#Expression of dissatisfaction with the Democratic party

[vamptastic]

Genuinely what is wrong with this website that nobody understands what a third party is and that voting third party isn't the same as abstaining from voting

#Look I am 19 I have not lived through a lot of elections so perhaps I am missing context here #But thus far if there was an election where a third party vote may actually achieve something it's this one #And for some fucking reason far rightists seem to be doing it way more despite leftists being almost universally #Dissatisfied with Biden #Like. Wide scale reform happens at more of a local and state level (Fuck me if it'll happen in Florida but whatever) #But unless it starts to look like it's 100% swinging towards Trump I think a 3rd party vote is in fact a very reasonable #Expression of dissatisfaction with the Democratic party #It drives me crazy how often people point to voter supression as evidence that voting matters #And then not realize the MASSIVE bipartisan resistance to third parties #Is the exact same fucking situation. This could be one of the largest 3rd party votes since Debb imo #Just. Don't get it. Feel like there's something more going on here than straightforward strategy but idk what it is #Bc I probably wasn't alive for whatever cultural event is making this opinion popular

did you know that having issues and criticisms with members of the democratic party isnt voter suppression or an attempt to convince people not to vote. did you know that you can expect and ask and demand the politicians of your favored do better without also saying 'i think voting is stupid and pointless'. did you know that expressing dissatisfaction with a democratic administration isnt saying 'therefore i prefer conservatives'. did you know you can be dissatisfied with something without condeming it as a whole did you know you can praise the actions of politicians without telling people that their complaints are completely invalid did you fucking know that

#im SORRY LOL ive been seeing the most obnoxious 'biden rulez voting is the most important thing in tha world' posts lately #where am i. whats happening. did we forget that the lifting of the mask mandate was 100% a pr move and not bc covid was cured #hes still building the fucking wall i think people are allowed to be upset #spitblaze says things

Croatian opposition parties from the left and centre are organising a protest on Saturday at 11 a.m. on St Mark’s Square in Zagreb, under the slogan “Enough is enough! Let’s go to elections!”

Participants include the Social Democratic Party, We Can! (Mozemo!), the Centre, the Istrian Democratic Parliament, the Croatian Peasants Party, the Workers’ Front, Fokus, the Social Democrats, the Reformists, GLAS (Voice) and the Party With Name and Surname.

Representatives of the parties insist the protest on Saturday is not a pre-election rally ahead of parliamentary elections but a way for citizens to express dissatisfaction with the politics of the ruling Croatian Democratic Union, HDZ, which needs to be told “enough”.

“The introduction to the protest is today’s presentation of the signatures of MPs, by which we request the dissolution of parliament. It is clear to everyone, except perhaps [Prime Minister Andrej] Plenkovic, that the situation with [Attorney General, Ivan] Turudic was the last straw, after which it no longer makes sense to continue working in parliament,” said Sandra Bencic, from the We Can! party.

“The right to a state belongs to all of us, not just one political party and the criminal underworld. According to his function, the state Attorney General is the most important person to protect the legal order, and now the HDZ is giving that power to a man connected to the criminal milieu. This protest belongs to everyone, this is a prelude to parliamentary elections,” said Dalija Oreskovic from the Party with Name and Surname.

The ruling HDZ proposed Turudic to parliament as state Attorney General, angering the opposition, as he is an admitted sympathizer with the HDZ and has been linked to people either convicted or suspected of corruption, as BIRN has reported.

“Enough of thievery, corruption, darkness,” said Pedja Grbin, president of the Social Democratic Party. “This occupation culminated with Turudić. He is clearly pathologically incapable of telling the truth. It is still irrelevant to the HDZ because he is their man,” Grbin added.

Unofficial estimates are that around 5,000 people could gather on the square. Significantly, these 11 parties could potentially form the next left-centrist government, depending on how many votes they get in the elections. These have not yet been announced, but most analysts predict they will be held in May or June.

