Not sure about that story, but the really famous one was the Afghan who raped a ten-year-old boy at a public pool and the charges were dropped because the judge ruled that, due to language and cultural differences, the guy probably didn't realized that the kid didn't want to be raped.
At what point do people stand up and say, “This is not acceptable. I will not tolerate this anymore??”
I’ve been to Austria. It was… Odd. Like, a really fucking weird place, seemingly frozen in aspic since the early 1900s…
I genuinely do not think Austria has ever gotten over the fact that they were, for a time, the most powerful empire in Christendom… Seriously.
Czech Republic, which is culturally extremely similar, albeit less religious, is better in pretty much every way, besides skiing. I would imagine being invaded by fucking Stalin maybe gives you a bit more perspective on things, but then again, Anschluss, so who fucking knows..? 🤷🏻♂️
One thing I will say is that Vienna is like… The “anti” Berlin… Perhaps surprisingly, perhaps not.
Berlin’s problems (now and during Weimar) stem from it being way, waaaay too liberal. Vienna’s problems, and Austria’s as a whole, stem from it being essentially a parody of moral busybody conservatism, like the rural Midwest/the Bible Belt, but with an added dose of extreme cultural arrogance…
You (as in, general “you”) might consider yourself “conservative”, but trust me, what you see in Austria, in particular Vienna and Saltzburg, is some weird form of extreme conservatism, like wanting to live in a fucking museum. In theory, cool, but in reality? You end up with this shit…
We’re being governed by morally bankrupt, cowardly tyrants.
These people still don't get that democracy is a failure. It will always end up this way. The cowardly tyrants aren't just the authorities in Vienna, it's Brittany's neighbors and friends and family that support them or at least do nothing to stop them.
Mass gatherings ("protests") only have meaning as an implicit threat of overwhelming violence. Take that away, and you do not have an army of men outside your doors, but a herd of sheep, and you will not be swayed.
The past two years have really showed me that literally the only thing that matters to humanity is violence. Every "social change" has just been a friendly facade backed up by violence. It's the sole driver of all change, it always has been, and it always will be.
Currently, the left is the only faction willing to enact violence in order to get what they want, and as such they're getting absolutely everything they ask for and then some. It's probably too late for the right to learn this lesson.
Austria is being governed by the same people it has been governed by for centuries. This IS Austria and Austrians, this is their culture. Anyone who believes differently is only deluding themselves.
Austria's greatest achievement is convincing the world that Hitler was German and Beethoven was Viennese.
Wasn’t Austria the country that let afghan refugees murder some little kids?

True story.
"Sexual emergency" was an Iraqi rapefugee.
Well, that’s enough internet for me, today…

But yeah, Austria is fucking weird, man…

Pleasantville, peak-Habsburg Empire edition… 🤦🏻♂️

Vienna is very much like a giant version of the village in that, from experience. As is fucking Lucerne, in Switzerland.
Zurich is not. Zurich is where the chads are at, lol.
Possibly the only sane city in that region of the Alps, along with maybe Graz (in Austria). 🤷🏻♂️
Oh, and Basel was fun. I liked Basel. But that’s pretty much Zurich anyway, so… Eh.
Problem with Basel is it is where Big Pharma is based, so if we were to nuke anywhere..? That should probably be first choice… 😑

Those demonstrations really showed them, huh?
In history, leaders feared crowds because the crowds would actually do more than just stand around with a bunch of signs.

Didn’t they have a based leader a few years ago? Whatever happened there?
He was one of the many sudden resignations of world leaders in 2021, ostensibly due to a corruption scandal.
Great, now try enforcing it.
What wedge issues? What 'certain agendas'?
