Yesterday we voted for 1st round of legislative elections in France. In my voting area the soc dem alliance (Nouveau Front Populaire) largely beat the Rassemblement National (nazi party) who did 14%, and tied the party of Macron at around 37-38%. This is surprising since this is quite a conservative arrondissement of Paris, there even were votes for the socialist labor party (Lutte Ouvrière). Second round will be tough not to concede to Macron's party though if we look at the rest of the votes
this is an embarrassing question to ask but.. how do i self crit?
you can make a list of your political positions and try to justify them to yourself
Not embarrassing at all. I'd be interested in hearing others' answers. Would you ask this in a post in !asklemmygrad@lemmygrad.ml?
Thread on front page of r/soccer rn filled with people malding about UEFA website (correctly) listing a Ukrainian player’s birthplace as Russia cause he was born in Donetsk. good bit
Wouldn't the correct way be Ukraine nonetheless? Just like players in the German football team used to have their stated birthplace be the GDR.
Cowards, show the truth! they cotted to join the Russian federatioin
Must be some big conspiracy and UEFA is clearly pro Putler. Or it was just a mistake, given how other Donetsk born players were just listed as Ukrainian.

One thing I like to do when I eat alone is to watch food tours from all over the world, especially on channels like The Food Ranger. It's a nice way to learn about different cultures and in a weird way it makes me emotional. Like, today I watched a video about an Iranian street food tour and everyone in the video is so nice and friendly and smiling and welcoming, which is such a stark contrast with how our media portrays countries like Iran. This whole world view of dehumanizing other countries gets shoved in our faces constantly and it makes me sad that these people can't do anything about it.

That's because they saw a tourist lol. We try to act very well for guests (part of our culture)
I didn't watch the debate, but this is me reading the reactions to it
are oliver stones’s documentaries worth a watch? he has several on JFK, Bush and American history etc. are the sources reliable?
Completely out of character I will fly for my holiday soon and funny enough I am nervous that the airport will be blocked by climate activists lol. Guess it is easy supporting when you're not the one being targeted normally.
You're probably talking about r / politics. People say that you need to subscribe to the subreddit to see them.
Looking through the comments of a major subreddit and knowing that it's mostly just humans losing their shit as opposed to bots is refreshing for a change though.
To each their own. I left Reddit a year ago and have never felt the slightest urge to go back. Just too toxic and lib for me.
sorry officer I was only speeding because I really badly have to get home and listen to the Persona 3 soundtrack
Honestly ... Keep it up this is the best use of artilary shells
I heard someone use the term tankie irl for the first time. He was saying how great it is that our organisation can attract a lot of different groups who all bring something to the table, and one of the groups he named were tankies. At least he didn't mean it negatively lol