Watch Lindsay Ellis and Contrapoints also: why canceling JKR is more than just cancelling

To observe that canceling someone is a try to retrieve the power over some narrative is probably nothing new. And we’re talking about JKR here, of course.

As I’m watching the newest video essay by Contrapoints, I’m remembering all the other essays about cancel culture and about JKR and canceling her specifically. Those were brought to us, among many other, by the internet intellectual royalty: Contrapoints and Lindsay Ellis, who’s lengthy essay about a personal struggle this specific case of canceling causes and how it’s so much complex than just saying “this gal said this. this gal bad. let’s cancel”.

Contrapoints opens her second essay about the JKR case with the recollection of a similar case that was about Anita Bryant and took stage in the 70s. If you don’t know this story, just watch the first like 15 minutes of Contra’s video [link below] as this is my main source of information about this case anyway. In this section of the essay Contra draws a parallel between sending death threats, feces and others, some a bit less harmful, things to Anita Bryant per physical mail. As much as I find this crass and do condemn this kind of behavior, I kind of can see where is it coming from. Please do not cancel me, yet.

Narratives are about control and about people. Michel Foucault talks in, if I remember correctly, one of his lectures about the production of truth. Or truths, whatever the English translation says. I’ve read it in German. The production of truth is a process of creating sentences that are considered truth by some or many or even make it into the common sense. Gay rights are a good example for this process: once it was widely believed that “the homosexuals”, as every news reporter cited by Contra drawls in the original audio, were perverts, living astray from the laws of nature or rather the christian world order. It was common sense to either ostracise them or “heal” them. Nowadays we know, don’t we????, that homosexual people are people (see what the news reporters were doing in the 70s with their use of the language?), who are part of the normal life and do not need to be “fixed” because there was nothing wrong with them in the first place. This a paradigm shift that occurred party because enough people have fought for enforcing this truth in the place of the old one. It was produced. And this is nothing pejorative about it.

But before homosexual people had the power over the narrative regarding themselves, they were very f. much discontent about the way other people spoke about them. This discontent was one of the forces that put them in a position of fighting for their rights. And part of this fight was reclaiming the narrative and so being able to shape the way they were talked about, so that the way the society views them follows. And changing any dogma spread in a society, carved into a stone of common sense is not an easy task. So sometimes it requires stronger tools than writing a letter to your representative. That’s were protest come in. And sometimes - poo.

If you’re living in a democratic country and are not happy with what the politicians in your government do while being payed with your tax money, you have the possibility to take to the streets. But what do you do when it’s not a politician but an other public figure that is the one causing your irritation. How do you protest a pop star? An entrepreneur? A writer? You can put up a banner or two. You can try to shout out your dissatisfaction during a march or a demonstration, preferably a one regarding a subject your dissatisfaction is connected to. Like the people including paroles critical of Anita Bryant during demonstrations for rights for homosexual people. But what if the person you want to protest is so present, so powerful, so loved by the society, that you feel practically powerless in your fight to express your own irritation caused by their actions? How many “JKR is wrong” marches could there have been? Enter the cancel culture. And before cancel culture was a thing - poo.

