They are jumping pass oil and coal because of up front cost and the cost of fuel compare to natural gas. Those places are still building natural gas because of its advantages. Low initial cost, low fuel cost, lower emissions and easily throttlable power. When compare to renewables, oil and coal loses but when compared to natural gas it compliments each other. So natural gas isnt going anywhere in the foreseeable future.

Another asshole would just take Putin's place. Remember that Putin was originally the Russian that was going to repair Russian/Western relations. World leaders had originally thought very highly of him and generally trusted him.
“I looked the man in the eye. I found him to be very straightforward and trustworthy, I was able to get a sense of his soul.”
Are we going to make that mistake again? I say just let Russia run its course. Then if that happens we can maybe get this awesome & super scary tom clancy-esque bullshit where the West and China both race to secure their nuclear weapons when Russia falls apart.

That's one of the reasons why Putin felt that he needs to hurry up with the war. They already saw that easy money of 2000-2010 are gone and are never coming back.

And 3/4's of the world cooks on bottled gas. The market in SE Asia is big enough if Gazprom can get in with contracts displacing Australia. Geopolitics will determine their success, however there is demand especially if they just decide to flood the market with cheap gas.

That's a big reason for Russia pushing hard into Africa and Ukraine. Both locations have rich lithium deposits that would add an incredibly valuable trade supply into their economy and lower their need for importing it or importing foreign products that use it. Eastern Ukraine is also rich in natural gas.

Labeling yourself an independent is a cop out so that you can always point a finger and say “wasn’t me.” Just because my beliefs more align with libertarian values, in no way means that I am allegiant to anyone. I do my research and use discernment to vote. As should we all. We are lucky to be in a country that gives us that freedom.

I wonder if said new president will continue the policies of the predecessor she lauded so much and do fuck all about this because it's too hard to fight the drug cartels even to maintain basic internal sovereignty. She did campaign almost entirely on the MORENA party line, after all.

By definition they technically already are a failed state. The issue is they’re a fully functioning failed state.
Though, there are sociological aspects to what makes a functioning state. Many would preclude mass crime and systemic murder as dysfunctional.
It really is bent to hell, but there really is nothing to do about it but wait for the inevitable collapse of such politics, as shown throughout history.

Diplomacy is not based on the size of the little flags next to the people doing diplomacy. Given that America is larger, more wealthy, and could destroy's Israel's army with its own if it wanted to go and invade and occupy more of the middle east, I don't think it matters at all. Everyone in the diplomatic world knows that the sole world superpower is more powerful than the regional power they are allied to.

holiest site.

I mean, it's literally called the Temple Mount. The Temple is specifically the Second Temple, the holiest site in Judaism which was destroyed by the Romans in 68 AD, destroying most of the compound except for a section called the Western Wall. The Western Wall is the closest (publically open) location to the former Holy of Holies room, and forms a part of the base of the Temple. Up until the 16th century, the location of the Western Wall was relatively unknown and had actually been used as a trash dump for the Caliphates that had ruled the city.
Capturing Jerusalem from the Jordanians in 1967 resulted in the quote "The Temple Mount is in our hands", the first time since pre-Roman biblical times that Jews had control of the Temple Mount again, and a monumental moment for Jews worldwide.
Muslims built the Al Aqsa mosque _within_ the compounds of the Temple and various agreements forbade Jews from praying within the compound (many religious Jews see this as a slap in the face by the Israeli government for agreeing to it, including Ben Gvir). This is why entering the Temple Mount is seen as a power move by the religious right and an attack by the Muslims. It has caused many, _many_ riots by Muslims with clashes in the Temple Mount between Muslim rioters and Israeli police, including as of last year rioters barricading themselves within the Al Aqsa Mosque and shooting fireworks at policemen that surrounded it.
Many religious Jews would see full ownership of the Temple Mount as a huge win for Judaism, but current conditions and political compromises have prevented them from doing so. It's also a big reason why Israel refuses to give up Eastern Jerusalem in the proposed hostage deals, as it gives away a section of the Temple Mount and the old city of Jerusalem to full control of the Palestinians governments, and dangerously close to the huge congregation of Jews at the Western Wall. Douglas Murray explains it best - the Palestinians won't stop at just East Jerusalem, they'll eventually want to take it all, just as they have said in every statement and protest since 1948

I don't think so. If the immigrants integrate their birthrate adapts to that of the local population, and if they don't it causes more problems then it solves. I think the root of the problem is economic, specifically the younger generation getting shafted economically by the older generation.

Japan as much as they're technologically advanced the mindset of society in general is still often old world. Xenophobic immigration policies, work till you drop culture, saving face, men first, many feudal theories still remain such as Giri which can cause conflict in today's age. Couple that with old religious or cultural beliefs and it's no wonder people won't want to meet and have kids and enjoy life.
Don't get me wrong - respect is awesome in a society as is a strong work ethic but if something is too extreme it causes problems.

The short version is that having kids hurts quality of life, with a side dish of wanting your children to be better off than their parents were.
Children are expensive and hugely time consuming, and as the population becomes wealthier, that time cost becomes more expensive financially. That's a one-two punch to the family finances, and on top of that, the better off the family is, the more it costs to provide the kids with prospects similar to their parents.
Sprinkle with negative outlooks on the future and you have the general outline, though the details vary by nation.

people can't afford kids. even with all the extra long work hours. It's getting worse and worse every year as wages stagnate. It also leads to a serious pessimism about even bringing a child into a world like that. the declining birth rates happening in basically the entire developed world are not going to improve until we figure out a reasonable way to redistribute wealth away from the very top of the top.

It's an opportunity cost issue. If the wife is going to be staying at home and doing housework, then adding a few kids to the mix adds similar duties. Her life is still fairly similar.
If the wife would otherwise be working, then maternity leave is a huge change, and her life is completely transformed.

I think people don’t want to have kids anymore because why put all of your energy into raising something that’s going to stare into a smartphone screen all day and become violent and hostile when you try to take away their phone. What’s the point? Kids today seem spoiled and dull. I would have enjoyed being a mother back in the 90s but these days parenting just seems too complicated and exhausting and pointless.

Not only that but it carries over when they come here to the US.

They bring their wife over or family and they are just at work allllll day never seeing them. I befriended several and their families wanted to move back to Japan and one of them had to file for divorce within a year and half of being here... Pretty miserable

It’s AMAZING how governments will try everything but actually taxing the super wealthy and giving people a livable wage to try and fix the falling birth rates.
Like mfers it ain’t hard just stop concentrating the wealth in the 1%, bring back the estate taxes at 98% after like 20million and give people a wage that is line with housing prices….
People don’t need to the ability to meet other broke people to have kids they need their governments to stop robbing their futures.

Sure its similar, but its very different to what other countries call a cost of living issue where they have seen prices slowly grow faster than wages over the past 20 years, rather japan has been stagnant for 17 of those 20 years and the past 3 years has started to copy what everyone else has been doing.
