...part two of romanian stupidity

Although you can't actually quantify the stupidity, and for sure reasons the Romanian one, I feel the urge to continue the last day's post regarding the national presidential elections occurred Sunday. Romanian people had started screwing thing up even since the Aurelian withdrew the roman armies in 267 AD. Sparks of knowledge occasionally emerged to surface, but only to be slaughtered in a matter of days. We seem not to like smart people, and when induced otherwise there surely a scheme of manipulation is involved. We also don't like curious people, and as the English saying "Curiosity killed the cat", we have our own "Curiosul moare repede"... the curious people die quick.
In a political climate salted in history also by military purposes we hide, but we should be known for our ability to sneak and betray. Not only once happened to switch sides, and as for WWI and WWII, a person with a sense of history can easily see this things happen. We shift for what we presume to be the better side, but soon to be cornered and pummeled. And this does not come undeserved.
Coming back to year 2009 and the elections, the Romanians are divided like this. Rough measures but again, I'm not grasping for the exact numbers. 33% people who can vote with an opened mind, 33% people who prefer not to vote due to lazy feeling or lack of hope, and 33% idiots. I am placed in the second category, carefully wrapped in my gone hope and laziness. But when you find out that 1/3rd of your country is idiot, that must give you a heads up. No election option was long time viable, but as some taught me when I was a kid, when you are pinned to choose, and no option is adequate, you must pick the smallest evil. If you fail to see that your country has suffered and been constantly grinded in the last 5 years, you must suck really bad in all domains. I pity your family and your neibourghs, your future generation and the people you come in contact with. We get stupid everyday, but enough is enough. We must finish it once. Look everywhere, look on your paper in the international news section. Look on the internet. No thinking human believes that what happened here, in 6th December is the right thing to do. And all of these choices my own nation makes, just push me over the edge, and give me courage to accept the fact that one day, very soon, I must escape this place. With no remorse, and my rationality still operational.
