I did exactly say that that even though they say land of Hindus it just means India. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
I know you said the same thing, but as an indian i feel like its necessary to specify these things so that the world doesnt start associating the word with extreme hinduism. Cuz i sure have heard people associate the name with extreme right wing nationalists. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

Haha. That’s rich. Hamas cares so much about the wellbeing of the hostages they took and have been keeping in poor conditions with no access to the Red Cross or anything. Sure Hamas. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-09-06 |

>If this material was not created by nature as some claim. Where did this mysterious material come from and how did this complex material end up inside an ancient meteorite? Harvard professor Avi Loeb theorized that a less explored possibility is that our universe was created in the laboratory of an advanced technological civilization. Since our universe has a flat geometry with “zero net energy,” an advanced civilization could have developed a technology that created a baby universe out of nothing through quantum tunneling.
Well, did not expect an article about an anomalous geological discovery to turn into what is essentially a Gnostic claim about an artificial universe. Almost belongs in r/unexpected. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-09-06 |
Gantz 99.9% likely the war cabinet member who anonymously told Channel 12 news that Bibi is trying to undermine the ceasefire release deal since he said Bibi prioritized staying in power over the hostages
Furthermore, the ceasefire deal was divulged YNet, and there's absolutely nothing about Hamas disarming or giving up power in Gaza so Bibi was blatantly lying in public about Biden's speech. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-09-06 |

Most of the corruption charges are pretty small fry. Like nothing we saw in the US and no one really seems to care about that.
Mostly he's just the only person that knows how to put together coalitions, partially by playing groups against each other. The last coalition against him was unified basically only by being anti-Netanyahu, which just isn't enough to keep a coalition together. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

Gallant is very unlikely to leave the government because, after all, he is still part of the Likud party and always has been. I think he sees his time as pretty much done, he won't have a political career after this, so he doesn't have much to lose. For now, he will stay Minister of Defense as he is one of the last sane people in the party (with the next sane person probably being Yuli Edelstein in my opinion, now 12th on the party list, so pretty insignificant these days). Keep in mind that Netanyahu tried to fire him before the war started due to his opposition to the judicial reforms, so he very much isn't a yes man to Netanyahu like most of the party. Today is a big vote on a (un-)draft bill for the Ultra orthodox which Gallant has very much been lobbying against. He and one other from the Likud (Tali Gotlib, another [crazy woman](https://x.com/Kahlissee/status/1777376419955216390)) have already announced they will vote against it, meaning they only have 62 votes left. There is a lot of lobbying going on to stop the bill from passing from Gallant and Gantz as well as the rest of the opposition and they may succeed which may in turn topple the coalition and bring us to elections. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
Yeah, once upon a time there were sane elements in the U.S. Republican Party as well. Now they're all pretty much silenced and far-right nuts get more of the influence.
As times get harder and harder, I expect Israel --and other countries-- to start meshing ultra-right ideology and actions together. Fascism is attractive to those who only want power. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Makes sense, ty for the insight. Yeah of the very little Gallant has said that I have caught in the last months he seems more Gantz than Netanyahu. I also can understand why he cannot leave the cabinet too tho given his active role in the military rn. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |
Well he seems to agree with Gantz on the practicalities of Gaza even if he disagrees with Gantz on the politics of Israel | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-11-06 |

Even back in 2012 when I was in Europe visiting friends in France, Germany, and holland. They all had complaints about the people from North Africa and the Middle East who have been coming over. Hell I even saw it multiple times. Saw a group drunk at 11am throwing their empty bottles in the street. Saw them stealing bikes. Starting fights.
Like I am pro immigration and won’t judge someone on the color of their skin. But the culture they’re bringing to Europe and in an obscene amount is ridiculous and not sustainable | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

In the U.K., David Cameron made the incredibly ballsy gamble of offering a referendum on Scottish independence. And he (the unionists) won.
Emboldened by that victory which silenced the Scottish nationalists, and facing another threat from the far-right UKIP party, he proceeded to offer another referendum, this time on leaving the EU.
It went less well.

Are you equating getting some unspecified amount of funds from one source to being 100% accurately a puppet of that source? Do you realize every party gets funds from multiple sources, hundreds, even thousands ones?

>Cause more people than not successfully grasped the wider context of the comment chain and understands it was not a literal 1-to-1 comparison.
Fair enough. Still believe that most of you guys have no clue of french politics and how the Vth works.
This snap election is a wise move from Macron, because after this defeat he couldn't behave like it didn't happend and it would have weaken him nationaly and more importantly internationaly.
Overall would he win or loose that snap election, it's win for him because he gets his legitimacy back either way.
Also people who think that if RN actualy get prime minister they will be elected next presidential election, they should look at french history, not sure it ever happend once before.
Overall Lepen way more dangerous if she stays in opposition than if she actualy gets prime minister. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

This is what it looks like to me also.
At the moment, its a vote against Macron, not *for* Le Pen. If he waited and they get voted in later with more power, then things are truly fucked.
This way the people actually get to see that Le Pen is 100% not who they think she is. There will be damage, but minimal. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
Beats me, our parties in America have flipped for who they represent.

A lot of far right candidates e.g. geert wilder or Georgia Meloni are actually very pro ukraine so won't end support for ukraine.

