World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Then Carney is naive to the point of being a possible-liability, strategically..
Trump fundamentally/ideologically NEEDS the woke EU broken/destroyed, & only between a Putin + Trump pincer can that be accomplished.
Using Alaska & Greenland to sever ALL Canada's trade, allows Trump to then become king of the entire continent, & then the Putin+Trump pincer can destroy the EU,
.. leaving Putin & Trump the only remaining "kings" of the West.
THAT is the unconscious-goal that will be controlling our futures ( given that it has the civil-authority to enforce its will on the world, to the US military's extent ).
Nevermind the scrambledness of Trump's conscious "strategy", pay attention instead to the underlying, UNconscious strategy, & then you will see what's really going to be ruling this world..
Unconscious-strategy e.g: Hamas had no conscious strategy in attacking Israel that Oct day ( it was a tactic without strategy ), but they definitely had an unconscious strategy:
to prove, through Israel's rampaging genociding of Palestine, that Muslims have to not care at all what "deterrent" that Israel has, only ANNIHILATION of Israel can be tolerated..
Anddd... Israel took the bait.
Hook, line, sinker, even the fishing-rod they ate..
Should be ?within a year of 2028? .. when Israel gets annihilated.
( the annihilation of Israel predicted in the Christian bible, Matt 24, iirc, refers to this specific event, btw: its "footprint" in humankind's unconscious is big, same as the rest of the species-extinction events are, or near-extinction, if some fraction of humankind survives this century.. )
Anyways, that's how unconscious mind's strategy works: MAKE the myth it is identifying-with, be forced into enactment, because G-D will ( of course.. ) obey our "entitlement", and remove all accountability or responsibility from us, "the chosen"!
( yeah, I'm bitter & cynical, now: I'm old )
All the apocalyptic-"Christians" are unconsciously working to make their unconscious-myth become the world's ONLY frame..
Same with all, of all cultures!
We're no different from them, in that..
( the brilliant psychological-insight in the Christian bible, using the term "behemoth", or herd-beast, to identify our unconscious-mind's herdbeast-nature .. how many people admit, nowadays, that that's fundamental in human-nature?
yet the evidence is all-pervading! "fads", "fashion", "mobs"/stampeding, etc.. we make ourselves incompetent when we ignore evidence's Truth.. ).
Anyways, I've predicted ( couple months ago? ) that there'd be a kind of Putin/Trump/Netanyahu alliance, as their values are fundamentally the same, & now Trump's interfering in Israel's internal affairs to prevent any prosecution of Netanyahu..
yeah, it's all fitting into a coherent image, more & more..
Remember the different-scale of the unconscious-progression, though:
the back-and-forth, the friends-enemies-friends at the personal level is just local-turbulence.
The real world-shaping is happening at a deeper, more-fundamental, level.
Trump & Musk are going to be collaborating, later, in destroying the viability of all "others" ( for their definition of "others" ).. just wait a few years..
Same with Trump & Putin..
etc..
You will see, when WW3 begins, in the early 2030's, only ?4? major alliances left, on the planet.
Globalization, but taken to the fatal degree ( due to deranged "values" that humankind "couldn't afford" to correct, in the past, now having the technology to extinguish our species, completely, if its ego doesn't get to be "god" ).
Watch, through the next few years, as humankind becomes sooo polarized, that our world gets turned into a kind of cartoon of hell.
As-in cartoon-evil leaders ruling their territories, & cartoon others ( either hapless, or overwhelmed, or clean but "good is not soft" https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GoodIsNotSoft for that concept ) competing against them..
Most of the world is too corruption/ineducation entrenched for it to be able to choose adapting/evolution, so .. most of this world's population will be gone ( unless all of it'll be gone, the only real alternative ) by the end of this century..
Status Quo is just a mirage, now.
The Great Filter, when the ideological-toddler world-species has full world-ecology-butchering capability, & factionally uses it to enforce that each faction's ideology be "the only Lord!".. butchering all "others", but whole-planet-scale, everything, all at once, deathmatching until only 1 faction is left alive..
People wonder why the galaxy seems silent of civilizations..
The Great Filter would certainly explain it, wouldn't it?
& I don't expect more than a tiny fraction of humankind to be able to survive forced growing-up..
Back to Carney, though..
All you have to do, to see Trump's true-nature, is to map his 1980's location on each spectrum/dimension of human-evil, & contrast it with today's location on the same spectrums:
So, if you do that, you discover that on ALL dimensions of human-evil ( that I currently know-of, the psychology-profession acknowledged "Dark Triad" being only 3 of those dimensions, obviously ), Trump has moved deeper into darkness..
Why bother ignoring that?
Why not accept that that's accelerating?
& there is a consequence of it accelerating, too..
Trump won't tolerate his rule to be pruned by any "Constitution", so therefore he HAS to throw the US of A into war, of some kind, to such a degree, that the Constitution then is obliterated from constraining him.
Canada is his only geographically-usable target, for the scale of war that he requires.
Remember what Russia did to Ukraine, in Mariupol?
Trump's going to be doing to Canada what Putin did to Ukraine.
2028-ish, -/+ 1y.
The escalation ( world-scale ) isn't going to magically "just calm down", it'll keep escalating, even if it has to change-form, or change-focus, or change-direction, in various ways, at various times, but the fundamental unconscious-tantrum-pogrom, aka myth-enactment, that humankind is beginning to make real, will exterminate nearly-all of the human life on this planet by the 2080's, when it's done.. ( at best ).
Status Quo won't "protect" us any-more than it did the poor millions who got dragooned into WW2.
It's deja-vu all over again.
Stop mistaking the local-turbulence for the underlying-current!
Carney's getting that wrong, now.
That will begin costing lives, here, in less than 3 years, & keep escalating until either Canada or the US is completely destroyed ( or both..
When you throw ClimatePunctuation into the mix.. much of the US is going to become uninhabitable, later this century, & that's another force making Trump have to butcher us: lose much of California & Texas to heat, & .. you have to expand your northern-territory, don't you?
Comforting naiveness doesn't protect: it's too-often fatal. ).