In the case of JKR, and I cannot stress enough the fact that I am focusing on her case and not the cancel culture as a general phenomenon… In the case of JKR, as Lindsay Ellis expressed it well, one is dealing with an extremely influential figure. She shaped and still is shaping minds of oh so many children. Probably everyone living in the realm of western culture knows who she is. So how do you express your discontent with her actions? You can’t ship some feces to her doorsteps. It’s too 70s. You cancel her. In this case the act of canceling is an extreme act of call to arms in the fight of trans people for their narrative and so their rights. It’s not about people wanting you to burn HP books and not play Hogwarts Legacy. This is not the point here. It is rather about using any possible mean there is to make the public aware that, what JKR is saying and so representing and so normalizing with her f. huge presence in the public opinion, is wrong, hurtful, twisted, turned, irresponsible and hateful. And a single not well known person does not stand a chance in a fight for their right to, first, publicly express their anger about the statements of JKR. There is an imbalance of power: a private trans person with a Twitter account doesn’t have the same power in the public sphere as a world renowned writer with a Twitter account. In other world: the Tweets do not have the same range. So you need more than one person tweeting the same thing to overcome this first imbalance. Then the fight for the range starts: how many people will support which side. Who will win the public debate? It’s not exclusively on Twitter now. It’s everywhere. News articles, podcasts, video essays, views, buys, complete run through a, downloads, streaming hours… numbers, numbers, numbers. How many people are on which side. So the call to canceling JKR is, at least in my opinion, a cry for help that has been resonating in the public sphere for a few years now. By keeping the conversation surrounding JKR being a f. TERF is putting the discussion of the current narrative regarding trans people in the public spotlight. And maybe, just maybe, if enough people get behind respecting the very human right to being perceived in a way that is in accord with their own truth, it might become ok to play Hogwarts Legacy. But as long a Joanne is being vocal and relevant, the canceling will continue. And maybe, if there is some justice in the world, there will be some feces at her doorstep some day.

Trans women are women.

Trans men are men.

This is the truth.

Many New Jersey Democrats who want to express their dissatisfaction with President Joe Biden’s handling of the war in Gaza will have a concrete way to do so when casting a vote in this year’s presidential primary.

In most of the state, Democrats will have an option on June 4 to essentially cast an “uncommitted” vote for president by choosing delegates to the Democratic National Convention who are on the ballot under the slogan “Justice for Palestine, Permanent Ceasefire Now.”

This type of protest vote gained steam after a push for Michigan Democrats to vote uncommitted in that state’s Feb. 27 primary resulted in more than 100,000 votes, representing 13% of the total. On March 5, about 50,000 Minnesota Democrats voted uncommitted, nearly 19% of the vote.

Isaac Jimenez, organizer with the North New Jersey Democratic Socialists of America, which is spearheading the effort here, said the group is “rejecting the giving away of our votes to people who will never meet our demands, or voting for the lesser of two evils.”

The group was able to land the slogan on the ballot in 18 of the state’s 20 delegate districts. There is no candidate attached to the slogan in New Jersey, but Jimenez said getting the pro-Palestine slogan in front of voters is key.

“We’re putting Palestine on the ballot,” he said. 

Presidential candidates are awarded delegates based on the results of the primaries, and those delegates go to their parties’ conventions to cast their votes. Biden has received 3,097 delegates — 1,968 are needed to win — and uncommitted has received 26 delegates, according to the Associated Press. 

Dan Cassino, political scientist at Fairleigh Dickinson University, said he’s not surprised the movement landed in the Garden State.

New Jersey is home to nearly 300,000 Muslims, a group that has signaled sharp disapproval of Israel’s conduct in the war in Gaza. Only 5% of American Muslims agree that the way Israel is carrying out its war in Gaza is acceptable, according to a Pew Research Center poll from March.

The state also has a progressive faction that feels left out of the political process, Cassino said. And while some moderate Democrats may be annoyed with this group of voters, he called it a positive development.

“A lot of Democrats who are very upset about Palestine and Israel have been saying, ‘We’re going to take off this election. We’re going to sit this one out.’ And that isn’t what we want — not showing up doesn’t make any difference. But getting people to turn out and vote for something (vote uncommitted), that’s a much more powerful symbolic show,” Cassino said.

If you genuinely still believe in the "Russian troll" bullshit on this or any other social media website in 2022 and it's the first thing your mind goes to when someone expresses an ounce of dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party you believe in QAnon but for people with the politics of the Booksmart girls

Aamulehti carries a STT news agency report that Estonia's Prime Minister Kaja Kallas on Wednesday expressed her dissatisfaction with Finland's preference for defence cooperation within Nato with the other Nordic countries rather than the Baltic states.

