradox forums a serb said Ukraine government was taken over by nazis, and when someone pointed out that some members of the new government was jewish, he said those were the bad type of jews without any irony.

Greece is interesting. I understand it from the anti-Turkish and recent refugee point, but the level of opposition to Jews is puzzling.

Back before the 2015 election I met a random older man who explained to me why he votes for PiS. Kaczynski is secretly a Jew, you see, but that's a good thing - he still cares about Poland and wants to make it strong, and as the Jews run the world, he will be able to enlist their help. The path is clear: Poland must ally with the Great Jewish Conspiracy, and together we will be unstoppable. You can't even begin to argue with that, you just stand there in awe at the fascinating rare species of brain worms.

Fun fact: Kolomoskyi, a jewish oligarch sponsors the Azanov Battalion which is controlled opposition whenever they need a dogwhistle for "Ukranian Nazi's". If you look at some of the faces from the Nikopol Ferroalloy Plant protests you will see the same paid protestors at the Azov rallies. Since the thread is slowing down a bit, here is some spicy updates from the worlds STD capital: 1. Kolomoskyi seems to have a hard on for taking down Bakhmanchuk. I guess there is a feud going back to some land scheme which Oleg and Yanukovich pulled, which Benya now wants to steal from Oleg. Bohdan when he is not being a mafia lawyer apparently is the 8th largest land holder in Ukraine and really enjoys farming sunflowers. What a guy. Expect to see Oleg or Petya brought before the DBR in 1Q20 in a "mirror" of the Yulia Tymoshenko trial & arrest. Expectation is to show the "West", or whoever Ihor thinks is his enemy that week, he is in "charge" and in control of the country via a show trial for western media. 2. Kolomoskyi is no longer able to smuggle gasoline through Belarus with Yermak, and Yermak is now under threat of being fired by "for the Future". If he is fired, I wonder how Rosneft intends to send creditors to Ukraine for the last 6 months of gasoline they smuggled into Kremachug. Also, with Bohdan and Yermak both gone, unless Arakamia wants to become a pariah next, the OPU has now run out of people with pockets deep enough to bribe the SOP's from remaining as one "mono majority". Expect the party to collapse into at least 3 parties in 2021. 3. Burisma's lawyer is under arrest for trying to bribe the GPU and is now cooperating with the FBI/DOJ. Expect Burisma and Poroshenko to cooperate with either Biden or Trump, because they have cooperated with both and its working well for them. 4. Kolomoskyi seem intent on sucking Putin Dick. Pinchuk now has sold all his assets to Medvechuk through Alfa Bank calling his loans. Viktor and Kuchma are now down to interpipe and two small industrial concerns in Dinipro. Pipeline sales is a tough racket. RIP Yalta binge drinking. 5. Zelensky apparently didnt get the message with a snub from HMR QE II, so he leaked the MI6 meeting notes to RT. Perhaps the biggest FU since he snubbed France (Macron) at the TCG meeting last summer. Zelensky must be very confident on his Yermak life line to his Rostov-on-the-Don bolt hole, because at this stage I can't see him serving his full term. What is most realistic is the splinter "SOP" will move to turn Ukraine into a "parliamentary republic" like Israel, where they will dump the President and then impeach Zelensky. This will give the Rada absolute power which will permanently force the last 7 oligarchs to form power blocks to manage what remains of the country's state property scams and government contracts. Since all 5 of the 7 with >=100mm USD all are currently swinging for team Moscow, expect another cycle of Kuchma or Yanukovich level corruption. I expect the anti-journalism law will pass before June 2020 which will neutralize all the major EU / US backed journalism in country. Expect journalist killings to double before October 2021 when the turf wars heat up, particularly when the Iranian money starts to flow into the new Kyiv and Odessa casinos this summer. 6. Ze/Servant is behind bad in the polls. Oppo block and the "Truth & Deeds" parties are likely going to sweep the south, making any sort of Ukraine reform program difficult due to decentralized corruption schemes 7. NABU will be liquidated in February, throwing the entire Visa Free regime into doubt 8. Privat is now raiding the insurance industry. Because hey, if he can't steal a bank, why not steal something from Prem Watsa or Warren Buffett, right ? 9. Ukraine has done the impossible and successfully now become too politically toxic to both NATO, Russia, the EU and China. 10. In line with (7) the armed forces reforms are being unwound, with the entire special forces ("Alfa Group"), not to be confused with Fridman/Khan's bank, being "reformed". All the units which were fighting or had fighting experience vs. Russia are now being disbanded in the largest setback to the armed forces since Tymoshenko sold all their working artillery systems to Somalia in 1994. I'm not sure what 27,000 unemployed paramilitary and special operators intend to do with their careers but it's going to really drive down the wages for PMC's in Africa and Mexico. If Joe Biden wins, Ukraine is hosed. As soon as Susan Rice is confirmed SOS, the pimp slapping which is going to hit Zelensky/Kolomoskyi is going to be surreal. If Trump wins, Ukraine is hosed. He is going to come after Zelensky/Kolmoskyi with everything he has to get Kolmoskyi to cough up the beans on Mikola and Hunter/Jang.
