5 parties. No real "friendly" parties atm but we are better of riding this mandate alone to gain more popular support.
There is one more big party who tends to be on the conservative side but they have a pretty bad reputation (objectively speaking, they had some really bad corruption scandals and there were mountains of irefutable proof).
if the RDMSZ would stop pushing idiotic territorial claims and REEE screeches for autonomy no one would have a problem with you
Plus, Romania is special as it is for having those minority parties, they probably should not exist
Not really...they have cops actively patrol the streets to fine people for exactly this thing. If I hadn't run into it actually happening, I wouldn't have confirmed this.
Also, if I refuse to pay that fine I will be unable to receive any documents/deal with any national offices and there's a very high chance I will have to in the near future.
Coming from Romania...that's quite close to impossiblity. I can't say I'm poor but I probably don't have the money for something like that. And 99.99% of Romanians probably don't ever earn enough to ever make a serious investment in a place like the US. It's just the difference of standard of living.
1k USD per month in the US is dirt poor, probably. 1k USD per month in Romania? Quite well off!
It's as divided as everywhere else. My family and some of my friends endorse Trump though (I know a few liberals too, sadly, and some are just not into politics, especially foreign, so they don't have a certain position on this matter).
I got my news from all sorts of places. When I was younger, I began with the mainstream media because it was easy to access, but I saw many red flags. I kept seeing them just praise certain ideologies and never say anything good about the others, which made me do research on them (why is x ideology so bad?) only to change my mind completely about the MSM and neoliberalism or however you want to call this wretched scum that is this new leftism. I guess my father who is usually interested in politics and is also a conservative has provided me with resources (he never indoctrinated me or anything, I actually had full freedom to form my own political views and he only intervened when I already identified myself as a conservative).
My family also has a history of WWII and WWI service. My great grandfather was a war hero for the Austria-Hungarian army in WWI (received the most important decoration a soldier could receive).
My grandfather was even sent to a labor camp during communist rule although he suffered from a very dangerous (yet still treatable) disease. While he stayed in the labor camp, the disease got worse and became untreatable. He was still able to keep it under control for about 10-12 more years, but it cut his life short by at least 20-25 years. My father was just 14 when he died. This is what commies do and it's our duty to save our world from this plague.
Why he was sent there? He gave a few old clothes to a man who knocked at their door asking for hand-me-downs because he desperately needed. Turned out he was a resistance member who fled the army to join the rest of the resistance in the mountains. That pocket of resistance quickly fell and during tortu-, I mean, interrogation he named everyone that helped him.
Agreed with the best! Allow me to throw a guess, the tie is Obama-Carter or Obama-Bush?