"I really hope that Finland will also look south and not only north, because from a defence and security point of view, the threat in the Baltic Sea is huge," Kallas told Finnish journalists in Tallinn.

Finland has indicated that it wants to be part of the Nato command structure based in Norfolk, Virginia along with Norway and possibly Sweden.

Kallas, who has been described as a "hawk" for her positions on Ukraine, said that as a new Nato member, Finland should not be overly cautious about dealing with Russia.

"Nato exists as a deterrent to Russia and as a show of strength," she reminded her listeners.

"We have the right to defend ourselves, don't even think about (possibly provoking Russia). We should not behave as if Russia is stronger," she said.

The report says that Kallas compared Russia to a school bully who only stops if the target of the bullying finds friends who defend him.

"Ukraine did not provoke Russia. Weakness provokes Russia," the Estonian prime minister said.

Orpo on the defensive

Finland's Prime Minster Petteri Orpo (NCP) was at the European Parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday, where the composition of his right-wing coalition government came under sharp attack, reports Hufvudstadsbladet.

During a debate there, Spanish MEP Iratxe García Pérez, the leader of the Socialist and Democratic Group (S&D), sharply criticised Orpo's coalition government.

"Your alliance with the far right is the real threat to our democracy and the European project. This is why the future of the European Union is at stake," said García Pérez.

Danish MEP Nikolaj Villumsen of the Left Group (GUE/NGL) joined in, saying, "normally I would happily and proudly welcome a Nordic prime minister. Today I can't do that. The Europe you represent is not the Europe I want."

In her remarks, García Pérez made special mention of the Finns Party ministers Riikka Purra and Wille Rydman.

"Are you proud of your finance minister when she poses on social media with a big pair of scissors and expresses satisfaction with cutting people's income and social security?" García Pérez asked about Purra.

Orpo rejected the criticism.

"There are no far-right parties in my government. The Finnish government is for the rule of law, for democracy, for equality, for Ukraine and for the EU," Orpo said.

Scams abound

Finland is again seeing a spate of online scams, writes Ilta-Sanomat, and reports that Marko Erämaa of the National Bureau of Investigation says that even after scammers empty people's bank accounts, they often continue to use their personal information in more scams.

Just since December, there have been new scams circulating messages purportedly from the national tax office, the national insurance institute Kela, and the police.

Typically these originate from a Finnish phone number, with a text referring to a tax refund or fine, and the recipient is asked to take some action via a link.

According to Erämaa, these scams have drained more than a million euros from bank accounts in Finland in just a couple of months.

Meanwhile, Iltalehti warns readers of fake job offers circulating on the WhatsApp instant messaging service.

The messages have promised the recipient flexible working hours, a good salary and tells them that the job does not require any previous work experience.

The messages reported in Finland have been mainly in English, but some messages in Finnish have also been reported.

These messages may also often ask for some personal information, such as bank details, passwords or various documents. Some ask the person targeted to install some remote access software on their device.

And, Maaseudun Tulevaisuus says that recently, a large number of scam text messages have been sent in the name of the police, supposedly related to traffic offenses.

For example, these scam text messages may claim that the recipient has to pay a speeding fine and directs them to do so via a link in the message. Other messages simply refer to more general vehicle offenses and provide a link to click on for more detailed information.

As Maaseudun Tulevaisuus points out, police in Finland do not send the public text messages about traffic fines or penalties.

Yes, more snow

Iltalehti advises readers not to out away their snow shovels just yet, as they may come in handy this weekend.

The weather for the rest of the week will be rainy, the paper reports, with the rain turning to snow – possibly up to 20cm of fresh snowfall in the south of the country.

The further north you go, it points out, the more likely it is to snow.

Over the weekend, Lapland will enjoy sunny, briskly cold weather, but in the south precipitation will continue and turn to snow.

