The funny thing is, we’re still quite rusophobic. You’ll find few people that approve of russia or putin. Russian talking points and propaganda however, that we gobble by the bucket.

Not sure if gog has anything to do with privacy. Altho if it was on the list I imagine it’d be up there with steam ( not sure why that one’s on the list either )

Heard of plenty of people that decided to vote Simion out of sheer spite after that stunt.
absquatulate@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Far-right Trump fan wins first round of Romania’s rerun presidential election, partial count suggestsEnglish8·23 days agoAbout as fair as you can hope for in this country, I suppose. I imagine the large parties pulled all the stops and still couldn’t grab more than 20%. And I know they didn’t covertly support Simion (yet) because last night they were pissed.

absquatulate@lemmy.worldtoEurope@lemmy.ml•Paris Mayor: I want a city with less cars. Perhaps it's controversial, but I think I'm on the right side of history. I had lobbyists from car companies threaten me in my own office.02·1 month agoNext year is a mayoral election year, so all this feels like political posturing to me. I don’t doubt that the “diesel lobby” wasn’t pleased with her changes, but the way she tells it smells like victimization. Also having a car-less approach to running a city is not exactly controversial in the year of our lord 2025. There are a lot of cities that pioneered car-less city design before she got into office ( altough in her defense, this kind of change may be harder to implement in extra large metropolitan areas like Paris ). Oh, and another thing: she’s been in office 11 years and traffic-wise the city hasn’t changed much outside the central touristy areas. You’d think she could’ve done a lot more in that kind of time. I go through the city every now and then and I feel the only thing that changed is the growing number of trikes and motorcycles on the periferiques. Maybe someone from Paris can chime in on her actual accomplishments?

Edit: amusing how these days “all major nations” does not include US anymore
Incompetent incumbent administration + russian propaganda + a lot of angry angry people after the cancelling of the first set of elections.