Good luck getting the National Rally to advance policies such as raising the retirement age or instating unduly onerous carbon taxes on farmers.
If Macron does loose the lower house he will not be able to wriggle his way out of it. Either he cooperates with the National Front, or he'll be deadlocked for the rest of his term. Terribly unwise move by him in political terms, however socially and civically responsible as it may be. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
Truth be told, I legitimately don't give a fuck what some people want if it involves electing far right clowns.
As atrocious as this sentiment is 99% of the time, I sorta of feel like we have to save people in the far right from themselves. They don't seem to grasp how bad things could get if the far right gets enough power.
So either supporters of the far right are malicious and want something like a theocracy instead of democracy, or they are ignorant of the actual ramifications of voting for far right politicians. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

Macron is right-wing. Biden is (relative to Macron at least) left wing. Putting it into American terms, Macron is more similar to someone like Ronald Reagan.

There is of course the risk that this will lead more success to FN.
But, there is still the fact that pushing these parties to side doesn’t seem to work either, at least anymore, so many countries are unfortunately now at a situation where they need to force the hand of far right and their voters. Is it good for Europe? Hell no, but I think there aren’t that many options either.
In Finland we have an example with our The Finns party. Although I wouldn’t put them to same basket with FN or Afd, they are still a right wing populist party. Their first time in cabinet was in 2015 and it ended in a disaster where party split in two. They came back and are in the current cabinet and that is not smooth sailing either. Current government has made some unpopular austerity policies and their party is bearing the brunt of the support loss and this EU election was a complete disaster for them and they lost the other of the two seats they had from previous election.
I don’t mean that there is no reason to worry or that this is somehow a good thing. But it has been easy for them to gather support in opposition as you don’t need to face the consequences of actually making policies and governing. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

> Unfortunately, land can vote in the USA.
It's not even really a question of land, the main influence the EC has on the election outcome is the fact that it's winner take all at a state level (almost all the states, anyways, a few do proportional allocation) which essentially just introduces some random noise into the result determined by which states have the biggest population with the closest vote spread. You could have changed the outcome of the 2016 election just by moving, iirc, a few tens of thousands of democratic voters from a state like California to some of the bigger states that went to Trump by narrow margins | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

US is much more selective in their immigrant admissions. They also have fewer asylum seekers from ME than Europe. Since asylum seekers tend to be admitted based on need to escape conflict than economic criteria, they tend to be lower quality immigrants in terms of education, skill, secularism, which results in ethnic ghettos and low assimilation/benefit to host country. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

Not really.
The UK is being effected by the same global trends as the rest of Europe, low growth, economic stagnation, aging population and mass migration are the big issues here as well as France, Germany, Italy e.t.c
We're just responding differently to these issues, in part because of our party/election system.
Across most of Europe they have some form of proportional representation, in those systems it's easier for new parties to gain momentum. In the UK we are absolutely dominated by the big established parties and new ones really struggle to gain a meaningful foothold.
So people in the UK are really looking at this election as a fight between the incumbent Tory party, that has been in power during the largest increase in legal migration ever. Or the only real alternative party, Labour.
3rd parties are drawing a lot of votes away, especially on the right, and in fact we may see Farage and reform overtake the Tories in the polls soon, but it's unlikely they will win any seats. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |

Not really. What you have to understand is that whilst the members of the Conservative Party (and the country as a whole) are both pro-Brexit and conservative, the Conservative Members of Parliament are left of centre social democrats.
They've basically lied to the electorate and their party for the last 14 years, saying they would do one thing -lower taxes, reduce waste, deal with civil service corruption, reduce immigration, leave the EU- whilst doing the exact opposite.
And now they are reaping what they have sown. This will be the biggest collapse for the Conservatives in history. Labour are not winning, the British really don't want a socialist government -they have been a disaster every time, the Conservatives are losing. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
You're getting downvoted, but you're right. It's actually mind boggling how disconnected from reality people on Reddit are. It's like everyone on this website is a 17-year-old NCD circlejerker.

This is such a frustrating juncture because many who hold your political views think "I don't care if these views align with Russia, first and foremost they are my own core beliefs and I believe in them strongly," which is perfectly fine.
It's the way in which Russia has embedded itself so firmly in the right that conservative wins are certainly huge geopolitical wins for Russia. People can live with conservative leaders if that is what the majority desires, but not if it leads to geopolitical and domestic instability.
Further, much of the driving force behind what has pushed the right into more and more extreme views has been Russian influence; politically, monetarily, and yes.. through social media campaigns disguised as fellow countrymen. It's maddening to feel like your counterparts on the political spectrum are tabling ideas put forth by opportunistic foreign agents.
From the right we hear about the UN, NATO, WEF, WHO, etc. constantly as these villainous cabalistic dark shadow entities pulling strings to pervert the world towards their evil intentions.. but these are historically benevolent bodies that unite countries and support the common good of man. It's hard to see anyone who would try and tear down these bodies as anything but bad actors and those who have been duped by bad actors.
In contrast, the left constantly cautions against Russian interference and influence in geopolitics via far-right political movements which just isn't crazy because they literally wrote down the plan to do this and have been following it to a T since the 90s.
I don't hate or begrudge the right, honestly, I know for the vast majority of folks none of it is born in hate and instead comes from a genuine feeling of "this isn't working, something isn't right, the world is kind of going to shit, and we need to get back to basics before everything we love is taken from us." But when you read "Foundations of Geopolitics" and then look at the world today, it is hard to see anything but Russian fingerprints all over the world. And when you know how that story ends, it's hard to support anything coming from the right. | r/worldnews | comment | r/worldnews | 2024-10-06 |
