Romania's annulled election and the Tate Brother's escape

Update: Winner of Romanian Presidential Election arrested

I've seen posts on social media warning about how the Supreme court in Romanian annulled an election because they didn't like who won. Now we read the Tate brothers who were arrested in Romania were released and flew to the US. 

So what the hell is going on? I'm not really concerned about the Tate brothers. I realize they have a huge following on social media but I think they are a bit weird and extreme. The male influencer thing always seems a bit over compensating. Especially when it involves the mistreatment of women that opponents love to call misogynistic. Mistreating women is not manly. I'm not saying they are, I'm just saying it's all weird. 

As far as I'm concerned Rob Smith is a positive male role model. He's buff, smart and stable. He also has same sex attraction. I don't so it doesn't bug me. What consenting adults do is their business. The key words are consenting adults. 

I know on TikTok you can pay money to have your videos get more views from bots. Bots rule the net now. So it seems.

Jack Murphy was a male influencer and he was definitely a weirdo. Australian born YouTuber named Sydney Watson was interviewing Jack and was asking him questions from the live chat. Then she asked one and he completely lost it on her and she was like wtf? Turns out he was a real weirdo.

It turns out that Jack had written articles about letting his hot young girlfriend sleep with other men while he watched. He had also written articles about pegging. Putting large objects up his ass during intercourse. That's really weird. So he lost it on her for confirming his male influencer hypocrisy. 

Now I'm not saying the Tate brothers are anything like that. I'm just saying a lot of these self proclaimed male influencers are pretty weird. I don't know anything about the merits of the human trafficking charges against the Tate brothers. We know the Agency made up fake charges against Julian Assange when they wanted to silence him. I guess the concern is they were charged in Romania, arrested in Romania and then released. Does that mean the charges were stayed? I don't know. 

The real news is about Romania's last election. The Associated Press is reporting that "He shook Romania’s political landscape in November when he secured the first round in the presidential election, going from an obscure candidate to beating the incumbent prime minister."

"Calin Georgescu, a little-known, far-right populist, clinched the most votes and advanced to the second round to face off against reformist Elena Lasconi of the progressive Save Romania Union party." They're complaining he won the election.

"The surprising outcome left many political observers wondering how most local surveys were off, putting Georgescu behind at least five other candidates." Because the fake news is fake and so are their fake surveys. We see that all the time.

"A top court then made the unprecedented move to annul the election after allegations emerged of electoral violations and Russian interference." Russian interference? GMAFB. You're all claiming Russia is still Communist then you accuse them of hacking an election is favor of a right wing candidate? 

That's crazy. I'm sure conservatives wouldn't be so outraged if it was the either way around. If the court had annulled an election of a far left candidate over irregularities. I guess that's the concern here. The court didn't annul the election over voter fraud, it annulled the election over nonsense.

Russian interference is ridiculous but what were the electoral violations? "On Wednesday, Romanian prosecutors launched a criminal investigation against Georgescu, accusing him of election campaign funding abuses, supporting fascist groups and other offenses. The new elections have been rescheduled for May, and it isn’t clear if Georgescu can participate in the vote." OK that's crazy. The funding charges against Ruby Dhalla were fake. They made that up so she couldn't debate or run.

The fake news throws around the term far right all the time. If you're on the wrong side of the Berlin wall, anyone who is left of centre is considered far right. That's not to say the far right doesn't exist. When Donald Trump was reelected he embraced some positions that are in my opinion too far right for my liking. 

I oppose the far left and the far right. I am a moderate. I believe in balancing the extremes. Obviously if Calin Georgescu opposes the war in the Ukraine and NATO expansion, I agree with that. If he opposed lockdowns and vaccine mandates, I agree with that. There's a lot of talk about him supporting former Nazi sympathizers that I don't know. I wouldn't support that. That would be far right. Too far right for me.

Christine Anderson is a European politician that gained popularity in Canada for denouncing Justin Trudeau and supporting the Convoy. On those two issues I agree with her. Yet she has been branded far right and I think on some policies she is and on those policies I don't agree with her on. 

I realize there's a huge paranoia about antisemitism and Holocaust deniers. I talked about that quite extensively in my podcast about Zionism. What Netanyahu is doing in Gaza and West Bank is horrible. That's not Zionism, that's expansionism. Netanyahu is far right. As are his supporters who demanded the release of IDF soldiers who were sexually assaulting Palestinian prisoners.

Conservatives believe in small government, low taxes and protecting civil liberty. Far right believes in big government dictatorships. That is not Conservatism. I consistently support small government, (that means no tariffs) low taxes and civil liberty protected by law. That is what I support.
