that guy,the mayor of Bucharest, has a lot of scandals related to him, the most sensitive one being that he refused to give an construction permit(the law forces him to do it) for a private children cancer hospital, after the scandal he gave it a few days ago. The company that wanted to develop the mentioned hospital sue him and won, but he still refused, so basically he gave himself the role of a judge and jury. The huge number of posts that promote him is because he has some very "generous" contributors for which he refused to name in his campaign

So, I wasn’t planning to respond to you because, sadly, propaganda has influenced your opinion a lot, but I’m going to give it a shot. Nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes. This is why I think it’s very stupid to judge Nicusor based on just one issue. First of all, it wasn’t about the fact that he didn’t want the extension of the private hospital. He believed it would fit better in another location. That area is very small and already super crowded. Daily, there are traffic jams, etc. Secondly, his campaign was very transparent, you can see the list of people who donated on the site. For example, I donated, and I also know some others who did. I cannot understand why people take every little thing and use it against someone with good intentions. Do not forget that the person who accused him of not wanting to sign for the private hospital is the same one who hasn’t done anything for the country. What has his party accomplished in terms of building public hospitals over the years?

yeah the guy before you told me he’s getting a lot of shit from the state-controlled media - the same thing that’s happening here. I was also surprised to hear that Calin Georgescu was excluded from the campaign after people found out that he was backed by the russians. Here in hungary these parties are either Orbán’s party or some minor satellite parties, they keep letting them exist. I really hope you guys can fight the tyranny, I wish the best of luck for the Romanian people.

I recently visited and it really reminded me of Romania in communism, It was a sunday and the city was dead after 6PM, mall security was really mean to us, I needed to use the restroom in a mall after i ordered from the food court and they straight up yelled at me: NO! Propaganda posters anti EU and zelensky every 2 meters, idk what happened because i've been to hungary before during Orban's regime and it was not AS bad. Ah, also the roads were absolutely degraded compared to the last time i visited, and up untill reaching the Romanian "border" i observed that the lights were completely off everywhere. Another funny thing i saw was that they were selling watches in the city center with the hungarian map still containing Transilvania. :)).

As a romanian he is indeed the best option, I like that he is skilled at some other things besides politics, he was a mathematics Olympian. That being said if you ask me personally I would not vote for him either if i had a better choice, each one of the candidates is going the conservatove route in some way or another and coming forward very publicly in regards to their family values and stuff, all of them support religion which again, i don't see why that is a required topic in a political debate. The one that has the closest views to mine in terms of social matters (not personal views because she is also a religious biot, but what she showcases from a political standpoint) is Lasconi, who is not even pictured here, yet she is totally unhinged lately. All in all as a romanian i'm just happy that the Călin Georgescu debackle ended and i can not live in the fear of votes anymore, i belive that whoever wins will still steal and they are all two peas in a pod, but at least none of them is a literal russian spy came from the depths of tiktok propaganda. (Even though i'm not sure about simion and ponta not being russian spies to some extent, but at least they are doing their campain in plain sight).

Unfortunately Reddit is not the correct place to ask. Most Romanians on Reddit are center-right wing pro democracy, pro European, and that have a relatively good education.

Romanian reddit is center right because they're mostly IT workers and people with higher education who want do get paid more and don't give a shit about everyone else.

Lasa-ma sa te inchid cu urmatoarea ipoteza: daca AUR sau orice alta miscare conservatoare iti creste netul de la aprox 55%, la 70%, iar USR face fix invers, tu vei vota tot USR, pentru ca votul se acorda social, nu economic. Daca s-ar vota economic, Partidul Democrat modern, precum si toate miscarile neo-marxiste aferente nu ar mai exista, pentru simplul fapt ca au bagat Occidentul de 3 ori in criza economica in mai putin de 15 ani. Cu toate acestea, inca pierd alegeri la limita, sau chiar castiga - Canada. Iar centrismul e o minciuna pentru simplul fapt ca ideologiile ce se incadreaza in logica de stanga-dreapta sunte menite sa se anuleze, nu sa se completeze. Dar continua sa dai copy-paste la niste aberatii care n-au nicio treaba cu realitatea si pe care oricum nu le intelegi. Omul meu vrea sa ma convinga ca usereul e pe partea lui John Locke.

