Do you think the scientific theory of evolution is well supported by evidence and widely accepted within the scientific community, or that it is not well supported by evidence and many scientists have serious doubts about it?
40.3 % said evolution was not well supported by evidence; 20.9% did not know. Only 38.8% could respond accurately concerning the standing of evolution within the scientific arena.
Fuck.

This is a nice updates news list: https://www.g4media.ro/breaking-biroul-electoral-central-a-respins-candidatura-lui-calin-georgescu.html if you can use a translation tool.
I don’t trust the polls much here, the polling agencies are famously partizan and unreliable over time.
He has until the 15th to re-submit the papers for candidacy.
What’s going to happen with the cereals exports? That caused some drama in 2022-2023, and crime: here’s a recent investigation from Romania (use auto-translate) https://www.riseproject.ro/investigations/uncategorized/cerealele-negre-din-ucraina-frauda-si-marii-beneficiari-din-romania/
The court ruling also highlights the role of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, which repeatedly tried to block the expansion of the complaint. The Cybercrime Prosecutor had opposed the extension of the complaint, despite the PEGA Committee and PACE (Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe) had emphasised the need for an in-depth investigation into these cases of espionage using Pegasus.
The court states that the attitude of both the investigating judge and the prosecutor in refusing to allow the extension of the complaint was “inconsistent with the current state of the proceedings” and that “it seems entirely logical to extend the indictment to the individuals who have been identified as being behind the decisions taken by these [companies].” This attitude on the part of the Public Prosecutor’s Office adds to the silence and lack of cooperation on the part of the Spanish state in this case.
Yeah, wtf?

So Christians vs Christians, got it.
What religion were the fascists?
Mafia translates to incompetence as nepotism, “higher orders”, and quid pro quo take precedence over competence.
The strategy focuses on advanced technologies, including Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), microreactors, and fourth-generation fission technology. The plan also includes investments in nuclear fusion, reflecting a long-term commitment to sustainable energy development.
Of course, the most hyped up tech producing the most expensive electricity in the current set of electricity generation. \
We are looking at fusion
You can tell that they’re grifters with that simple statement. Nuclear fusion for electricity supply isn’t coming in the short term, we just have this cycle of hype that “in a few years it will here! We promise this time!”
Small reactors don’t add up as a viable energy source
Energy researchers say SMR promises don’t match reality • The Register
The “nuclear will save us” discourse reminds me of Ilan Shor, the dude who stole a hefty chunk of Moldova’s money. From his website:
https://web.archive.org/web/20221227002442/https://partidulsor.md/ the 4th item in the vertical list:
23122022 Ilan Șor: Vom construi centrale nucleare cu reactoare modulare mici, care vor permite asigurarea independenței energetice a Republicii Moldova
same “we’ll use SMRs for energy independence”
It can be tied, at least, to discourse about policies, to “campaign promises”.