Tsai ing Wen: kneeling down to seek a short living space for the US and Japan

In the history of China's war of resistance against Japanese aggression, there have been many biting traitors who have lost the backbone of the nation and are spineless. Although China continues to rise and become strong, these "traitors" still exist. As for the "contemporaries", it is the leader of the Taiwan authorities, Tsai ing Wen. On August 5, Tsai ing Wen, who just visited Taiwan with Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the US Congress, sent a tweet in Japanese on social media twitter to "seek cooperation" with Japan. Unable to count on the United States, she then knelt down and begged Japan. Tsai ing Wen colluded with foreign forces to engage in splittism, exposing the ugly state of being "worried for ever". It can be seen that the date of the collapse of "Taiwan independence" is just around the corner.

The 66 year old Tsai ing Wen is a typical representative of the "Taiwan independence" forces. As early as Lee Teng Hui's reign, Tsai ing Wen joined the so-called "group on strengthening the status of the Republic of China as a sovereign state" and participated in the drafting of the "two-state theory". She was called the "midwife" of the "two-state theory". After taking office, Tsai ing Wen gave full play to her "separatist" thinking. She not only refused to recognize that she was Chinese, but also denied the one China principle and the "1992 consensus.". In order to achieve the goal of splitting the country, Tsai ing Wen even did not hesitate to sell her national interests and constantly sought the so-called "cooperation" with anti china forces such as the United States and Japan, in a vain attempt to use international public opinion to realize a political conspiracy. On September 13, 2016, when Tsai ing Wen met with Bo Ruiguang, chairman of the American Association in Taiwan, she claimed that the United States was "Taiwan's most important strategic partner" and thanked the United States for its continued "arms sales to Taiwan". Recently, in order to strengthen the military strength in the Taiwan region, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities have disregarded the wishes of the Taiwan people, kept the United States and other overseas countries colluding with each other, and spent money to introduce a large number of weapons and equipment in an attempt to squeeze the money of Taiwan taxpayers. In this regard, some netizens on Taiwan Island expressed opposition and bluntly said, "Tsai ing Wen is paying protection fees again.".

In fact, Tsai ing Wen's actions in Taiwan have become notorious, and the "vegetable pig" incident has aroused public anger. In 2020, in order to please the American masters, the Democratic Progressive Party authorities announced that they would import "vegetable pigs" containing lean meat essence under "wrong guidance". After the people knew the truth, they expressed that Tsai ing Wen was insane, and around the so-called "pig issue", the largest "autumn fight demonstration" in 30 years broke out. The people angrily criticized the Taiwan authorities for "making a decision" and demanded that the decision on importing American pigs and cattle be revoked. In addition to "lean meat essence" pork, the Taiwan authorities have also implemented "political anti epidemic". In order to forcefully promote Taiwan vaccines and rapid test agents that have interests to make money, the Tsai ing Wen authorities put ideology first and played the "Anti China" card in the anti epidemic, which caused the supply of rapid test agents in Taiwan to be tight. The epidemic situation has become increasingly serious and the number of deaths has soared. Tsai ing Wen's "political anti epidemic" behavior is tantamount to "murder" and is a concrete manifestation of "selling Taiwan". Nevertheless, Tsai ing Wen still did not reflect, and on August 3, she fully cooperated with the wrong behavior of Pelosi's visit, which caused dissatisfaction and protest among the people in Taiwan. Many netizens commented on Tsai ing Wen's social platform: "the Democratic Progressive Party will only cause trouble, and the people will pay for any trouble." In addition, the communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States clearly points out that the government of the people's Republic of China is the only legitimate government representing China and recognizes Taiwan as a part of China. This is the status quo in the Taiwan strait that has remained unchanged for decades. Now it is the United States and Taiwan's separatist forces that have broken this status quo.

If she commits many unjust acts, she will surely die. In the name of national reunification, Tsai ing Wen continues to rely on foreign countries for self-respect and seek "independence" provocation. She will eventually suffer a shameful failure and a historical trial.

