hi non-european here. can you explain the election to me like im stupid 🙏 i tried googling ‘election hungary’ and uhhh i still don’t know what’s going on

answering this to avoid maniacally refreshing the election page. basically Hungary's government fidesz is insanely far right fascists + a delightful emerging nazi party and the opposition usually bands together to put 1 single candidate forward coz otherwise they stand 0 chance of winning

budapest is comprised of districts, each of which has its own mayor, plus the lordmayor who's basically the head of everything. budapest is also the only leftist place in the entire country and fidesz realised that THEY'RE the ones who have no chance of winning here unless the voters arent divided and there were 4 candidates: Karigeri the leftist we all love who's also the current lordmayor, a fidesz woman, a guy who's just a fidesz sockpuppet, and a nazi. and fidesz made the woman step down coz they knew that way the sockpuppet could stand a chance of winning

so we're voting for:

- village/town/city mayors in the entire country depending on where you live unless you live in budapest ↓

- if you're budapesti: mayor in your own district + lordmayor

- also some other bullshit but who cares

when they first started counting the votes the sockpuppet guy had 50%, karigeri had 42%

but karigeri's % has been steadily climbing up and it is LITERALLY. DOWN TO A FEW DOZEN PEOPLE. LIKE THE DIFFERENCES IN %S ARE LITERALLY LIKE 0.0001% SHIT IT'S INSANE. AT ONE POINT THE DIFFERENCE WAS 19 PEOPLE. they're almost done counting so. here we fucking go.

#im hitting post and then im checking the results and I fully expect them to be in now #i got mail! #OH MY GOD THEY'RE STILL NOT IN. PLEASE.

it’s really fucking annoying when goyim come in halfway to a conversation between jews and start bitching about what we should be talking about instead. like, you’re seriously going to come on to a thread of jews talking about the antisemitism in the way people use Israel’s right of return policy to delegitimize Israelis’ indigeneity and all the other countries that do it but don’t get criticized despite their own histories of colonization, just to go “ummm acktually you should be talking about how the right of return is used to colonize palestine”. get out. get the fuck out. this is why jews don’t feel comfortable having conversations about these kinds of gray topics with goyim, because all you’ll do is intentionally misread the room and shout your moot point from the rooftops like you’re a hero and then whine and cry when it’s not taken well, not to mention you won’t even look into the people already participating and find out what they think BEFORE you assume everyone talking is just an evil zionist colonizer nazi. stay the fuck out of jewish conversations and unpack your fucking antisemitism.

#g talks #antisemitism #i blocked the user without response bc I’m not going to deal with that asshole #but they basically said that #unless you’re a governing power you shouldn’t be talking about this #and that’s real bold coming from an uneducated goy #my posts get misread a million times bc no one actually investigates blogs before responding in anger #so it’s not something new to me #i just find it incredibly ironic and infuriating the way goy tungle dot com users dismiss jews they don’t even care to know #over a post or thread they know nothing about #and don’t care to know the context of #like we’re having a whole ass conversation over here with important context #and it’s understood between all of us what we believe regarding the loss of human life #and how the Israeli government is handling everything #but then this fucking goy comes in at random #ready to fucking SCREAM #proving the point of everyone in the thread #I’m so fucking tired #mine #/mobile #/okay to reblog

it’s absolutely insane to me how my twitter timeline i see a tweet talking about the super bowl and then right after a tweet about people were carpet bombed im rafah like… i’m so angry that i genuinely have no words this is the world we live in i guess

#i have no words anymore #i’m just fuel with anger i’ve been waking up every morning #to more bombings more people dying and being slaughtered #there’s no guarantee there will be a ceasefire soon #our governments don’t hold isnotreal accountable #some of them are even financing the genocide #and somehow all some people care abt is a stupid american football game #where it was basically a zionist convention #like i can’t lose hope bc i am not allowed #but yesterday/today was one of those days where i was flabbergasted by how #people have no shame no one has any shame at all #people are dying and no one fucking cares it’s honestly wild to me #but i hope someday when palestine is eventually free #all you have is unmeasurable amounts of shame #bc you didn’t stand with palestinians and you didn’t care #being in the wrong side of history should haunt you forever for all i care #i’m tired #tris.txt

I’ve contemplated a lot about why Luke was the sort of person that Anakin felt inspired enough to turn his back on Sidious and the dark side for, while Padme, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka weren’t.