Nici eu nu cred in centrism dar cred ca ai extrapolat si presupus mult prea mult din ceea ce am zis eu si te-ai enervat prea tare. 1. Problema care apare din exercițiul de imaginație propus de tine este chiar simpla: nu am nicio problema cu a plătii 45% din venit pe taxe daca văd si ceva de pe urma asta. Spitale? Autostrăzi? Cai ferate? Securitate socială? Orice care ar justifica faptul ca lucram 2 săptămâni din 4 pentru taxe? Evident, si cu banii luați, si fără rezultate din banii ăia nu îmi convine. Așadar, o sa modific întrebarea ta astfel: preferi 45% taxe cheltuite corect sau 30% taxe cheltuite corect? O sa îți răspund sincer: 45% (conceptul de taxare progresiva nu ne este străin dar hai sa nu complicăm povestea). Da, as prefera un net mai mare dar, daca in spital mor, la școală învăț ca acum 120 de ani si pe autostrada imi explodează pompa de apa de la vibrații (true story), nu ma incălzesc inca câteva sute de lei. 2. Vorbești cumva de partidul democrat modern care a redresat economia SUA si dupa Reagan, si dupa Bush Sr., si dupa Bush Jr., si dupa Trump? Sau te referi de fapt la "succesul enorm" al ultimelor 100 zile de Trump? Hai sa nu ne căcăm pe noi, partidul republican modern este o bătaie de joc. Americanii nu gândesc prea mult si au si memoria proastă, ca dupa ce Trump i-a omorât pe Covid, l-au mai votat o data. Caută si tu "S&P 500" pe net si lasa-ma cu ideile anti-democrati că nu m-am născut ieri. Nu ii iubesc dar când văd alternativele... 3. Centrismul este cu adevărat o minciună, pentru ca ceea ce înseamnă in realitate este "eu nu vreau sa supăr pe nimeni/e ok si asa/lasa ca merge". Centristul nu e centrist, doar spune asta pentru ca e laș și nu are tupeu să își formeze/susțină părerile. Pot, in teorie, sa vreau sa platesc mai puține taxe fără sa vreau, simultan, sa bag in constituție că relațiile homosexuale sunt ilegale. Pot, de asemenea, sa consider ca e bine ca plătim taxe mari, ca asta ajuta populația generala, dar sa nu imi placa mie oamenii de culoare. Oamenii reali nu urmează tipologii dramaturgice. Toti sunt complexi, toti au idei care nu se pupă, toți si le exprimă diferit. Asta nu inseamna neapărat ca sunt centriști. Realitatea te obliga sa prioritizezi lucrurile, iar ipoteticul clujean absolvent de IT va vota cu USR-ul taxelor mari chiar daca el isi dorește taxe mai mici pentru ca vrea sa își susțină prietenii străini, de alte orientări sexuale, de culoare, etc. Asta nu il face centrist. 4. Nu vreau sa te conving de nimic legat de partide sau de primii oameni ai partidelor. Ipoteza pe care incerc sa o argumentez este ca oamenii sunt complexi iar incercarea ta de a-i clasifica drept centristi cand ei sunt ori confuzi, ori prosti, ori indeciși, sau când doar au alte priorități decât tine este incorectă. Nu in ultimul rând, daca vrei o conversație civilizată, nu iti oferii parerea cu misto-uri, luat peste picior si alte porcării de meltean bombardier cu taper fade, ochelari de soare cub, vestimentație de final boss si e36 316i compact tuning led jumbo 15 lei fara fiscal. Serios acum, ori discutăm omenește si vedem unde duce schimbul de idei, ori poți continua cu a presara pisaturi bait prin reply ca eu sa ma "supy" si doar ajungem sa ne pierdem vremea. Las-o dreacu că nu suntem pe sintetic.