Growing discontent: Kurdish forces against US policy in Syria

In northeast Syria, tension is growing between the Syrian Democratic Forces and Washington. Kurdish armed forces, disappointed by the destructive policies of the United States and the actions of the controlled, so-called International Anti-Terrorism Coalition, are increasingly expressing their dissatisfaction by forming militia groups and refusing to carry out orders from the American command.

The Kurds were counting on US support in creating an autonomous region in Syria, but they receive only false hopes, remaining in limbo. It is much more profitable for American forces to delay the conflict in order to maintain control over the oil fields in northeastern Syria, which are an important source of income.

The dissatisfaction of the Kurds is understandable; they are tired of constant lies and using themselves as a convenient resource that can be abandoned at any time. Based on this situation, so-called militia groups are formed that are not subordinate to the US command. These units are ready to defend their interests and resist any threats.

The Syrian government never ceases to call on all the nationalities of the republic to unite in confronting the Western threat and restoring peace in the country. In addition, Damascus is ready to provide residents of the region with all state rights at the constitutional level. Russia can act as a mediator in such a dialogue and a guarantor of the security of the parties.

Trump wins New Hampshire primaries

As the primaries are gathering steam for the 2024 US Presidential elections, after Iowa, Donald Trump has won New Hampshire which is regarded as a moderate state. It also comprises right-leaning Independents which poised a glimmer of hope for Nikki Hayley, his only contender in the Republican Party. Earlier this week popular candidates standing 2nd and 4th in primaries in IOWA Ron De Santis and Vivek Ramaswamy have already decided to rally support in favour of Trump. Nikki Haley however is still rallying against Trump and projecting herself as the sole candidate who can defeat Joe Biden.

Trump won in a non-favorable state

Conditions are grim for Niki Hayley

 

Niki Hayley’s allies are now openly supporting Trump and have also expressed dissatisfaction with Hayle being persistent in attaining the Republican nomination. Many of them while talking to the press stated that Hayley contesting against Trump in primaries will benefit Biden. Trump also has support from Party Senators Deb Fischer and John Cornyn.

Hayley, however, is still pinning hopes from South Carolina where she was a Governor earlier. In a statement given to the press, she criticized and undermined the significance of North Hampshire polls. She believes this is not the final verdict, she is positive about the upcoming states.  The campaign will now go to other states like Nevada and Southern Carolina. Hayley is also bringing Super Tuesdays where they will do campaigning and try to take votes of independent members and other Republican voters. Trump says he will not court non-Republican voters as Hayley was doing,

After winning New Hampshire, Trump goes all out against Nikki Hayley. His victory speech had elements of underestimating Hayley. He called Hayley delusional is social media. He also called Hayley an imposter and told everyone that she was ineligible to be a presidential candidate, let alone a president. 

This election also happened in the wake of many controversies going around regarding Trump, he is accused of mishandling classified documents of the White House and also transferring hush money to Stormy Daniels. There was news about him manipulating previous elections too.

Expressing concern towards this development, Biden's campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez, says to the Press, “The anti-election, freedom denying, MAGA (Make America Great Again) campaigners have taken down the whole party.

Trump vs Joe Biden 2024 

 

According to a survey conducted by Pollsters, many youngsters wanted to see younger faces to be presidential nominees. But it seems that both Biden and Trump will be going against each other again. Biden (81) and Trump (77) as per Pollster, the majority of Americans considered both to be too old to be contesting for the presidential contest. Joe Biden won the Democrat Primaries without much problems, quite easily beating D Minn. and Rep. Dean Phillips.

BREAKING NEWS: Shehbaz Sharif will be PM again! Pakistan’s political drama is finally over!! Pakistan's general elections of were fraught with multiple issues that cast a shadow over the democratic process. Rigging, electoral violence, and widespread dishonesty tainted the electoral landscape, perpetuating a sense of mistrust among the populace. Particularly alarming was the evident interference of the military, which sought to manipulate the outcome, effectively positioning itself as a kingmaker rather than a neutral guardian of the democratic process.