While Anakin does become a hypocrite who no one was obligated to forgive after he turned dark, regardless of his tragic circumstances and compromised agency, I think Luke was the one who finally inspired him to turn back because, in spite of as “above it all” as Obi-Wan, Padme, and even Ahsoka wanted to believe they were, they still had many of the same issues Anakin developed of feeling pressured to be people pleasers to corrupt authority figures, expectations, and rules that they knew were wrong out of fear of the unknown under compromised agency, moral hypocrisy, pride, manipulative tactics, selfishness, and/or an exceedingly vengeful side in their anger that they were not willing to pull back on when they dueled him or other enemies that piss him off.

Padme, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka loved Anakin, but they were also prideful, self-centered, and terrified people who were too afraid to admit that their methods flawed, too afraid to take a stand against the standards of these broken systems they were born into, too afraid to admit they were wrong, too afraid to take risks to do better, and too afraid to admit that they weren’t as “above it all” as they pretended to be.

Luke Skywalker being Anakin’s son is definitely one of the influencing factors that inspires him to turn back to the light. However, it’s also because Luke is self-accepting of his bad decisions, flaws, and mistakes. He’s aware that the old Jedi Order was deeply flawed, hypocritical, and misguided, in spite of their good intentions. He’s unwilling to stoop to the same level as his enemies. He won’t let himself get carried away with baiting his father into a fight when he gets angry, and start making justifications of how he’s “right” just because he has good intentions, just because he was fucked with first, just because he’s not a Sith, or just because it’s “too dangerous” to take a risk to be honest, kind, and offer one of his enemies (his father) a better opportunity when he sees that he really is also a victim of Sidious who is still struggling against his darker instincts and searching for freedom and love from family. He refuses to enable Anakin’s slave mentality and ultimately refuses to let his father believe that “Anakin Skywalker is dead.”

This isn’t saying that Anakin is an innocent, that Luke was obligated to forgive him, or that his victims didn’t have valid reasons to fear him and resent him. Of course, they did. The point is that in those little moments where he tries to reach out to Ahsoka, Padme, and Obi-Wan about being unhappy with the Jedi and keeping secrets of his marriage before going dark, backs off, says “Don’t make me destroy you,” or lets them go, they all had an opportunity to refuse to further perpetuate the cycle of abuse by acting in anger and vengeance. They could have refused to encourage his sense of compromised agency. They could have broken the cycle of system sting abuse, crime, and oppression with Anakin in those instances by being the bigger person.

Instead Padme and Obi-Wan encouraged him to continue to stay with the Jedi and/or keep his marriage secret when they knew their systems were corrupt, and knew he was becoming increasingly emotionally/mentally unstable and unhappy in ways that made him a danger to himself and those around him out of fear of the unknown by pretending that he would just get better if they told him he would when he tried to say otherwise.

Instead, Ahsoka ended up declaring that she’d “avenge her master” when he refused to join her right away and told her “Anakin Skywalker is dead because he destroyed him.”

Instead, Obi-Wan egged him on into a duel on Mustafar by using Padme as bait, and refused to back off after getting him to let go of Padme from his reckless blind rage/paranoia force choke before killing her when he thought she brought Obi-Wan to kill him and even got him to a point where he could tell Obi-Wan “Don’t make me kill you.” When Anakin cornered him again 10 years later for revenge that he clearly didn’t want as much as he had convinced himself he did because he still cared about Obi-Wan deep down, tells Obi-Wan “I destroyed Anakin Skywalker, not you,” and even gives Obi-Wan a chance to run away, Obi-Wan allows Anakin to continue to believe that Anakin is dead, convinces himself that he is, and he runs away to compartmentalize his own guilt over how he mistreated Anakin.

Instead, another ten years later, Obi-Wan more or less encourages Anakin/Vader to kill him by just standing there after confronting him in A New Hope, and saying “I’ll become more powerful than you can ever imagine.”

So the reason as to why Anakin can’t be inspired to atone or do better by Ahsoka, Padme, or Obi-Wan isn’t just because he’s a deeply flawed person. It’s because they are too, they live in denial of it, and let him live in denial of it, too.