Daca mai era nevoie de vreo dovada ca doar dai copy-paste la propaganda de pe reddit. Omul meu imi da S&P 500 ca exemplu. Da bro, S&P500 a dus-o mai bine ca oricand cand muncitorul de santier sau cel din fabrica stateau acasa si nu puteau munci => nu faceau bani; cand buticul de la coltul strazii era inchis cu lunile, ambele din cauza covidului. Amazonul si cine vrei tu din S&P 500 au rupt atunci. Asta inseamna ca toata lumea o ducea bine? Sau ca sa fiu mai precis - ca majoritatea o duceau bine? Ce gandire sinistra. Sau cand Obama a semnat bailoutul din 2009, S&P500 s-a dus imediat in sus. Asa s-a recuperat si americanul de rand, care pierduse o masina, o casa, un job? Ai trecut si tu prin aceeasi criza aici. Pana in 2012 (cel devreme) nu putem vorbi de o recuperare reala pentru omul de rand, nicaieri in tarile afectatate de criza. Insa omul meu vrea sa ma convinga ca 2019, finalul anilor '80, inceputul anilor '90 erau de fapt crizele economice. Cand propaganda bate realitatea.

Ambele sunt logice dar decizia finala de a spune prefer taxele mici cu impactul in administratie est un proces rational, nu logic.

"Pula mea" in sus, "pula mea" in jos. Ai făcut teoria chibritului la un concept simplu. Normal că părerea ta legată de politică e corectă si a mea nu. Este evident din faptul că, in loc sa raspunzi la ce căcat am scris eu, mi-ai făcut lecție despre diferența lexicală dintre cuvintele "rațional" si "logic" si mi-ai dat un exemplu de logică. Vrei mai bine dar ca sa ai mai bine ai nevoie de salariu mai mare => e logic sa vrei salariul mai mare, ca sa îți fie bine. Vrei salariu mai mare dar ti-ai atins limita profesionala => e logic ca vrei taxe mai mici, ca sa ai salariul mai mare, ca sa iti fie mai bine. Evident ca asta este incompatibil cu "a vrea o țară ca afară" pentru ca, *logic*, pentru a dezvolta România este nevoie de banii din bugetele pe care tu vrei sa le micșorezi ca sa îți fie strict ție mai bine. Si opțiunea asta este logică pentru ca nu s-a născut din nimic. Ilogic este sa vrei si taxe mici, si spital modern. Hai sa nu contestăm ce e logic si ce nu e logic. Nu trebuie să despicăm firu-n patru. E lesne de înțeles la ce m-am referit.* * Daca nu e clar, atunci incerc mai jos o extorsiune a unui degajament cum ai făcut tu. 1. Iubești oamenii => nu vrei sa fie persecutați => vrei sa fie protejați de lege impotriva discriminării față de particularitățile lor => esti de stânga social 2. Exemplul anterior cu vrutul de taxe mai mici. 3. Rezultatul logic din (1) si (2) este ca iubești oamenii îndeajuns de mult încât sa lupți pentru a-i apăra de persecuție dar nu destul încât sa lupți pentru ca ei sa aibă acces la servicii de sănătate, educație, transport s.a.m.d. Nu e nici ilogic, nici irațional, si esti de stânga social dar de dreapta economic. P.S. lucrează la formatare ca a trebuit sa citesc de 10 ori ca sa stiu de ce sa te pizdui si tot nu sunt sigur.

Mai mult, e si un fail major de silogism simplu din cauza premisei ca ar fi cumva prrmisibil sa fie discriminati in legislatia curenta. 2 nu e logic sa vrei salariu mai mare, asta e un rationament. Nu exista un traseu logic pentru a iti fi mai bine pentru ca binele este o judecata de valoare. Altora poate le este mai bine in spitale mai ok, pentru altii mai bine inseamna sa aiba copii o scoala ok etc. 3 asta e ddfapt singura operatie logica, dar e bazata pe un proces de rationament. Nu mai confunda logica cu rationamentul. Loca este obiectiva, indisputabila. Rationamentul e mixt, are componente subiective, poate tine cont de etica si e foarte foarte deschis la a fi contestat.

Right wing politics has nothing to do with family and christianity. the "right wing" you see is just exploiting whatever they can to win votes.

