The poor of Europe: In Romania, 40% of the population lives in poverty. Romanians borrow from relatives and friends to make due

Let me give it to you straight:
The age of retirement in Romania is 65 for men and 60 for women. Life expectancy if 71.4 for men and 78.8 for women. Let that sink in. Men have 6.4 years while women have 18.8 or retirement...

Countries where this obvious case of sexism exists: Romania(65/60(, Poland(65/60)Austria(65/60) Bulgaria (64/61) Czech republic ( 62 8 months/ 58-62, depending on children) Lithuania ( 63/61)

Western Europeans fight for abstract concepts like freedom, you fight oppression and poverty...however when a clear case of sexism stares you in the face, you don't care. Slowly my country is becoming more western, LGBT right, immigration,racism and so on are becoming things worth discussing.

Sure, these issues need to be discussed...however to me you guys seem like a bunch of sophists. All these clever arguments and talk talk talk while you ignore the most obvious things in front of you. You only care about things the media and society tells you to, and not only that, but your way of "caring" and "improving the world" is just so fake and juvenile. It was probably invented by some marketing firm somewhere. I almost never comment here because most commenters honestly make me puke. All the same talking points reiterated over and over again with no flexibility and good will behind them ...

It's quite depressing what has happened to Europe and western civilization really... At least most of you feel good enough about yourselves, so I guess that's all that matters in the end.