#Padme Amidala was deeply flawed #Anakin was deeply flawed #Ahsoka was deeply flawed #obi wan was deeply flawed #and they all lived in denial of just how deeply broken and flawed they all were and kept encouraging Anakin to pretend like he was okay #sacrificing his better instincts and happiness to try to conform to these broken systems that they all knew were messed up out of fear #until he finally stopped trying to fight back and became a serious problem for their well-being out of fear of these corrupt authorities too #when he couldn’t get anyone to listen when he DID try to reach out for emotional support and escape to fight back #like in spite of telling them that ‘Anakin Skywalker is dead’ are obi-wan Ahsoka and Luke willing to let him believe that or not? #when he tells obi-wan and Luke ‘don’t make me destroy you’ hesitated to kill them or gives them a chance to reason with him or walk away #are they going to run away act defensively or stoop to his level and try to kill him when he’s hesitating and being vulnerable? #when he gives obi wan ahsoka and Luke a chance to back off in their duels as vader are they going to fight run away or try to reason? #when he tells Ahsoka revenge is not the Jedi way is she going to agree that vengeance is bad or stoop to his level? #it’s because Anakin is desperately looking for someone who is good and self-aware enough to realize that both sides are messed up #and he can feel safe just being the best version of himself rather than throwing away his moral integrity and sense of self to conform #it’s like he’s testing people he cares about to see if they will encourage him to break the cycle of toxicity in the galaxy #to realize that both the old Jedi/Republic and Sith/Empire were deeply fucked up governments and institutions #or continue to enable and perpetuate it themselves #to not stoop to his level and enable or perpetuate terrible behaviors choices or crimes ‘for good’ fear of the unknown or revenge #to these broken systems that enable and perpetuate systematic abuse of power crime and vengeance ‘for the greater good’ out of fear #pt jedi critical #anti jedi apologists #anakin skywalker #darth vader #luke skywalker #Luke was the only one who could inspire Anakin to redeem himself because he was the only one who didn’t get caught up in the cycle himself #and the only one who refused to let his father believe that ‘Anakin was dead’

Republicans: I don’t care if barely any minors get trans surgeries, one is too many and we need to ban them! Protect the kids!

Also Republicans: We can’t ban guns just because a few hundred children got murdered in mass shootings! Protect our guns!

#politics #the fact that every single political argument these days breaks down into republicans wanting to do whatever they want #and not wanting anyone else to be allowed to do what they want #stop government overreach…except for that #banning this won’t stop that…but we ARE going to ban this and this #parents should be allowed to decide how to parent their kids…except if they do that #you either believe in government regulation or you don’t #i don’t think we’d be quite as mad if you had some fucking consistency #but you’re all hypocrites who want everyone to bend to your will #and then accuse us of doing that #also if you think I’m exaggerating this post I have heard both of these arguments multiple times #read the first one just now on Twitter which inspired this #they don’t care about facts I keep saying this

A comment on an article about Lone Star 💀 sir if you think lone star is politically correct I’d hate to see you watch a show on a network that isn’t too scared to actually say fuck you to conservatives

#like lone star might be surface level ‘woke’ but it’s too nice to conservatives for me #sure it makes little jabs here and there #but it could be a whole lot more political #it could explore the abortion bans and the EMTs having to save women’s lives when they’re forced into impossible situations #it could have Carlos be conflicted about having to work a protest and be treated like he’s siding with the enemy #it could get into the government wanting to ban trans healthcare #or heck people not wanting care from a gay EMT or a Black one I know they jokingly did it in s1 but they could go so far into it #they just don’t #or like ya know mass shootings happening all the damn time #you want politics? lone star doesn’t do politics it just has people who aren’t cis white men just EXISTING and somehow it’s too PC 💀 #babes this is like kindergarten level pc #not even touching on the fact that they did a nazi plot and didn’t outright say fuck nazis and anyone who sympathises with them

What is the point of requiring masks to walk into a building, only to leave it up for personal choice once people sit down for a performance? Do you understand how masks work?

