Random Rants XIX: Failure Tactics

[choxorn]

But allying with the communists is going to get you nowhere.

On the contrary. When faced with far-right wingers of too much power, we leftists unite into the mighty SUPER LEFT! We fight for Truth, Justice, Freedom, Equality, and to Piss Off Right Wingers!

I'd very much like to know how many of you guys actually live in a communist country and have real experience of how it'd be...

@Cata: Relevant quote, out of the exit-poll provided by Insomar for "Realitatea TV":

"Băsescu a obţinut cele mai multe voturi în Transilvania, în mediul urban, în rândul electoratului cu studii medii şi cu vârste cuprinse între 18 şi 49 de ani. Mircea Geoană a avut cele mai multe voturi în mediul rural, în Moldova şi Muntenia, de la electoratul cu cel mult zece clase şi vârsta de cel puţin 50 de ani."

Spoiler translation :

Băsescu obtained most votes in Transylvania, in the urban areas, among the electorate with medium studies aged between 18 and 49. Mircea Geoană had most of the votes in the rural areas, in Moldova and Muntenia shake, from the electorate with at most 10 completed school grades, and at least 50 years of age.

I'm curious to see the breakdown of the votes of the Romanians living abroad, especially now that I'm one of them!

What he's calling "Communist" is actually the Social Democratic Party.

No, what i'm calling communist is actually your mom.

We now have a puppet president which will do NOTHING except what his communist masters tell him to do. Communists ruined my country; i cannot expect you or any other "communists" living in the west to understand that.

The poll I read showed only 0.6% difference, I guess the 23:00 results are out? In that case, it only went downhill from what I saw.

I didn't see those. Too drunk to look for them now.

In other words, the smart people voted for Basescu?

Yes, the brainwashed old people who want Ceausescu back and the retards voted for the communist. These are the regular communists, as this forum proves. The rest voted for Basescu.

Thank you for the quote mirc.

 

[Heretic_Cata]

Oh did i mention the new prime minister will be a f...ing hungarian who doesn't give a flying sh... about Romania ?

EDIT: yes yes i know he's german but germans from Romania =/= germans from Germany. Those here only care about hungarians.

So IF this goes trough, what's going to happen to Romania (the cause of your rant)? Internally and internationally?

If this goes through, we will see internally a stop to all movements against the acquiring of more power of the people with connections to the old regime, which might lead to monstrosities like the one that was about to happen with an ex-PM (Adrian Nastase) who was about to own the better part of the [wiki]Danube Delta[/wiki] (losing it in the last minute), and an increase in the power of the people of local influence that will probably lead to an easier time in establishing of a monopoly on various media outlets and properties. Also, the numerous buildings purposely left in ruins in order to lose value and be sold by the state for insignificant sums of money will continue, likely resulting in a continuation of the corrupt sales of properties and other assets, that slowed down during the last 5 years. The whole old center of Bucharest is in this situation, for example - intentionally left in ruins, in order to make it cheaper to buy. This will fuel the inequality between the very rich and the very poor (ironically, coming from a "socialist" party). And this will also lead to unequal development and easier corruption, which is exactly what has been keeping Romania down during the last 20 years, and why it is behind most of the other ex-Communist countries in Europe.

Internationally, we will probably see a harder time for Moldovans (from the Republic, not the region) in obtaining citizenship and visas for Romania, which will slow down the role of Romania as a gateway to the west, and cause more and more of them to flee either westwards towards the rest of Europe and remain there, or to go home and remain there. And probably more of a pro-US and less pro-EU foreign policy. This might anger Romania's neighbors and cause relations to become colder.

The prime minister might try to appease the separatists in eastern Transylvania, in which case the whole thing will turn into a bloody mess. If this were to happen, I don't even want to think of the circus that we will be seeing. Romanian politics will explode if this were to be the case. Of course, we cannot be sure that it will happen, but there's certainly a higher chance of it happening than in the other case, in which the chances would be virtually nil.


All in all, I don't see any good coming out of this.

The thread title sucks.

It's supposed to suck.

 

[choxorn]

You get used to it, all the thread titles suck.

 

[PlutonianEmpire]

I'm sure this would happen less often if the OP wasn't so greedy and hogging all the new threads to himself.
