In the progressive system of government, the one above you beats you, but that is why it gives you the right to beat those below you. It is about a "sado-masochistic type of authoritarian personality", says sociologist Ivan Živkov for "Vreme".

Certainly not all progressives are enthusiastic about Šapić, but we will see if there really are "rat canals" and who is their architect.

The practice of erecting fences everywhere, with or without a plan and project, including places that are not justified from the point of view of the profession, has countries where neither education nor traffic culture is developed, and urbanization has developed rapidly in recent years or decades.