#look. obviously the most relevant reason to be distressed about waning COVID precautions is the death and eugenics #but the personal things are hitting hard as well #there’s a show coming to DC that me my sibling and my mom all really want to go to #but a. saw people saying that was how enforcement was working which renders it unsafe #as well as b. the venue does food/drink anyway which annoys me in its own way #remember when we were all making fun of some conservative asshole for acting like taking off your mask ‘just to eat’ was good enough? #bc we realized viruses don’t care why we’re taking off our mask #but now suddenly it’s al masks are required unless eating or drinking #basically cancelling a large portion of any protection you might have gained. #and for what? so people could eat some popcorn or have a beer inside #(obviously it’s different for people with blood sugar/etc medical needs #but it’s not like anyone cares about disabled people any other time vis a vis masks so I don’t fully believe they actually care about #finding an equitable solution ya know?) #fuck the government and cdc for sacrificing people on the altar of capitalism #but also fuck people who can’t wear a mask/quarantine/not go out/etc to keep disabled people alive and even slightly welcome in public #yeah my mental health would be better if I went out more! #except! it would be balanced out by the negative impact of all the people I’m condemning to isolation and death #we have solutions we know solutions #but people were left to the mercies of a government that didn’t care and were bombarded by individualistic bullies in its place #so now a show that is literally synthesized to be my jam #is a biohazard.

Never mind I’m not going to reply to that person. If you say you think a country is currently pretty dope for taking actions against Israel and someone is like hey, just an fyi, that government is killing its own people and has severe human rights issues so please don’t idolize the government like this and your response to this is to go “yeah like I said, I’m sure it has its own issues”… like I don’t know what to say to you!

#vt.talk #like I’m baffled! and appalled! #the response should’ve been something like oh thanks for letting me know. or no response. I don’t care. #cause the only reason I responded was cause this person said ‘based on recent news’ so I assumed uneducated #now I’m assuming don’t care #like idk what to tell you man. a member of my family in his first year at college had to hide in a classroom cause the police were killing #student protesters or else beating them #the fear you get when you can’t talk with your family to see if they’re safe because no one can get into Iran. cause they shut off the #internet. like what the fuck why are these just ‘their own issues’ to you??? #I mentioned a singer has recently been SENTENCED TO DEATH BY THE GOVERNMENT for PROTEST SONGS #oh but that doesn’t matter. that’s not important. bitch.

I just wanted to tell you that your post about families and wedding stuff was relatable and I’m sorry you’re dealing with all of that. I can’t relate 100% since I am not getting married, but I’ve also never thought about it too much, since I have this fear that people who accept me now won’t accept me if I tell them I’m marrying a woman one day. I dunno, I think straight people are weird when it comes to weddings, like they didn’t think you were serious before that? Like it was a phase? (cont.)

#thank you 🥺🥺🥺🥺 #i also never thought about getting married until somewhere along my relationship with ayesha lol #i mean gay marriage was legalized in the usa when i was almost done with college so like! never occurred to me that it could happen for me #i def never had any wedding fantasizes and did not see myself settling down #i was actually like - marriage is so fucking heteronormative i will DIE before getting married!!! #the government does not own my love!!!! fuck the wedding industry!!!! etc #and i think i still have some hangups about that and feel like a sellout EVEN THO i want to marry aish more than anything #just making that clear lol #i think that’s also why they’re annoying me so much more than usual bc again they know how important ayesha is to me #but it’s okay 🫂 i was feeling my feelings the other day when i posted that #and now i’m just like. honestly if i was marrying a man my family still sucks so much i don’t think it would make a difference lolol #but i do agree re: straight ppl show their true colors when gay people try to get married. for sure #the main reason i am getting annoyed and frustrated is bc i have had multiple people #rsvp and un-rsvp and rsvp again. and then tell me oh they don’t actually know if they can make it #like girl u gotta actually lemme know this is not a house party it is a wedding. LIKE. aaaaargh #i also know i will neeeeever fucking hear the end of it from my mother and i think that’s what i’m dreading the most #‘i do so much for xyz and showed up for xyz’s wedding and did xyz for my brother and now he won’t even be going to my daughter’s WEDDING??!’ #like. she’s already started that nonsense. and idk how to make it even more clear that i do not even care about her stupid brother 💀 #anyway thank you for being understanding and for being so nice to me :’) ILY