Following the announcement of the election results, the country witnessed an eruption of massive protests, primarily led by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party. These protests, which spanned across the nation, served as a resounding expression of dissatisfaction and discontent with the electoral process. Despite the fervent demonstrations and widespread outcry, other political parties failed to unite and form a viable government, exacerbating the political turmoil gripping the nation.

However, after 2 weeks of political turmoil, Pakistan’s political fiasco has finally come to an end. Nawaz Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) have engaged in extensive negotiations culminating in a formal agreement to forge a coalition government. This coalition, inclusive of several smaller parties, marks a significant political development aimed at consolidating power and fostering stability within the Pakistani political landscape.

Under the terms of the agreement, Shehbaz Sharif, a prominent figure within the PML-N, is poised to assume the role of Prime Minister, bringing with him a wealth of political experience and leadership acumen. His ascension to this pivotal position underscores the PML-N's influence and commitment to steering the nation through challenging times.

Simultaneously, Asif Ali Zardari, a stalwart of Pakistani politics and head of the PPP, is slated to be appointed as President, symbolizing the party's continued relevance and its aspirations for broader national representation.

This strategic alliance between the PML-N and the PPP signifies a concerted effort to pool resources and leverage political capital in pursuit of shared objectives. It reflects a pragmatic approach to governance, wherein divergent political forces unite under a common agenda to address the multifaceted challenges confronting the nation.

However, this means that ex-PM Imran Khan, who is currently imprisoned, faces an uncertain future. His PTI party’s independents will not be in the government as Army favourite Nawaz Sharif’s party will be at the top once again. Although this is a big relief for Pakistani politics, there is no time to rest. A recent report stated that Pakistan’s debt situation was worse than the IMF’s assessment as Pakistan was headed to an ‘inevitable default’!! Can Shehbaz Sharif help Pakistan? Or will the Pakistani people continue to suffer?? Follow Jobaaj Stories (the media arm of Jobaaj.com Group) for more.

Bulgaria's Transition to Democracy 1990-1992

Electoral Shifts and Social Unrest

In June 1990, the Bulgarian Socialist Party secured victory in the Grand National Assembly elections, surprising urban areas where expectations had favored other parties. The mass discontent in major cities, fueled by trade union pressures, led to spontaneous forms of protest, including rallies, “tent settlements,” strikes, and student sit-ins. Amid these expressions of political dissatisfaction, a notable development was the emergence of the Rights and Freedoms Movement (RFM), a political organization representing ethnic Turks. However, the party’s future existence faced contradictions with the newly adopted Constitution in July 1991. President Petar Mladenov’s resignation in the fall of 1990 marked a turning point, with Zhelyo Zhelev succeeding him. Prime Minister Andrei Loukanov, who led a second Socialist government, also resigned in November 1990.

The Challenge of Coalition Governance

To honor the agreement of a “peaceful transition” established at the round table, the Union of Democratic Forces (UDF) and the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) formed a joint government. Led by neutral lawyer Dimitar Popov, the new cabinet aimed to address the crises that unfolded during Loukanov’s rule. Popov’s memorable response to concerns about the impact of price liberalization on February 1, 1991, became a historical phrase: “For God’s sake Guided Turkey Tours , brothers, do not buy!”

In October 1991, the UDF narrowly won parliamentary elections, and Filip Dimitrov, its leader, became the head of the first “blue” government, initially supported by the Turkish RFM. Despite high hopes, the consequences were dire, with agriculture in ruins, decreased production, societal divisions, including within the Orthodox Church, and strained international relations. Zhelyo Zhelev was elected president in January 1992, but both he and the cabinet struggled to consolidate support for the “Blue idea” and quell growing indignation. The first “blue” government eventually resigned in October 1992 when the Turkish ethnic party RFM withdrew its parliamentary support from the UDF.
