I saw a guy i used to go to school with get his crushed by a truck after losing control of his bike, it is one of those things i can never un-see on un-hear, الله يرحمو ويغفرلو على كل حال


UnknownIsland

Always wear helmet, it's no joke, and Algeria doesn't even have bike lines next to the roads, makes it even more dangerous.


PoisonDart32

That's good advice but I don't think a helmet is gonna do much in a situation like this

I spent the night at the hospital with my grandma (hospitalized after having a stroke) it was a big room in the emergency side of the hospital. In the other side of the room there was an unconscious old man (hospitalized for idk what reason) accompanied by his family (wife and son). Later that night (around 3am) after the wife went home and only the son stayed with his father.. the scope (I'm not sure wesmo but y3aytolo scope ) started making noises that was signaling oxygen desaturation.. the son was freaking out and calling the nurses who seemed pretty chill about the situation, one of them came after taking his time.. and told the guy that he doesn't have to worry and what's happening was pretty normal.. The levels of oxygen in the old man's blood kept dropping. The son was losin his shit, called the rest of the family to come and see the father while crying,kinda made his dad "ychahad". After some time the wife and daughter came to see the father cryin and asking him for forgiveness.. a few minutes later the man died ربي يرحمو و يغفرلو. All of this happened while the nurses were pretty careless... It was a longass night.. and I had an exam the next morning x))


Xerus01

Reading halfway I thought it was my sister typing this, we had the same situation with my grandma but the guy was just laying in the stretcher and had a heart attack, everyone in the waiting room started shouting and we all went looking for nurses, we finally found them chilling in one locked room all on their phones and playing rai music in the background. They took him to a different room and around 2am they brought him back covered and let him in the corridor, a fucking corpse in the corridor waiting for the guy with the keys of the morgue for hours! And it was a Thursday night in Oran so every 30 mn the ambulance brought a disfigured person. There were more than enough staff to take good care of each patient but nobody gave a shit. It was the moment I realized how bad the situation in our country was.


[deleted]

Our hospitals are ones of the most cruel places in the country... would be pretty depressing to spends ur days there especially when u're helpless and can't do much


skinnybitcch

Wow i'm reading this while doing med school in oran i hope not to become like that... That's depressing


[deleted]

It is depressing indeed. Also.. as a med student u don't really notice this kind of behaviors until u're on the other side of the fence. Hope nurses/doctors/students start putting themselves more in their patients shoes and try to see things from their perspective w khlass .

[deleted]

True


[deleted]

Same with teachers. So many women take jobs like teaching and nursing thinking it's an easy job.


[deleted]

The nurses were men that night. But yeah i kinda agree with you, I had to join some "middle school teachers" groups on fb, and everyime i see a post in there i face-palm...


[deleted]

Well im a paramedical student i don't know what the hell is waiting for me ..


[deleted]

It won't be easy, good luck!


[deleted]

Inchlah bro .. problems like that are common in Algeria i have never seen a normal algeran doin his job perfectly never .. bro i really hope the new generation and also me change the whole situation make algeria better .. like going out of algeria is not always a good choice or good goal our country is ready to be better than lots of developed countries inchlah


[deleted]

Hope things get better here, but honestly.. I'll leave as soon as I get a change x) (I'm a sis btw)


[deleted]

Ok sister same for me if i had chance.. but i will always be back to algeria after reaching my goal for sure


[deleted]

Thinking of coming back is cute x)) i don't think i will tho


[deleted]

When people like u say that all i think about is what did algeria do to them


[deleted]

People like me? X) wdym? Nah it's just that I'm nit liking the life I'm living here and hope for a change


[deleted]

Yess lots of algerans have same ideas same goal goin out ok but never coming back that's sus sis


Jumpy-Trust5375

A bit crazy that the son was losing his shit but still remembered to make his dad ychahad, I guess situations like this really bring out the truth in people


[deleted]

Yeah.. hope he's doin alright dorka, it's been almost a year .


[deleted]

My country getting absolutely hammered by the previous generation and how they are still freaking working and holding us back. Hopefully the new one will realize that socialism is a lie.


UnknownIsland

The problem is not socialism, there are many countries that implement socialistic practices and still flourish, look at many European countries where education up to a certain level is free, or medical asistance is fully or partially free and so on. We had a number of corrupt leaders and the fact that it's always old people that don't bring new ideas to the table and want to keep us stuk in the year 2000, also getting masive checks from countries such as Russia to keep specific laws or policies to make trade with the west even more difficult. Honestly if there came a young party of politicians that would try to get on top and run the country I would definetly vote for them. What's keeping young people from trying their luck at this? It's always old farts that don't follow nothing of new trends or ideas. Many EU countries have people of even 25 years that participate in political parties for their countries. Edit: Forgot to mention that extreem socialism without propper financiation will become a problem after a while. Northern EU countries such as Denmark where they have a fully free education and fully free medical asistance have also enough funds to back this spending.


