BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•South Africa suspends American businesses and mineral exportsEnglish13·5 months agoGood news if true.

BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Economic growth could fall 50% over 20 years from climate shocks, say actuariesEnglish61·6 months agoThat growth is disproportionately benefiting the ultra wealthy so this is good news.

BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Russia’s sabotage of western targets ‘could trigger Nato defence clause’English1015·8 months agoAmerica still behaves like it’s in the colonial era.

BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Briton faces jail in Dubai after criticising ex-boss on GoogleEnglish102·8 months agoI thought Dubai was trying to create tourist resorts? Can’t think of a worse advert. These people are essentially cave dwelling desert nomads from the bronze age who no one would have heard of if not for our oil addiction. Another failed former colony of the British.
BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•EU moving towards more xenophobic view of ‘Europeanness’, report warnsEnglish4·10 months agoAn institution like the EU is always going to be vulnerable to bigots and idiots in large numbers. The EU is also often viewed as an impediment to big business. Their values are not the same and I’m glad about that.

Why are we spending a fortune proping up these old wrecks when their quality of life is already shit?
It’s the topic nobody wants to talk about. We want to live in the fantasy land where we can keep going forever.

The Americans are the real global terrorist organisation.

BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Iran offers no response to Damascus strike if US secures Gaza ceasefire - reportEnglish3·1 year agoThe Americans are the sinister and mendacious psychopaths of international diplomacy. It’s much less nuanced and not very interesting.
BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Iran offers no response to Damascus strike if US secures Gaza ceasefire - reportEnglish14·1 year agoIranian diplomacy operates along the lines of a Jinn. Every move feels like a Faustian bargain. You ask the Jinn for a giant penis and it gives you a giant penis attached to your head, then disappears in a puff of smoke.
BilboBargains@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Chechnya bans all music deemed too fast or too slowEnglish9·1 year agoThey like to cha-cha real smooth. But not too smooth.
