      Certainly not Germany and Poland. Gas cucks. I just want affordable heat. Renewables are cheaper, why are policymakers resisting cheap energy, during an energy price crisis?

              Central Europe

              Tell me you’re from Eastern Europe and hate Russia without telling me you’re from Eastern Europe and hate Russia

                  People living in the parts of Europe that were dictatorships until ~35 years ago (everything to the east of Germany, more or less) don’t like their region to be called “Eastern Europe”, even though that is what everyone called it for 50 years. There was Western Europe, and Eastern Europe. But since Eastern is connotated with dictatorships, Russian occupation, poverty and things like that they’ve invented a new term wich is “Central Europe”.

                  So now you’ll hear people from Czechia, Slovakia, Poland, etc refer to their parts of Europe as Central, because they don’t want to be called Eastern, and they especially absolutely do not want to be associated with Russia in any way. Which is completely understandable.

      Perhaps it surprises you but a lot of people are such oil brained corpo shills they cannot fathom not burning the planet down to the ground. They call free energy ideologically driven in an obvious attempt at projection.

      Which is to say that sadly a lot of people would never guess importing fossil fuels just to burn them might be a terrible idea actually.

      Won‘t stop the tidal wave of heat pump installations though because most people actually like saving money.
