Yes, at this point the choice is who gets to spy on you.

“It never happened but they deserved it”. It’s a classic rhetoric of people who deny or white wash genocides.

Ads are indeed getting smarter every day

I agree, and even if it could I don’t think it should.

But there also should be some kind of mechanism to deal with members whose interests no longer align with the rest of the EU.

Not necessarily kicking them out or punishing them because they are out of line, but cutting funds seams reasonable. We get that money for specific reasons, and if they are not spent to meet those goals they should no longer be handed out.

The title is misleading as the event will be hosted by Nordic Sun Records, not “Hungary”.

According to the article the Budapest police stated that they will monitor the concert and step in if try to start anything.

That’s already happening as Western taxpayers understandably don’t want to subsidize Orbán’s corruption. But it seems to have the opposite effect of pulling Hungary back to the EU’s side.

I was seriously considering buying the game on release but after 8 hours of not having fun paying it I’m glad I had GamePass to try it on first.

They don’t really deny Slovakia’s legitimacy, at least not officially because it was part of the deal to join nato to give up on those claims.

From Orbán most of these are a performance towards his different voter blocks. Even in a single talk he gives he swings between far left and far right rhetoric depending whom he wants to pander to.

Maybe he said something that I don’t know about, but recently he even started to distance himself from the Hungarian minority parties in Slovakia in favor of Fico. It’s all about staying in power and finding the right allies for it.

Looking at historic facts and evidence selectively, misinterpreting them, ignoring anything that contradicts them. Also, just making shit up and saying it with a straight face so you don’t question them. It also helps that the time period isn’t well documented so they can just fill the gaps with fantasy.

If you don’t know much about history and don’t look into their claims at all they can be surprisingly convincing.

Also that it’s a foreign holiday that was imported to make money and taint our culture.

Some who are more into conspiracy theories also say that they want to push uniformity through American pop culture because “The Jews™” want to make a one world government and enslave everyone.

They say it’s anti-Christian because instead of practicing the Christian customs of remembering the dead and praying on this day, kids go out to party dressed as demons.

Why? Many European countries struggle with not having enough people.

Yeah, that’s what I think, too. Orbán seems to jump from far left to far right rhetoric depending on which voter block he wants to pander to, just to stay in power.

I don’t think most controversial things that he pushes matters to him as much as power and money, the only thing that I think he’s really passionate about is fixing our demographic issues.

The funny things is that despite all the nationalistic rhetoric, Orbán would rather build relations with Fico because they’re both pro-Russia than the Hungarian minority parties.

HERE’S SOMETHING THE EUROPEAN MIND can’t fully comprehend: Come November 2024, Donald Trump may be headed back into the White House

What a condescending way to start an article

She’ll never get my vote, she killed Sotha Sil

This is not funny

Yes, there are issues where both major sides are bad. You don’t always have to pick a side and 100% adopt their beliefs.

You’re listing outliers that did well despite their smaller marketing budget. There are tons of great games from smaller studios that get buried because nobody knows about them.

Basic builder units. You commit genocide against an entire civilization but leave one of these fuckers alive and 20 minutes later you’re facing en entire army.

I hated this in GTA (mainly 3 and SA). You’re doing an escort mission and suddenly 6 guys start shooting at you with AKs from nowhere because you pissed them off in an unrelated quest.

I prefer a Morrowind-like approach where enemies don’t scale and you have to take care not to venture too deep into some crazy gang’s territory early on.

But it’s much much harder to make this work properly, and scaling enemies have become an expectation by players at this point.
