are tomahawks really good for that price?

[@JuisSekasi]

Usually difference in 10€ steak, and 100€ steak is the name of the restaurant... and if you want 0.10€ worth of leaf gold on it, thats 500€

[@Qb3nsis]

$275 for an "American Wagyu" would be an appropriate price given the hype around the restaurants. That's giving them a lot of grace though because it was probably a Tomahawk "gold cut" which retails for around half the price the original $275 expected charge.

[@shanehunt4661]

Ye I get T-bone steaks at a place called porterhouse, top quality restaurant and it's $60 haha

[@rangered_64]

In terms of the Venezuelan situation, i think Asmon doesnt understand it. The dictator of that country really doesn't care nor does Salt Bae, because what Salt Bae cares is just hanging around people who’re rich and just getting more money himself (doesn't matter if they're controversial or not). If anything, the "moral bs" isn't bs, its like the old French monarchy dining whilst their entire country starves. So idek what Asmon is trying to say about the situation regarding Venezuela.

[@randomchannel5686]

No it’s not about misunderstanding it’s just that he’s a rich person who doesn’t care. It’s the kind of behavior that’s easy for some of us to expect from him. I mean it was easy to see from the beginning to see what kind of behavior he has, being a rich person seeking money who didn’t care. Personally I expected this behavior from him so it’s easy for me to brush it off too. The man’s an idiot who is money hungry what do you expect, all politics aside. But then when someone gets injured and you can’t pay the victim that’s almost a new low. Just my 2 cents

[@rangered_64]

@randomchannel5686 Oh no I did expect that from him, but I just give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Same thing goes for Hasan. Either way, if they're gonna say something about a country's struggles by chatting shit about it and saying "it's not a big a deal", then that's not the best thing overall.

[@pank3245]

I think what Asmon was saying is that Salty shouldn't be at fault for the Venezuelans starving. He was just there to cook a meal for the Dictator probably by request.

[@swordre5805]

I have a feeling that Asmongold do not know the situation in venezuela.

[@PareSM]

Yeah I don’t see how anyone who genuinely knows what’s going on there can defend what he tried to defend

[@reignmack]

[@s0uldr4ke]

Hey Asmon regarding the Venezualean President. There is a difference between having a customer in front of you who you can't refuse and inviting a dictator who led his country into an truely awful state. I think you strongly underestimated the Situation in Venezuela, to give a small example. The starvation of the population has become so bad that the people commonly refer to it as "The Maduro Diet", the government at some point gave rabbit's to the population to prevent starvation, obviously that did nothing in the long term. Inviting somebody to your restaurant to eat 11kg of Meat while the population starves is a terrible look, similar terrible would it be if he served Kim Jong Un with 11kg of meat in front of some North Korean farmers. He invited Maduro for the same reason why he took the World Cup trophy and invited Saudi monarchs or famours football players, to gain fame and I think it is not too much to ask of any human being to take a step back and think for some minutes who to invite and who not, essentially breaking the question down to "Who do I want to be associated with?"

There's no "Czechoslovakia" as a country since 1993 and the "Czechoslovakian" language never in fact existed, there are two separate Czech and Slovak languages.

Fidel honestly wasnt even that bad as Americans picture him... I was born in Communist Czechoslovakia so we were able to see both sides of Cuba while our regime was Communist and later also while it was Democratic. Cuba was during the cold war pretty big hotspot for tourists from Easter block so we were able to see what the Cubans thought of Castro both before and after end of the cold war, and their opinions usually reamined the same: Before Communist revolution on Cuba, they said that they were treated almost like slaves and werent able to buy nor affort anything... After the revolution living standards of an avarge Cuban improved drastically and most of them were for the first time able to get a house with hot water, heating and more than one room. What I saw and heard from the cubans, the people that emigrated were usually former influential high class citizens that used the common folk almost as slaves.
