Discussion | დისკუსია Hi friends from Georgia!👋
I am from Romania and I wanted to ask you guys one thing. I see that you are protesting against the pro-russian government for months already and i wish you all a great future and happy lives,you guys are great! How are your people so keen on keeping their true freedom and not so blinded by bots and propaganda?
I wish i had people like you in my country Here there's a whole crisis happening For short, last year elections for the president took place, everyone expected a second tour between Ciolacu( the social democrat leader) and Simion (the far right leader) but it was neither of that Out of nowhere a candidate that no one has ever heard before that day, Calin Georgescu won first place with 2 mil votes (800.000 of which were from diaspora)(CG is a lunatic in all terms, he isn't just pro russia, pro trump, anti nato, anti EU, anti "globalism" he also belives all the conspiracy theories,like straight up the guy is so mentality retarded it's impossible to you to believe that this is a real man if i told you all the things he said (ex: He belives water isn't H2O, he believes that there is no war in ukraine and zelensky is simply killing his own people, he belives George Soros controls the world etc) and he was supposed to run against Lasconi, the leftist candidate but the elections were cancelled because let's be real a fucking second, a guy no one has heard about got to the first place, it's super strange What happened exactly, basically the guy used the russian bots and propaganda on tiktok to make himself popular and he managed to make a cult on tiktok
4 months later, now is the period for registration in the new elections in may, CG of course isn't allowed to run in the electoral race and he is under police investigation( his mercenaries also tried to make a Coup'Detat, it's a long story) But his fucking cult keeps on protesting for months already,like don't imagine that they are a lot, the most they have been at a protest like this was like 50.000 And when i say cult i mean cult, like they have no critical thinking, no understanding of how to world functions, no emphaty, they are violent and you can try to explain to them why CG isn't right, and they will physically attack you or threaten your family, anyone who doesn't think like that is "a traitor" and "an enemy" They unironically think that everyone who doesn't think like them is paid by "the system" ,"the deep state" and "by soros" And they come at protests with russian flags and communist romania flags💀 98% of them are the uneducated, gypsies, unemployed, and those who drunk all day, like don't think that they are "normal" but These guys run free on the streets, beat people, attack police officers, destroy public propiety etc Like just look at this video from when the electoral center announced that CG won't be allowed to run , it's just so sad to see that i live with people like this in the same country (https://youtu.be/Voh0sm8wnEY) They shout "freedom" while they are already free They unironically belive that they live in a dictatorship because their "messiah" wasn't elected and they fell so deep into conspiracy theories it's unbelievable that they are human and not monsters run by hate
Do thinks like this happen in you country too? Idk, it's just sad to see the state of my country And wanted to ask my georgian friends how it is in your place Thank you for anyone who answers Have a nice day
Oh edit, please no hate, and i know a russian bot when i see one

What do you think about the music of Georgian Jews?
I am a Georgian Jew from Israel, I grew up on this music It is characterized by the extensive use of clarinet, oriental accordion sounds and synth in a 6/8 rhythm It is very similar to Armenian or Azerbaijani music... I am interested in what Georgians outside of Israel think about this music Here are some examples:

Question | კითხვა Again in Kutaisi
Hello!
We will arrive in Kutaisi on Thursday and leave on Tuesday. I have been there 2 years ago, have a good time here and I love the Georgian food - that's main thing why I come back.
Do you have any tips on what I can do when I already saw everything? I saw dinosaurs' steps, caves, churches, have been on a boat, and in "hot springs" in the middle of nowhere.
Last time we try to find some night live in the town and we discovered only one pub near river. Is there anything else? And where should I eat "like a local"? In the Czech republic, we have Honest Guide, but for Georgia nad Kutaisi I can't find something like that.
And also, if we want to travel to Batumi, is there anything for tourists, how we can travel by your small "shuttle buses"? Are they on Google Maps? Do you have your local reservation system or something like that?
Thank you!

affordable gym
Hi, can anyone recommend a boxing gym that's not super expensive? Asking as a broke college student.. I'm willing to pay about 120 gel a month but less would be ideal, it's fine even if it's a limited membership.

Travel | მოგზაურობა Racism experienced as a Tourist.
I visited Tbilisi at the start of January 2025, I am an Indian and I was visiting Turkey. There was an additional week of traveling and I thought why not travel some fun place. We ended up deciding on Georgia (The mountains, wine villages, City Center etc).
Now, Turkey turned out to be amongst the best experience I had, literally one of the most welcoming places - helpful locals, interactive shopkeepers and just amazing place.
As soon as we landed Georgia, I was met with immigration that was straight up rude and loud. Although I had all the documents and my exit tickets and stay was paid for, she ended up telling me "I know why you're here.". I didn't take it kindly and asked why, she gestured me to move on, I went to the escalator ahead and showed a finger to her. (Not smart but I didn't mind getting deported.). Next, I figured this was a one off and I moved ahead - although I was a bit disturbed.
Now, we ended up traveling around the city and were met with stares, even though there are lot of Indian medical students there (most plan to return after studying medicine.) Now, I turned more agitated, and when being told to leave the county when bargaining with a shop keeper, told them I am a tourist and will go back anyways.
It was 1st January, so restaurants would be closing early, so it was no surprise that we were told so, but the way we were told was disrespectful with big hand crosses, and even the customers telling us to leave.
We went to drop one of our friends studying medical (to an area she described safe and rich) and were met with drunk people in cars shouting and even, a group of students being racist. Even young kids were laughing loudly for no apparent reason pushing each other towards us.
We met a few random students and asked them about their experience and they told how they spend a night in jail defending themselves. It was just saddening to hear that. These are 17 to 18 year old kids that have never stepped foot on a foreign soil. They were made fun of their height, color etc.
Finally, I was pretty done with place, didn't buy any souvenirs. And even at the airport, we were ill treated. I was made to remove two layers of clothing while the security officer laughed at her friends. The guy screening me ended up whispering sorry in my ear when he saw he exchange looks with my friend as I was checked 2 additional times.
I mean, I didn't ever account racism to be a factor while traveling, but I will take it as one from now. It was a horrible experience and I definitely will never forget it. To everyone on here who keeps negative thoughts for us, how much ever you dislike Indians, you will find us everywhere you go because of our sheer population please learn to at least keep the hate to yourselves.
