Pointless dispute
Some time ago I read a discussion on the internet about cyclists riding
on pavements. This particular was about the area of Merkury shopping centre and I found it pointless for many reasons. Generally I agree that
cyclists should ride on bike lanes or on the streets, however it's very
dangerous to ride on the streets of Warsaw because many drivers
don't pay attention to cyclist and overtake them at high speed and
without keeping proper space between the car and the biker. Second thing
is that cyclist are rudely told to ride on the other side of the car
lanes where in fact the bike lane is but it is this side of the street where the restaurants, shops
and offices are located so you would need to go long way to the zebra crossing and back again on pavement which is nonsense. Last thing which I
noticed was a general conclusion saying that cyclists are bad and don't
care about the people walking on pavement. Bike society isn't as mean
and rude to people walking on the centre of bike lane or crossing it
wherever and whenever they want. It would help if people were able to
make more objective judgements and before they criticize someone they
should think if they are not doing equally bad things to others.
Why are alt-right politicians becoming more and more popular?
For sure some people just don't like actions of left side politicians
who were in charge for many years now and maybe the results weren't
satisfying for some people, who blame them for their misery. Alt-right
politicians promise what people want to get promised and thus manipulate
them. That's why societies voting for them don't see any bad effects of
what they are planning to do and they are somehow blind to reality.
Also in countries like Brazil which is going through big crisis and it's
going to collapse people think that politicians who were in charge
during this crisis can't help anymore. They are desperately trying to
change anything and they believe that voting on alt-right politicians is
the only option to achieve that.
