Current German government contains a plagiarist and some boomer who was very likely involved in a major corruption scheme back in the 80s and only won election because the actual favorite got caught laughing at flood victims.

Are there any governments of the world where the important positions are actually staffed by those with the skills and background to be in them? It seems so rare and yet it shouldn't be.

Actually I remember one of my work colleagues (this was around 10 years ago, mind) saying that Singapore was pretty good for having actual industry qualified people in govt. Anyone know if that's still (or even was) the case?
Despite being 87% of all available shows...

Singapore is a police state ran by Chinese expats and they don't mess around. They purposefully keep token brown people positions around to keep them and check and have presidential rotations so that brown people must be voted in to power on a schedule (purely for show). They don't tolerate and monkey shines though.BobT wrote: ↑ February 20th, 2024, 02:08Actually I remember one of my work colleagues (this was around 10 years ago, mind) saying that Singapore was pretty good for having actual industry qualified people in govt.

Singapore always sounded based when mariners talked about it. They'd always know somebody who got caned for behaving like a nigger.
When other countries sent a boat of slimey prostitutes to you Singapore send customs to your ship and inspect everyone and throw all your contraband away in front of your face, and if you don't like it swim.

Argentina has first monthly surplus in 12 years.
1 month after electing someone politically incorrect as president.
According to an interview he did, they fired 50,000 federal employees and cut 200,000 social programs.

Interesting article defending browns' and libtards' inability to make a successful moon landing.

He should be required to commit sudoku for this.
And they assassinated poor Abe, bet he was holding all this shit back, so they made an example out of him later on.

And out of all the races/cultures to appeal to, he appeals to the roaches of the world. You let a 1000 Indians into Japan, they'll be 5000 by the end of the year. They multiply quick, and will result in entire regions being turned into "little Indias" in a matter of a decade.

When I googled moon landing crash, I get hits for Russia. When I googled moon landing fail, I get the US lander story. Point being, niggers cannot land on the moon, only the germannic ubermensch can.

wuhtIt is becoming increasingly clear to more and more people in the West that something has gone terribly wrong with the Ukraine project. Predictions and projections didn’t pan out and the West doesn’t seem to know what to do.
all the predictions were that russia would win before the month ended
this is some advanced history rewriting

I thought Keiv would be glassed in a week. I'm utterly shocked how shit of a job Russia has done - I still expect Ukraine to lose the war of attrition but this is really a "2 more weeks" meme at this point.rusty_shackleford wrote: ↑ April 2nd, 2024, 14:08wuhtIt is becoming increasingly clear to more and more people in the West that something has gone terribly wrong with the Ukraine project.

Even if Russia wins tomorrow - pretty pathetic. If Russia was actually competent - way less people would of died on both sides. I don't really give a shit if Ukraine is independent or not - I'm just sick of seeing young Ukraine / Russian families / husbands / children being carpet bombed and executed in trenches by walmart drones.

I miss the days when I felt like I was under-average in terms of intellect, where I looked to others and thought... man, I want to be as smart as they are, know what they know, etc... and it drove me to learn new things, expand my understanding, etc...
Now I look around and a lot of the people are in positions that I used to think required a lot of effort and ability, but are so completely stupid they lack even the most basic concepts of rational thought. I feel way out of place for my time.