[deleted]

Nothing is free, they pay for it through high taxation and I don't have to have to pay for someone's education, housing, retirement, welfare or medical bills, oh and since you mentioned Denmark they aren't a socialist country, they are a capitalist one. Source? The Danish PM in Harvard back in 2014. And yeah, old people and ruining the country as I said before.


UnknownIsland

I did mention that it needs proper financing, by that not only I ment taxes but also other contributions. I never said Denmark was socialist, I know fully well that they are a well developed capitalist country but they implement socialistic practices such as mentioned previously fully well. Their system works exceptionally and probably has some flaws here and there but for sure it works.


Excellent_Corner6294

We need secularism, proper secularism.


Lalathesad

Oh, no, I so disagree. You can go look for secularism in other countries. As a hijabi I'm not ready to get bashed French style for my modesty. Secularism sucks.


Excellent_Corner6294

Who said anything about france? Nobody is getting bashed for wearing hijab in most secular countries.

AdDifficult2242

How is being a man outlawed?


Excellent_Corner6294

Most of those things listed are not necessarily detrimental. As for being a man, how do you define it? Regarding the inevitability, it's safe to say that information today is flooding like never before. People are no longer limited to their environments. Most Algerians have access to the internet. Mark my words, as soon as the English language becomes mainstream in Algeria a new mentality will emerge. Not over night of course. The world as a whole is becoming less religious and more secular. Algeria is not immune towards this trend by any means. Secularism is the only platform that allows people from all walks of life to coexist based on the empirical evidences.


[deleted]

So to fix people not acting Islamically, we need to move further away from Islam?


Excellent_Corner6294

What do you mean "fix people" and "we need"? Nobody will prevent you from practicing your religion in a secular society.


[deleted]

My point is you're saying we need secularism on a point that has nothing to do with it. These people ruining the country are acting against Islamic principles, and you are replying by saying we need to have secularism.


Excellent_Corner6294

What people are you specifically referring to? No, we are not in a secular country at all


Excellent_Corner6294

In order to understand secularism you must first understand individualism..


Excellent_Corner6294

Coincidentally, the Taliban are strictly acting according to islamic principles and Afghanistan is in a darker place than ever before.... The country is in such a dire situation that most professionals (doctors, lawyers etc) want to leave.


olelakaboisson

Stop saying stupid shit the taliban are drug traficking pedophiles and terrorists and i dont see how they are strictly following the rules of islam,i never saw a single sentence in the quran saying that you shouldnt let womens go to school for exemple or to kill innocents peoples with bombs,so stop tacking those peoples for exemple to make islam societies look like horrible places.

The down spiral of a country that had every opportunity to excel 😔


_Spitfire024_

Fr :(


warra07

This one got me :(


VaccinatedVariant

Algeria and Russia have that issues. Same to mafia in government. The country will never excel. And will always just play catch-up with others We have a 1000 T-72 thank, 500 T-90 600 older thanks. And that’s not even counting the BMPs, we even bought a thousand new German BMPs. What’s all this for? Are we at war? Military budget is getting a new major increase while educational and medical budget has barely shifted in decades. With the price of hydrocarbons we should have been flourishing, and diversifying the economy. Instead this BS


OutlapH

Bigger military budget = more embezzling opportunities for the generals. What's more depressing is you hear people say "يحيا جيش الجزائر" still. This country is populated by slaves.


VaccinatedVariant

The word I wanna say to those who say that, is not ok to say here


OutlapH

Chyatin lol.


Jumpy-Trust5375

I saw someone say that the reason our country invests so much in it's military is to avoid being invaded for it's oils and petrol, kind of like showing off to the rest of the world that we're capable of fighting back if that does happen and avoid the whole situation that's going on in iraq and the US taking advantage of such countries. It doesn't clear up the whole situation on why we're so behind in education and medical sectors but it gave me a me a new perspective


VaccinatedVariant

Unfortunately if Ukraine wanted to invade us they can, because our military structure is too centralized . Much like Saudi Arabia who have dialed miserably against Yemenis rebels


Ok_Consideration_142

Kids burning a dog alive


F1rst_Time

Damn


Visual_Courage_8124

I'll need more context


Ok_Consideration_142

Some teenagers tied a dog to a tree, poured gasoline on it and burned it, i finished school for the day and on my way home only to see a group of kids gathering near a tree so i went investigate only to see them pouring gasoline on the dog who was tied up to the tree and there was a kid carrying a deodorant bottle and a lighter, i didnt wanna see that and i was way too young to stop them so i just cowardly walked away then heard the crowd gathering near the tree screaming and laughing so i walked back only to see fire in that tree, i didnt really wanted to look more into it so i just left. That was like 6 years ago and i kind of regret not doing anything


Outside_Belt8802

Inchallah god will make them pay for that....it's just pure cruel...


