The first part of the Thumbs-up, Thumbs-down session of the podcast On the Barricades offers an amazing set of failures that were generated in Romania and presented by Maria Cernat. Among them: the plagiarism of the Prime Minister, the one million mistakenly supercharged electricity bills and the constant prioritization of military acquisition from the US to the detriment of social services budgets for Romanians.
Yuri Smouter and Boyan Stanislavski have their comment on those stories. And at the end, a look to the cultural faulting between large segments of Romanian society and liberal LGBT agenda is discussed without condemnation or moral superiority. Apparently, the region and its people are in need of language, issues and thinking that allow them to be part of the world. This is what On the Barricades tries to do.
Romanian politics is art of going from failure to failure while not seeming to be disturbed
