Protests all over France; set schools and a person ablaze
Macron and his wife attending a celine dion's concert in the middle of a national crisis was a major political misstep, a STUPID MOVE The way they were enjoying themselves, they were giving Antoinette' Qu'ils mangent de la brioche vibe, and we all know how that ended, don't play with French people when they go to the street to protest The inefficiency of left parties is making it easy for radical fascists to gain ground, some Western political systems need a massive change

Spain dissolves parliament and calls a November election
There's so much far right and authoritarian rhetoric going on in Spain right now that I'm pretty sure the PP, possibly together with Vox, will win this time. It's really unfortunate for the working class, because these parties could interpret a victory as a sign that people are satisfied with the current housing situation, so it would allow them to make things even worse over the next few years. I genuinely feel bad for the great Spanish people who may have to suffer the consequences. That said, the Pedro Sanchez government hasn't done nearly enough to solve the housing crisis either. The problem of Ceuta also has a huge impact these days

Russian gay couple faces deportation from Switzerland due to perceived lack of danger
They cannot simply have a regular job in Switzerland without the legal residence permit. But the bigger question is: what have they actually been doing in Switzerland since 2021? I find it difficult to believe that they have simply been waiting for a Swiss decision all this time. There seems to be something missing from the story.

Melania Trump recalls "beautiful childhood" growing up in socialist Slovenia
She ruined that beautiful childhood image for me when she grew up and chose to put herself in the same bed as someone like Trump. Especially now, I genuinely cannot imagine how she lets that man with that body sleep over her. Damn, I'd rather **** a cucumber.

Canada preparing for possible US military action
Gave the US everything it wanted is an exaggeration: Denmark and Greenland retained sovereignty... Expanding US military access only was not everything trump wanted.. Expanding US military access is not the same as giving trump everything he wanted. His demands went far beyond military access, including US control over Greenland, which Denmark and Greenland did not concede. Canada is also actively expanding its own Arctic presence and explicitly framing it around Canadian sovereignty. I see your point tho and i agree but calling them US. vassals and predicting Canada will capitulate is interpretation and speculation, not evidence.

Canada preparing for possible US military action
After getting his ass wiped by Denmark, now it's Canada's turn? Imagine going to war with these two peaceful countries, which rank higher than the America in social services and overall living conditions, btw.

Ed Sheeran doubles down on "both sides are bad" and "i'm apolitical"
Apolitical? Didn't he bring Antytila on stage in Warsaw, where they performed with the Ukrainian flag displayed? Didn't he explicitly say, I stand with Ukraine? And didn't he donate the royalties from 2step to help Ukraine? All of that is great, but the double standard in calling himself apolitical now is pretty concerning.

Zara Larsson pulls out of Abu Dhabi concert after backlash
Fifa? Lmao. You can add that corrupt organization to the list alongside the UAE and Israel. And yes, i love me some shakira but her or anyone else working with them should be held responsible too, but this won't happen tho becaus we live in a world where even Palestine apparently wouldn't come before football, except for some players. The audience, however, is so blindly devoted that even if the devil owned the sport, people would still support both footfall and fifa

Zara Larsson pulls out of Abu Dhabi concert after backlash
What?? What did she say? Unlike the UAE or even Israel, Western countries don't rely as heavily on influencers and events like these to promote a positive image abroad. That's essentially promotion, and governments like the one in UAE or Israel do have a role in facilitating it. Zara or anyone else wouldn't simply be allowed to enter or operate in a country if those government had a specific reason to block them. For example, someone openly opposing the uae emirati or israeli government would certainly face very different circumstances from someone criticizing a western government, because in the west there are separate institutions and stronger protections for freedom of speech, so people can publicly criticize thosegovernments, even over wars or alleged crimes without necessarily facing the same consequences. Theres an exception with america during the Trump administration, maybe Americans have learnt their lessons but its institutional structure remains different from that of the UAE or even israel, and most importantly by attending events like thesein a western country, they are mostly for the fans only without promoting anything about the country itself

Turkish police raids gay bars, detains dozens in the name of "family values"
Turkey was safe and it's genuinely sad to see things come to this, because it's a beautiful coutnry. First the tragic treatment of poor stray dogs, and now this… a disgusting ideology taking hold. They desperately need another Ataturk to put the country back on a secular and modern path before it's too late. And uncontrolled immigration is also putting enormous pressure on the country and changing it in ways that many people are increasingly concerned about. Otherwise, rip this beautiful country.
