Italy’s parliament erupts into violence over government bill
  • Fighting over scraps really in a country where depopulation is reducing Italy to just a powerless retirement village full of old people

  • Why Europe is lurching to the right
  • Ahh a win for hate and bigotry!

  • ‘I am starting to panic about my child’s future’: climate scientists wary of starting families
  • The population is actually tipped to massively reduce on the next 100 years due to a large portion of people not have babies simply due to crappy economic conditions, inflation, war the lying flat movement in china and the ever increasing destruction of the middle class into the homeless poor. Aside from rich people destroying peoples ability to have happy lives, there's also the plastic problem that's quite literally made every male living thing have a reduced sperm count and it continues to drop as plastic is in the air, our clothes carpet and oceans. Endocrine disruptors in our bodies are being effected by chemicals found in vinyl products, thermal receipts and Tupperware releasing chemicals when heated in microwaves. These things are so small they enter the bloodstream and pass through the blood brain barrier.. Fuuuck

    So if you want to save the future start by sniping off rich oligarchs and ban plastic completely

  • Argentine austerity anger mounts, but govt says its working
  • Anytime a government mentions privatising something, it sells a public asset for pennys in the dollar, which cuts quality of service to make a profit and as a result drives up its cost as the government that sold it pockets a commission to use as a war chest against its opposition.

    It basically privatises the profit and socialises the debt. So instead of government debt (which is easier to pay off as governments don't die like humans do and they get better rates of interest) it becomes public debt ie people become impoverished.

    Recently economists in Australia have come to the realisation that inflation by in large isn't caused by regular citizens as much as it by large private profits from ceos and executive pay packets and tax avoidance of the companies in general.

    Taxing the large corporate empires that sneak into Argentina and pay little to no tax would not only address the cause of Argentinas inflation it would reduce the debt and pay for vital services like medical, roads, education etc..

    An example that comes to mind is all the foreign mining companies that literally steal the wealth out the ground of your country and pay nothing to the people that live there.

    Like what currently happens in most countries with conservatard governments in power

    But don't tell the Yanks they'll replace your government before you can whistle Yankee doodle Gough Whitlam! Cough cough

  • From memory I think Qt has ties to proprietary software which doesn't make it properly open source. I'm surprised the KDE team havnt looked at trying to move away from QT based on this

  • Extreme heat is pushing India to the brink of ‘survivability.’ One obvious solution is also a big part of the problem | CNN
  • If only they could build housing underground, the need for heating or cooling greatly reduces. But this would require India to have decent infrastructure, planning and foresight. Hard to do with so much religous / political nonsense (caste system + modi ) standing in the way of progress

  • US Media Suppressed Their Government’s Role in Ousting Brazil’s Government
  • Australia would have had nationalised land and ocean resources like Denmark has right now. We would have been trillions in the black if it weren't for Richard Nixon and Queen Elizabeth dismissing the then Prime minister Gough Whitlam back in the day!

  • Removed
    US engaging in high-level diplomacy to avoid vetoing UN resolution on critical aid
  • Its such bullshit that all the US jeebus freaks think its somehow gods will and "Christ like" to deny people that are starving most of which are kids btw. Denying aid which would be easy to pass honestly before a cease fire is fucking cruel. So much for "good guy" america

  • Was gonna leave a comment here, but everything I could have said has been. Its heart warming to see so many people using their brains and backbone to speak out against this kind of bullshit. Although it probably won't stop it being passed.

    Unless you could pass a law to stop old people from voting as they have less skin in the game then a child does.

  • Pornhub among porn sites to be policed by strict EU digital rules
  • Looks like pirating content won't just be for expensive streaming services yarrr

  • Is Ubuntu deserving the hate?
  • Is nixos very upstream? I kinda like the idea of creating an immutable script that assembles my os just how I like, configured installed and ready with flatpaks for apps so they're all sitting securely in their respective boxes. I think this is also Chris Fishers preference as well ;)

  • Netanyahu: Defeating Hamas will make prophecy of Isaiah a reality
  • Half of the Gaza strips population are kids under 15, this cunt deserve a slow torturous fucking death for what he's done.

    If this fuck knuckle had an ounce of human decency, he could of simply annexed the Gaza strip to Egypt. Theyre at least tolerant of both Christians and Muslims.

  • Anti-Semites cannot be granted German citizenship under new law - minister
  • So its bad when Nazi's kill people indiscriminately, but when Jews do it to Palestinians that's totally fine?
