Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

It is hopeless...People are well... as we Serbs say "stoka" (meaning sheep , cows and other domestic animals).
I am just watching here in Australia how in this September election people are voluntarily going to vote for those who will ( and are openly promising to)"slaughter" them. They not only, like hypnotized, are going exactly to a slaughter, they are even cheering it...
Honestly it's not that Labor is not going to " slaughter" some of them too by striping them of some basic services but with conservatives it is going to be "bloodbath"... For some totally unknown reason people simply can not see themselves being the part of the group that is going to be slaughtered. For example conservatives are going to get rid of a lot of public servants , and they openly are promising this ( and on a state level here in QLD they already are doing this) but for some reason people do not believe that they personally are going to lose either their job ( they probably need a memo with their name on it) or service that those public servant provided.It is always about someone else being a loser...For some unknown reasons people tend to see themselves as a part of establishment that conservatives are working for, just because they managed to get a huge mortgage ,loan on their few cars including  4WD , and huge loan on their numerous Visa cards...Incredible. They simply do not get it that they are in " debt slavery"...that there is no way that they will repay their debts ever and that in a nano second they can be striped of all their "possessions".
It is hopeless...
