WTF is going on in the Ukraine?
the US press is rejoicing that (presumably Ukrainian) drones are bombing Moscow.
uh, isn't this excalation? And if the drones were provided by the USA, isn't this essentially an act of war by NATO against Russia?
But the possibility of a nuclear accident in that area might be the real danger. Russia is in control of Ukraine nuclear plants, but if one was destroyed (by Russia in revenge, by the Ukraine in a false flag incident, or because of an accident/carelessness), well, that could be a bit of a problem for Europe.
I am old enough to remember Chrernobyl, and so is Dr. C. who now risks being banned by Youtube etc. for mentioning it could be a problem.
Dr. C reports from a public health standpoint: Buy Iodine tablets.
and there are rumors in pro Russian blogs that there could be a release of pathogens from those US funded biolabs in the Ukraine. (is this true, or just a threat, or propaganda to cover a release of biological weapons by Russia).
the only good news coming out is that the agreement to let the wheat from the Ukraine be exported might continue. This wheat feeds people in the Middle East.

In other news: Anti religion actions in China that is usually ignored by the MSM in the USA.
here is the China show about how China is erasing Islam. Note: There are two major Muslim groups there: one is the Uighars, a Turkish ethnic group, where a genocidal fight against them is going on with little notice (except that the propaganda film by disney, Mulan, that was made with the help of the guys jailing the Uighars).
But there is another Muslim group: the descendents of the Muslim traders who married local girls, and they are called Han Muslims.
Well, now the China show reports that this group is being erased too, and there have been riots against it. (first half hour in the video discusses this; the rest is about AI and propaganda methods in general)>
China has already arrested now retired Cardinal Zen for helping pro democracy demonstrators who were arrested, withoug any complaints by the present guy who is pope, while the new Cardinal of Hong Kong actually defends the take over of the church there. (letting the government chose bishops and then the Vatican has permission to approve which ones they want... except now the Chinese government is appointing bishops without bothering to ask the Vatican).
what can go wrong?
The question behind this is if the church is a puppet of the state, or should be independent of the state (Separation of church and state, Render to Caeser the things that are Caesar) Pope Gregory VII fought against this, and it is the reason that Thomas Beckett was killed, and later was the reason that the Pope refused to let Henry VIII run the church. So it's not like the Catholics are not aware of the problem.
for background, you have to realize that religion has been seen as a danger to the state for a long time... not just Christians, but Buddhists, Muslims, and various sects. Lots of rebellions were inspired by religion, (the Taiping rebellion killed as many people as World War I) so they do have a reason to see religion as a source of independent thought that can endanger the emperor.

finally, the US and the multinational corporations are increasing their push to have other countries normalize the gender/promiscuity is good for you agenda.
Well, now multinationa corporations are pushing gay themed commercials in Asia. Not much of an outcry yet, but give them time.
This does not make the USA popular in societies that recognize traditional laws that protect the family, which in poorer countries is the main protection of the sick, the poor, women and children.
One example of pushback against what is seen as western imperialism is the passing of an over the top law outlawing homosexual acts in Uganda. Biden is threatening that country for doing this, because unlike Iran or Saudi, Uganda is a weak country. But don't ask about the cultural reasons of why that country did it.
Gays (and trans) in much of Africa, like Gays here, often are married with kids and are part of the family. Their proclivaties are not approved of, but hey they are family, and the fact they are baclas or tomboys or gays doesn't change that: because tolerating them does not threaten the instution of the family.
But the US, the EU, and now the multinational corporations have started to push perversion as normal and good and teaching this to young children instead of teaching the morality of their parents religious beliefs. And much of this hints that normal people are bad, biology is unimportant, and that families are bad because traditional families are supported by the idea of the yin/yang of sexuality.
But the disgust of this type of gay activity is easier to understand if you know the history of Africa: Slave trade, POW rape, sexual abuse of employees and students....So what the average American sees as a human right issue is seen as removing laws that protect people who lack power, and a way to allow sexual abuse of children/students/employees or the exploitation of street kids by sexual tourists or rich expats.
And anyone reading the MSM from the USA can see how quickly the "let gays marry in peace" idea has evolved to pushing trans to first graders as normal, and not just denying there is a difference between men and women, but denying that there is any reality in the link between biological sex and marriage and children. (trans is about one's desires, not about living peacefully in a family, as was the argument for gay marriage)... ...update:V

finally, I didn't watch it, but the miniseries Mrs Davis posits a world where AI (the computer Mrs Davis) controls everyone and makes them happy. The plot, which is a fantasy about the grail, is nonsense, but the world of peace with everyone hooked into AI echoes what some people are worried about.
Some crazy sites are proposing AI is the new anti christ, or the beast that can talk (something about this in the Bible if I remember correctly).
Elon Musk is worried about it LINK.. like most new inventions, it mixes good and bad depending on who is in control.
Sigh.