Even more, they want the NATIONALISATION of companies, which is a COMMUNIST thing ( far left ) - horrible for business. Simion's "35k euro houses" is literally the same shit you see at blue haired communist feminist movements about "housing for all". Even more, if you want to be fully traditional, you should acknowledge that Romania is a secular country ( and has been for centuries ) and christianity is not a ground for political leadership/movements. sorry for ruining your dreams. you're not a right winger...

Also a considerabile amount of people that vote for the parties currently in power are dead. Literally dead. They are votes stolen by the parties in power from people who are deceased but not taken out of the voting lists. The "system" is corrupt to it's core. Most people on Reddit think last year's elections were cancelled due to russian interferences, but there is no proof of that. (The secret services says it exists, but they won't give it to the media) What proof the national anti-fraud agency actually found exposed one of the ruling parties (PNL) as the culprit for the tik-tok campaign. (which was blamed on Russia by the state media) I believe the vote was cancelled because it's the first time 2 opposition candidates went to the 2nd round (this has never happened in the history of romanian democracy), but the "educated" people of romanian reddit will tell you i'm a Russian lover...

I have looked into it, and you can clearly see that the campaign you're referencing is from 2021 and has been removed from most social media platforms at that time. There is absolutely no link between it and the romanian presidential elections of 2024. All the news sources only link it to Georgescu because he posted an anti-vax video at that time, but again, this was almost 4 years before he would even run for office. There is again no evidence to link Georgescu to that campaign or company. And let's be real for a second here, it's been half a year and the man is free to walk. If he was guilty of any of this we wouldn't be talking about him now. He would be in jail. They arrested a guy for donating to tik-tok lives (Bogdan Peșchir) and didn't find any evidence to prosecute him with. He is also free to walk at this time, but choses not to. (probably because he wants to sue the Romanian state after the elections) You really think they would leave Georgescu alone if he was actually linked to a Russian misinformation campaign?

Based on the latest polling data ahead of Romania’s presidential election on Sunday, May 4, 2025, the two candidates most likely to advance to the May 18 runoff are: 1- Simion : Leader of the far-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians (AUR), currently leading in the polls with approximately 30.2% support. His platform emphasizes nationalism, skepticism toward the European Union, and opposition to military aid for Ukraine. 2- Antonescu : Former acting president and long-time political figure, backed by the Romania Forward Electoral Alliance (A.Ro), which includes the Social Democratic Party (PSD), the National Liberal Party (PNL), and the Democratic Union of Hungarians in Romania (UDMR). Recent polls place him at around 24.3% support. Close behind is Nicușor Dan, the current mayor of Bucharest, running as an independent with support from several centrist and reformist parties. He is polling at approximately 22.4%. While Dan has strong urban support and is a viable contender, current data suggest Antonescu is slightly more likely to secure the second runoff spot. Aren’t Romanians tired of PSD and PNL already? Come on give new, honest faces a chance!

as a romanian, i have absolutely no idea. the polls (which you can’t really trust anyway) tell us that it’s pretty much a tie between the three blue guys (around 20%) and the yellow guy is supposedly at over 30%. this suggests most of calin georgescu’s voters (the eliminated candidate that almost won last year) would go to george simion (yellow guy). we are not sure that is going to happen, maybe some would not vote, some might go with other ones. So I would say it’s anyone game right now. We don’t even know who wins against who in the round 2, so i feel i can’t predict anything which bothers me cause i like to know stuff, but it makes it more exciting (except for the fact that it’s about the faith of the country)

Really tense elections, feels like the political instability of the 2000s, which makes sense because two of these guys are from that era and should have stayed there. Top left: wannabe dictator cunt that even the crazy shaman wouldnt endorse Top right: political corpse that tries to leech onto MAGA in spite of that any rational in this country has not forgotten his career as prime minister Bottom left: mayor of Bucharest, sort of an independet that has everyone bending over backwards for him. I don't like him but well, I'm not voting. Seems like a lesser mimicry of "meritocratic" leaders common in the Baltics or Sandu in Md but works with the establishment at the same time. Socially right wing, Pro Europe, pro NATO. Bottom right: your grandmama's politician from 2009 that was an upset. Maybe Romania would be a different space if Antonescu got into the final round against Basescu or even won, but he didn't. Old dog that probably would make a decent prime minister to be honest (again, not my country just love opinions) but absolutely not a face for the future in any kind. NOT PICTURED: woman from last election has a crazy hate boner with the mayor of Bucharest over party politics, as any centre right wingers in Romania would. If Nicusor Dan does not win and return to USR they are dead dead, which would be bad for the political ecosystem with alt rightism being so on the right and parties like PSD wanting to tip more right to appease these voters. Overall, as a Moldovan very worried about Romanians and keeping my fingers crossed that they elect someone that will not utterly destroy the system. Last election (and also, Basescu 2) proved the system is very fragile and would struggle with removing a parasitic leader. It's down to Romanians rn to show up and vote for their future.

