Question for irl Europeans: how divisive would you say European politics are compared to the US?

They can be polarising at times no doubt (and some countries struggle with corruptions big time) but I wouldn't say that it reaches a point where it resembles the polarised political climate in the US.

final post for today, idk what flag I want so I'm kinda changing, until I decide, the one I have on (knockoff Alabama) looks cool, but I like the other one, the "inspired by Eco-Paris Reformation.

i dont worship, i agree what they did was great in freeing our country from brits, i dont support their opinions nor do i think they were good men. half of them were alcoholic domestic abusers. but that doesnt change what they did was good and i see no issue with celebrating the good they did.

This is one of those things I am too European to understand lol

I mean, 4 parties have been in the government since I think 1959 in my country, so not tooo much

though SP and SVP do polarize sometimes, for good or bad

I'm just confused, how they react to Britain in regards to their past
like it happened more than 200 years ago, move on

And the US didn't until 1865?

There's no chance of an armed mob storming Westminster or Holyrood, regardless of how much people disagree with each other.

Hey, that’s just the sign of a healthy democracy

We have more parties but historically 4 have been the most represented. Recently our two green parties have also entered the "big 4" club in terms of election results. So currently we are mostly governed by 6 parties :) That's the one thing I very much miss in England, having more than 2.5 relevant parties (Lib-Dem only half counts as being relevant IMO).

Yeah 2 party systems seem to be not so democratic

What's your elo? Mine's 1059 in rapid.

I don't think hosting a chess tourney is a great idea bc not many NSers play chess.

Is it just me, or is the last page of the Moderation forums… weird? There’s a bunch of thread from January with code in them. They also say last post was by Guest, Dec 31, 1969.

Eurovision 2022: Shock, Joy, and Rock in the New Nordic Union

Bjørgvin, New Nordic Union | Annika Ulishyk | 27-05-2022

Nearly one year to the day of last year's installment, Eurovision has once again come to a close in the beautiful New Nordic host city of Bjørgvin. This year marked the Federal Kingdom of Nardin's second time participating in the regional event, this season of the contest being organized into two semi-finals with sixteen total nations competing. As part of Semi-Final 1, Nardin had to face last year's champion and host in the New Nordic Union, as well as two other Nordic favorites St. Scarlett and Laver Island. Last year disappointment had struck Nardin's representative, the folk band Poltivin Potpourri, as they failed to clinch a spot in the Grand Final.

This year, the Nardinik delegation was headed by something much different than the expected classic folk that the nation is famous for. Hailing from the Duchy of Resilic, the rising self-described "eco hard rock band" The Taiga Rangers were selected to represent at Eurovision, choosing to perform a new and never performed single called 'Subarctic Flame.' Band leader Oskar Bernsiij said the group's identity of "eco hard rock" lay in the fact that it is their mission to use their platform as entertainers to inspire climate awareness and positive action towards combating the use of fossil fuels. 'Subarctic Flame' reflects the journey to change in musical form, said Oskar, "starting slow with icy cords, building up flaming speed that grabs the imagination and makes nothing seem impossible."

The Taiga Rangers put on a truly impressive Semi-Final performance, amassing 123 points which put them in third place in their grouping and third overall going into the Grand Finale. This result alone has been enough to set Nardinik social media ablaze, with #subarctic rocketing to the top of trending lists within the hour. In a nation that has long stuck to older, more traditional forms of music, the Rangers have been embraced by many, particularly youth movements, as a new cultural infusion spreading from Resilic to the rest of the nation.

This elation was made even more so by the results of the Grand Finale. Not even having expected to finish so high in the first round, shock and joy were the buzzwords of the day as it was revealed that Nardin had won third place with 59 points, following the victor Snowfox of St. Scarlett and Cathelina of Einswenn. Spirits are high in Nardin this evening with the results of this contest; no doubt the performance will inspire many more to follow in their footsteps. As always, we look forward to next year's contest. St. Scarlett, here we come!

Perhaps this burst of culture from Resilic will spread to the rest of the Federal Kingdom?

As always, a writeup in the Krajik Times about Nardin's experience of this year's Eurovision

can't sleep 4: might play NS at this point

going undercover. the psychologist on twitter who said that sissy hypnotism porn is responsible for people being transgender. the greatest target of the 21st century. a hero of myth and legend. i must infiltrate his headquarters. his castle. his domain. i must disguise myself as a well-meaning parent concerned about rapid onset gender dysphoria, who just discovered a whole new batch of sissy hypno pornography for this expert analyst to investigate. i must act with caution, knowing this is the most dangerous mission of my professional life. but the potential for funny ha ha moments stands without compare.
