India is currently facing an extreme water crisis which I think may be irreversible (atleast for a couple decades) which means a massive Indian exodus is likely in the making. Where will they go and how?

What happened between 23-24 (the dip)?


Orientalism (1978), book by Edward Said, sheds a bright light on this phenomenon. Perceptions of Eastern cultures in the Western world are shaded by the ideologies and prejudices of Western imperialism and colonialism.

India is doing in occupied Kashmir what Israel has been doing in Palestine: illegal settlements, occupation, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, etc. Just that Indians are not as effective, and the media coverage is low.

A major reason why Europeans and US back Israel against Palestine is a concept that is often missed. Western countries still have colonies all over the world, occupying native nations and subjecting them to imperialism. Hawaii, Guam, French Polynesia, Marshall Islands, French Guyana, Ceuta, all over the Pacific, Caribbean, and other places. If Palestine breaks free of imperial subjugation, it can have a snowball effect all over the world in these US/Euro occupied lands.


I can already see people dumping Western electronics. The BDS movement to boycott Israeli products appears to be expanding to include Taiwanese, Japanese and Western electronics. Not only exploding devices, but also that stint by Elon to kill-switch Kadyrov's Tesla, have both increased mistrust in Western tech.

China, Japan reach agreement on ocean discharge of Fukushima nuclear-contaminated water​

The competent departments of China and Japan have reached the following agreement:

1. Japan explicitly commits to fulfilling its obligations under international law, doing its utmost to avoid leaving negative impact on human health and the environment, and conducting continuous evaluations of the impact on the marine environment and marine ecosystems.

2. Given the concerns of China and all other stakeholders, Japan welcomes the establishment of a long-term international monitoring arrangement within the International Atomic Energy Agency framework covering key stages in the discharge of the nuclear-contaminated water, and will ensure that China and all other stakeholders can participate substantively in the arrangement and that these participating countries can carry out independent sampling and monitoring as well as inter-laboratory comparisons.

3. Both sides agree to continue to have constructive, science-based dialogue with a great sense of responsibility for the ecosystem, the environment, and human life and health, to properly address concerns over the discharge of the nuclear-contaminated water into the ocean.

4. China states that it has taken temporary emergency precautions against aquatic products of Japanese origin according to relevant Chinese laws and regulations and WTO rules. After China participates substantively in the long-term international monitoring within the IAEA framework and the independent sampling and other monitoring activities by participating countries are carried out, China will begin to adjust the relevant measures based on scientific evidence and gradually resume imports of Japanese aquatic products that meet the regulation requirements and standards.

Unfortunately this is most likely because there isn't a lot of reporting on mainstream press currently about TikTok, it's mostly dominated by the election news cycle and Israel.

If mainstream press begin reporting negatively about TikTok again the amount of support for a ban will grow, and since the ban will occur post-election, I'm not optimistic about TikTok's chances. It's ultimately because US social media and tech companies don't want the competition, they will lobby and pressure as much as possible to see a ban go through.

I'm sure one can find many examples of (random nationality) killing (random nationality) nationality every year

The only reason this case got so much attention is that Western media wants to create a narrative of "nationalistic China", hence the absurd amount of attention

India is the Horned Rat of Warhammer Fantasy.

"In this case the Horned Rat is an embodiment of decay, ruin, pestilence, strife, hunger, ambition and all the other ignoble characteristics that represent the sum total of all the Skaven race is and all the ratmen hope to be."

"Undying and eternally scheming, this cunning deity patiently awaits the day of the 'Great Ascendancy,' when his children will swarm across the face of the mortal world, devouring it from within and granting him the power to become the greatest of all the gods."
