Kidnapping in the name of imagined exceptionalism

Mon, 05 Jan 2026 22:37:21 GMT

Although it may be speculative and a bit too early to say that, but the abduction of Venezuela's head of state, commmited by the United States, looks like to become a stunt which, this time, in the long run, won't agree with them. This open "we do whatever the fuck we want"-manner demonstrates too much a deep-seated attitude of ignorance and disrespect against other nations, also against international law - when the moment should come that the United States are going to sink down into a very large whole that will keep them busy with themselves and their own order for a longer time, the international community will probably not have entirely forgotten these blatant acts of neocolonialism, and it might bring consequences into effect then (because the big bully on the schoolyard then isn't powerful enough anymore to force his will upon everyone else or even act vengeful in cases where he thinks to detect betrayal).

Ein (US-)Amerikaner als Papst?
Ausgerechnet in dieser Zeit?
Und das soll nichts mit der größeren Politik zu haben?

Waldbrände in Südeuropa

Wed, 26 Jul 2023 23:43:06 GMT

Wenn das, was man bis jetzt - insbesondere in diesem Jahr - gesehen hat, schrecklich und kaum handzuhaben findet, dann warte man mal ab, wenn der CO₂-Austoß aus den Jahren, als die Smartphones auf den Markt kamen, in der Atmosphäre herumgezogen sind und ihre volle Wirkung entfalten (was, laut Angaben, ca. 15 Jahre dauert)...
Da in diesen besagten Jahren die kurzlebige Verschwendung von Ressourcen nämlich erst richtig anfing.
Inklusive der Ausbau des globalen Internets zum Zwecke seiner endgültigen Kommerzialisierung stattfand. (Viele Rechenzentren und Festplatten, die rund um die Uhr laufen, nur damit Leute jederzeit irgendwelche Inhalte abrufen können...)

Jugendgewalt, die 2020er Edition

Wed, 22 Mar 2023 10:55:00 GMT

Da es aktuell mal wieder aufkommt, weil es einige medienwirksame Fälle gibt...
Offen und ehrlich: Spart euch die Tränen, euer öffentliches Herumgeheule und das betonte Entsetzen!
Eigentlich müsste man euch den Vorwurf des Laientheaters machen.
Warum?
Diese Art von Gewalt, dass Pubertierende gegen Gleichaltrige gewalttätig werden und es fröhlich filmen um sich später daran zu ergötzen und es über das Internet oder den Schulhof zu teilen, die gab es schon vor 10 Jahren und noch länger her. Die technischen Möglichkeiten, mit dem Handy zu filmen und zu fotografieren, gibt es nämlich schon so lang - sogar noch bevor Smartphones auf den Markt kamen. Seit ca. 15+ Jahren.
Und letztlich - davor wurden die Taten einfach nur nicht mit Bild und Ton dokumentiert. Geschehen sind sie aber trotzdem.
Was denkt ihr, warum Schüler einst an ihrer Schule Amok liefen? Jugendliche anderen Jugendlichen nach dem Leben getrachtet haben?
Etwa, weil "alles in Ordnung" war?

2022: Russia starts an endeavor that Western sources prophesied about for months and which some sympathizers of it say it was inevitable for 8 years already - the Russian Federation invades the former Eastern territories of Ukraine (since 2014: the self-proclaimed independent peoples’ republics of Donezk and Luhansk), officially calling it a “special military operation” in order to stop the ongoing bloodshed against ethnic Russians that takes place on these territories since shortly after a coup d'état in Kiev known as “Euromaidan”.

Drought 2022

Europe dries out this year...
Thank you, people! Thank you for traveling to Majorca every summer, for traveling to Turkey, Egypt and all the other Mediterranian areas, thank you for every cruise trip you ever joined in the last 20 years, thank you for producing and buying all the short-lived stuff and throwing things away before their expiration, thank you for outsourcing and globalized economy, thank you for all the wars in the Middle East, thank you for all the babies you had to get in the last 20 years, thank you for all the crap you've thoughtlessly thrown into nature, than you for all the stuff you have thoughtlessly taken from nature, thank you for valuing everything in money and rating it higher than matter - thank you for coming up and never getting enough!
That's what everyone gets from it!
And there's still way, way, WAY more to get!

No benefits without a service in return (Quid pro quo)

Hopefully those countries which now file their applications for becoming a member of the NATO don't forget that membership doesn't only mean getting "safe from a Russian invasion", but also, whenever the United States are up in a war again with anyone, they're firmly part of the cleanup squad then after that skirmish.

2007: A student of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (short: Virginia Tech) in Blacksburg, Virginia, commits a mass shooting, killing 32 people and wounding 17. After that, he takes his own life.
As a legacy, leaving behind a personal case history of mental dysfunctionality and a society, school and legal system who were both neither able to properly recognize his psychical shortcomings, nor to handle these accordingly and help them as needed.