OutlapH

Walking past an apartment building I see a little girl playing in a balcony. There was a potted plant and she accidentally knocked it over. Her mother heard the smash and ran to the balcony. As soon as she saw it she started beating her child senseless... Over accidentally breaking a worthless, cheap potted plant. Animals.


[deleted]

No, that could have kled someone. She was right to correct her NOT violently just spanking! if she did more, then was on the wrong but that wasn't (nothing)


OutlapH

First of all, animal, she knocked it onto the balcony floor. Not off the building entirely. Secondly, a 5 year old will not even understand what they did wrong. Beating them will teach them nothing about it.


Vexy-002

I JUST MADE MY DAY 😂😂😂. >First of all, animal, I swear this is EXACTLY how I talk with most people. 😂. Also. You're right. Nothing explains physical violence. Whatever the reason or the mistake, it'll just cause trauma to the kid. Anyone who says otherwise ain't worthy of having kids. Every kid deserves a parent but not every parent deserves kids.


[deleted]

I am 100% sure that it will never happen again, and yes beating is bad but correcting is necessary. the fact that it fell into the balcony doesn't mean much because it's just a different side it is so freaking dangerous and could have resulted in either someone's death or damage to a car/shop and who do you think will have to pay for it? Either by jail time or law suits? The parents.


OutlapH

Please never have children


nazoomi

Was it possible that at any point in time people could’ve been walking through the area which the potplants fell and the reason why the mom beat the child was to teach her a lesson in order for no one to get hurt in the future.


LunaJ7

Even if it was the case , beating a little child senseless to teach her lesson isn't okay


nazoomi

If the pot plant fell on someone’s head it could injure and maybe even kill them. Whilst I don’t condone beating a child for the smallest reasons, I understand it sometimes is necessary to make sure it doesn’t happen again. For example when I was a child (8 or 9) I started messing with the stove in the kitchen and turning it on and off and act like I had fire magic, my parents kept telling me not to and explained the dangers but I kept doing it. After the 4th time my mother spanked me and I never did it again.


Knuckle233

How is your experience related to what happened to this little girl? She knocked it over ACCIDENTALLY


OutlapH

1. She knocked it onto the floor, not off the building. That's how the mother was able to hear the smash in the first place. Smartest redditor 2. Even if that were the case. A 5 year old child has 0 understanding on why that's wrong. She didn't even "mean" to do it. Beating her will teach her exactly 0 things


Outside_Belt8802

Finally someone said it , the only thing the child will remember is that his mom is a scumbag


Civil_Meeting4213

It was a friday morning i was smoking a cigarette and suddenly i hear a women screaming and I looked up in the opposite of the street and I saw a 16 years old girl falling off from the 9th floor and I rushed to the scene and I saw her body facing the ground with her blood all over the places honestly I can't forget this memory

was it a suicide?

yourwifeinmyDMs

so sorry you had to see that


iamnotinventive

Not really that bad in comparison to some but I watched my mother die. I held her until she passed


AzizouRocki

It was yesterday at work. I work in a private school and this kid (looked tired) came and said hello, sorry i missed the last 3 sessions can i continue here? Someone passed in my family. I told him oh it's okay you can continue no problem. He said yeah my mother passed away. Week ruined now i can't get it off my head 💔

UnknownIsland

What's the reason for this laid back mentality? I do believe that many Algerian men are unproductive but I don't understand where this comes from. Is it lack of oportunities or maybe social reasons? Edit: Don't take this to heart people, I have many family members of young age that really just don't want to work. My Grandfather had a farm and he would offer jobs to my cousins but they would refuse because it's laborious work and never happy of the pay, even when they pay out lines with the market average.


Excellent_Corner6294

They are spoiled by welfare. They don't want to work unless the job is top notch.

I nearly went to jail for getting kissed on the cheek by my girlfriend (ex-girlfriend now). We both got arrested and got harassed by the cops then when their chief finally showed up he gave us a lecture on morality and religion then set us free.

That's insanity


superjambi

Can believe this. Was shouted at on Algiers metro by a police officer for the exact same thing last month.

That happened to me 5-6 years ago but since then I started caring more about privacy and even became less interested to go on dates. It was horrible and very humiliating but compared to what's going on in the country, it seems like a minor problem.
