So right about trams, ridiculous dangerous things that the UK wisely scrapped in the 50s only for green wankers to reintroduce them at taxpayers' expense

I was there at the same time as you - just by train from neighbouring country. There was a small pervert-gathering near the Octagon - but all non-Hungarians, it seemed, and more police than perverts to keep order. Yeah, Budapest is nice and just normal. Just common sense, but common sense is not so common anymore....

The subway is kind of charming - secon oldest in the world after London.

Austria nearby also still may have its merits. I'm a bit of a supporter of Martin Sellner and his circle. You might have some interaction with him:

Off topic, but I wish I'd known you were going to be in Oakland, CA. I live across the Bay in Silicon Valley. You're very brave to go there, and I hope you got out unscathed. Our brilliant VP says she lived there, but she really lived in the wealthy suburb a couple miles away.

Your explanation of how intellectually curious truth seeking inevitably leads to overlap on the Venn diagram with far/alt right people who might use that information for diametrically opposed reasons (my interpretation) was so settling. I felt like I’d clumsily stumbled across you and others like you but that helped me to see more clearly what my intuition has been based on.

A hard lesson I’m learning rather late in the day is that my innate, fundamental need for truth, sometimes at my own expense, is not shared by anything like as many others as I thought. That has been particularly difficult to reconcile in close friendships but also in groups of intellectuals, highly educated and highly credentialled people I’ve known.

Very feminine takes from the cameraman a few times, but otherwise fun content

The video has zero time duration?

If I click on the jolly heretic hyperlink on the email I received re your comment, it takes me to an overview where I click on the post and it shows a 46m long video . If I go to jolly heretic substack under my own steam , the video is zero length and unwatchable , but other videos are fine.

Unless it's just me, yes, it's just a zero length video.
