So, in Czechia local pro-globalist, pro-Ukrainian flunkies are protesting government attempts to abolish TV licence fees, which I call TV tax. For those from countries that shit is not practiced, if you own a TV or radio receiver in Czechia, you have to send the state TV and radio a monthly fee. And these goobers that protest the attempts of the government to put the state owned media on state budget believe that if they are paying, the TV is somehow independent, as if they were majority shareholders of the TV.
The TV because of this influx of money is a parasite and its workers live lavishly and get large salaries. None of the private broadcasters have such privileges. And the state TV has long been privatized by globalist, progressive scum, and any alternative views are locked out of their broadcasts. But the goobers like it that way. This is how they think:
To not have free media, we would sprint ahead of Slovaks and Hungarians right into Putin’s arse, and we would become a laughing stock to the whole world instead of them. Whoever will not come to the demonstration on Sunday is not aware of this.
The state media are free, the Hungarians and Slovaks are a laughing stock, I wonder to whom, and hell no will I join the idiots that come protest for the preservation of the TV tax.
So, the town hall in the Czech town Písek put up American and Soviet flags to celebrate the victory day. And it got investigated by the police. 😆👌
Soviet symbols are kind a banned in Czechia but I don’t know what their legal status is when you are celebrating the victory over Nazis. You are not propagating communism, or whatever the stupid law says. Anyway, the mayor removed both flags. Písek is roughly where the American and Soviet forces met.
At the anniversary of full on Russian invasion into innocent Ukraine, Czech bugmen decided to create models of Russian Geran drones and present them at main squares of Czech cities.
In Ústí nad Labem, the model broke in two over night last weekend. I can imagine some dudes coming home from a drinking session and practicing Karate 🥋 on it.
This is a Czech affair. Martin Kuba is a hetman (governor) of our region. He recently left his home party, ODS (the civic democrats) to establish his own Naše Česko (our Czechia). He says the former no longer does right wing politics and his new outfit will have the correct values. In my opinion there is no need for another rightoid party, and there is no shortage of pro-Ukrainian buffoons. I don’t vote for explicitly pro-Ukrainian politicians. 😆👌
Members of the Pirate Party (Progressive, 100% pro-Ukrainian) of Czechia came to the Parliament dressed in flannel shirts looking like lumberjacks to demonstrate their support for the president, Petr Pavel that is resisting nominating Filip Turek of the Motorists to themselves party (pro-combustion engine, 60% pro-Ukrainian) as the Minister of Ecology. Flannel has become the symbol of the Czech president because Petr Pavel is a true alpha male but the Parliament has more power in Czechia and the Motorists are definitely getting a kick out of this situation.
An initiative to collect money for generators and storage batteries for freezing Kiev has gathered over 70 million CZK, which is about 3,5 – 4 million USD. Actually at the time of writing it is already over 6 million USD.
So guys, we in Czechia have a new government forming and part of that government is the Motorists to themselves party. This is a party created in reaction to the Green Transition, they want their gasoline cars, and they should be getting the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There is a heavy campaign against them. Here students of the Masaryk University came out in force and it generated some nice batch of cursed imagery…
Her poster says “Motorists are Chewing on Dicks”People are asking why Gen Z is having less sex?
Motorists are fascists according to these protesters. Personally, these Motorists are libshits trying to save the neoliberal circus. They love Murica and the Donald, they love Israel, they love Ukraine little too much (this is why I didn’t vote for them).
So, Putin Versteher is a pejorative meaning the one that understands Putin in German, and it was used in the German speaking milieu to label people, who were apologetic of Russia. It implies that understanding Russian interests is something the commentariat is not interested in. But I come to notice that every Russophobe understands Putin. A Russophobe knows what will make Putin happy, and what will make Putin sad.
I was reminded of this Putin understanding phenomenon when reading an interview with Libor Vondráček. Libor is a young lawyer, who leads the Party of Free Citizens, which in recent elections hooked up with Tomio Okamura, and they had their ballot in my region. Libor is a native of a town near by.
How would you comment Tomi Okamura’s lowering of the Ukrainian flag? He apparently made the rulers of the Kremlin Happy.
A Czech politician should do things that are good for the Czech citizen and stop philosophizing on what will or will not make someone happy abroad. This is not a good measure on how to do things. We need to do things that are right for the Czech Republic, so that we become good custodians of the Czech Republic long term. And in my opinion the best for the Czech Republic would be if on public buildings there hangs only the Czech flag.
But doesn’t the security of our country depend on what occurs in the head of the Russian president?
I don’t think taking down the Ukrainian flag can somehow influence our security. It is something that we decide, it is a problem in our heads. We are not the center of the World according to which others are happy or sad. We need to the right things for our citizens and justify them to our citizens.
Did you find that your critics have problem coping with your alliance with SPD, Trikolóra and PRO, because the latter are more critical of Ukraine than Russia?
Yes, the criticism regarding Russia was heard often. I have outright said that Russia is committing aggression against Ukraine and everything that is happening there is Russia’s responsibility. People however have been very emotionally committed to this, it was the main topic for them. I am interested in other topics.
Are you at least happy when you see how many people supporting and helping Ukraine in Czechia? Aren’t you proud out our country when you see Ukrainians praise the ammunition initiative, which helps Ukrainians defend themselves from Russia?
It is amazing that despite high taxes that we have here in Czechia, many people find something to put away and help other people. But it is clear that if I direct the money intended to help victims of a tornado in Czechia, there is a chance things will be built but in Ukraine, if a house gets bombed and a new one is built, it is not certain a bomb will not land on it again.
I have covered this issue here, and I said that government printed fiat is not perfect because the government is not perfect and not always honest. However, cash provides for some level of anonymity to transactions. These days you have governments and the EU mandating limits on cash holdings and access to bank accounts. Banking secrecy is another liberty that is under attack by pesky governments.
There are digital alternatives that provide for anonymous transactions. Bitcoin is not really anonymous and attempts were made to anonymize the transactions. Recently, some people were given sentences in the US for providing an open source software that anonymized Bitcoin. They were accused of helping criminals.
The notorious Tomio Okamura, announced this cash initiative, he said the Slovaks already have it. I heard Austria had similar plans, don’t know what came out of it. Our new government is kinda based, I am satisfied.
I am not entirely against migration. Modern economies need specialists and their immigration has to be made as easy as possible but governments need to make sure that this system is not abused by capitalists. Capitalists will always aim at paying low wages, and could import Indians ready to work for peanuts. Mass immigration is something else, it is a massive influx of foreigners of various qualities, which could overwhelm the system. Housing, schools, healthcare is a limited resource and we and the newcomers eat from the same pie. I am not even entirely against immigration of Ukrainians, I support the right of anyone to leave the shitshow called Ukraine. These waves will bring criminals and neonazis and the government, security services, judiciary need to be vigilant and strict.