Top left wins the 1st round by far, there might not even be a 2nd round. Is overwhelmingly popular among young people, diaspora, the 30-50 bracket and rural/small urban population and their electorate is enraged by the previous round of elections being canceled. Top right's electorate has been all but lost to top left. Has some support from old people but that's it Bottom right's electorate has been all but lost to bottom left; and their party was utterly decimated in the cancelled round of elections. He has some support from the dwindling class of centrists but that's about it Bottom left's candidate is Reddit's favourite but highly unpopular nationwide. He is theoretically independent but overtly supported by a party that has had 2 schisms in the past 6 months(even before the schisms being an unpopular party) Invisible candidate is Elena Lasconi who lost favour with her party despite being more viable to the general public than the alternative(bottom left) If there is a second round top left dude wins it again. The mainstream cannot make a coalition powerful enough to oppose it unless they rally around bottom right and the (now sidelined) Elena Lasconi(and even then it's debatable how many chances they would have)

Top right will get massive support from a good part of the country's elders (the most viewed tv news channel is aggresively shilling for this guy because he's besties with the owner of this channel, who's among Europool's 'most wanted' due to several high-profile corruption cases and is currently living in Serbia lmao) as well as some of Calin Georgescu's former supporters. Bottom left is majorly preferred by reddit, the upper middle class and the educated part of the population/diaspora in general. He's the only choice that doesn't 100% guarantee a horrible scenario for this country's future. Bottom right is the establishment's man, a guy who came back on the public stage out of nowhere after living off his wife for 10 years in Belgium lol.

Everyone is saying that these elections in Romania aren't important and that they will get cancelled again. Guy, Romania just lost the chance to travel visa free to USA for business and tourism yesterday because of these damn elections. We lost so much built trust in press, in freedom, in democracy because we stood up for transparency and democratic values. (Say what you will about Freedoms and choices. When the canceled elections happened, the frontrunner? No one who wasn't on TikTok knew that guy. He was shaddy as F and had very strong ties to Russia) These elections were also very influenece by Russia, too. With hackers and clone sites spreading missinformation. These elections are going to pass whether the winner is the European candidate ( Bottom left ), the Old System's candidate ( Bottom Right ), the New System's candidate ( Top Right ) or the Populist Anti-European Candidate ( Top Left ). Buy whoever wins will have a heck of a long time picking up the pieces after these elections. Not everyone is going to be happy. And God knows what comes after. But take these elections as an example of what to expect from elections from now on. There is something very wrong when the new generation like Simion (top left) likely tje youngest of the candidates is more populist than the old generation. If your new generation is more extremist then the last, then the political direction of the West is not going in the right direction.

Nicusor Dan (Bottom-Left) is the only "good" canidate, imo, not corrupt, competent, very intelligent, but lacks charisma, and is not good at communicating.

Victor Ponta (Upper-Right) a very good liar, he would be the embodiment of a snake, also part of the old guard, more corrupt than Antonescu, opportunistic, declared Trumpist, as he had met with Donald Trump, also buddy buddy with Eric Trump. George Simion (Upper-Left) my least favourite of the four, very right wing, if not far-right, a chameleon, he will do anything to gain votes, if that requires to support Calin Georgescu (the guy who won the first round, last year, but the elections got cancelled and he got banned from running now, actual pro-Russia, far-right), so be it, if that requires to ferment hate towards minorities, so be it, if that requires to do calls for violence, so be it, he has no morals.
