Time for Canada to join the EU?
Fuck.
Tangential story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_children_of_Francoism I wonder if they would’ve objected to this too.
This is a nice updates news list: https://www.g4media.ro/breaking-biroul-electoral-central-a-respins-candidatura-lui-calin-georgescu.html if you can use a translation tool.
I don’t trust the polls much here, the polling agencies are famously partizan and unreliable over time.
He has until the 15th to re-submit the papers for candidacy.
What’s going to happen with the cereals exports? That caused some drama in 2022-2023, and crime: here’s a recent investigation from Romania (use auto-translate) https://www.riseproject.ro/investigations/uncategorized/cerealele-negre-din-ucraina-frauda-si-marii-beneficiari-din-romania/
The court ruling also highlights the role of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, which repeatedly tried to block the expansion of the complaint. The Cybercrime Prosecutor had opposed the extension of the complaint, despite the PEGA Committee and PACE (Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe) had emphasised the need for an in-depth investigation into these cases of espionage using Pegasus.
The court states that the attitude of both the investigating judge and the prosecutor in refusing to allow the extension of the complaint was “inconsistent with the current state of the proceedings” and that “it seems entirely logical to extend the indictment to the individuals who have been identified as being behind the decisions taken by these [companies].” This attitude on the part of the Public Prosecutor’s Office adds to the silence and lack of cooperation on the part of the Spanish state in this case.
Yeah, wtf?
Mafia translates to incompetence as nepotism, “higher orders”, and quid pro quo take precedence over competence.
The strategy focuses on advanced technologies, including Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), microreactors, and fourth-generation fission technology. The plan also includes investments in nuclear fusion, reflecting a long-term commitment to sustainable energy development.
Of course, the most hyped up tech producing the most expensive electricity in the current set of electricity generation. \
We are looking at fusion
You can tell that they’re grifters with that simple statement. Nuclear fusion for electricity supply isn’t coming in the short term, we just have this cycle of hype that “in a few years it will here! We promise this time!”
Small reactors don’t add up as a viable energy source
Energy researchers say SMR promises don’t match reality • The Register
The “nuclear will save us” discourse reminds me of Ilan Shor, the dude who stole a hefty chunk of Moldova’s money. From his website:
https://web.archive.org/web/20221227002442/https://partidulsor.md/ the 4th item in the vertical list:
23122022 Ilan Șor: Vom construi centrale nucleare cu reactoare modulare mici, care vor permite asigurarea independenței energetice a Republicii Moldova
same “we’ll use SMRs for energy independence”
It can be tied, at least, to discourse about policies, to “campaign promises”.
They are the future.
I put some context links in the body of the post, to read.
Georgescu has a platform of autarky, which he calls “sovereigntism”. He’s also surrounded by fascists (“legion of archangel Michael”), is directly connected to a paramilitary mercenary group, uses dogwhistles regularly. He also believes he’s a new messiah who is chosen by God to “save” the People (he may actually be schizophrenic, but the people around him are encouraging it). He’s also constantly spewing conspiracy stories and wellness pseudoscience on social media, parroting them and mixing them up with famous speeches from movies.
Georgescu is like if Trump and RFK Jr. had a son with Alex Jones as the nanny.
I added another version from a different angle: https://i.imgur.com/Jezrgss.gif
There should be no* debate, but there will be, of course.
You don’t get to reduce inequality with fascists in power.
