Everyday there is a tremendous amount of news in the world; some of these information is promoted by News Outlets and other Media outlets. But what are some smaller stories or lost perspectives in these stories?

War in Ukraine
Brazil Riots
Hong Kong Development
USA Cash Bail

There's a thread in resetera that actively follows the war in Ukraine. It is a good collection of info. No Russian bots.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/ru...-invasion-in-ukraine-read-staff-posts.556366/
The first week of the invasion was intense. Now I'm following an Australian YouTuber that specialises in economics power point, Perun.

Meanwhile, in my country forums, I see Russian bots actively push that Ukraine are Nazis and somehow Russia is defending itself by invading Ukraine. Already left that forum

as i understood, the concept was supposed to be that people speak on the international news that impact them directly.
For example - war in ukraine - shared perspective by ukrainian citizen.

etc. etc. if everyone starts sharing their news from whatever source then it becomes pointless

I did say it took me three times to understand it. Granted, I was sleep deprived, but don't underestimate my terrible reading comprehension.

After the impeachment of both the president Yoon (on 3rd) and acting president Han (on 27th), they decided to bring the Finance minister Choi Sang-Mok into the play and made him the new acting president on 28th and a plane crashed on 29th with reported fatalities of 179, things aren't exactly looking well.

Honestly thankyou, I was trying to look it up today and the new outlets hadn't been updated yet. Hopefully it stabilizes soon

About the brazil riots, they were mostly seem as a joke, since the participants were mainly old guys and weird people(a guy literally shitted on a justice minister room).
I believe now they are getting arrested, and there's a group of politicians wanting to give them amnesty.
A bit late to this, but this is roughly what happened, I just laughed the whole time as it was happening

As a Canadian and a Québécois, here's my take on the recent debacle with the USA:

Nah, we'd send a few pickup trucks of good ol' boys out from Montana and get Quebec straightened right out. Get English in as the official language along with a supply of apostrophes for Schwartz's to distribute, send the Habs down to the AHL so someone in Regina or Saskatoon can buy the rights to the Arizona franchise and reactivate it, and give a bunch of the folks from NYC and Boston someplace new to weekend. Guns for everyone. Cheeseburger poutine. You'll love it. :pepela:

You do realize the Canadians haven't changed / managed to erase us after all these years? What hope do you have? X) You're the same stock as them. You'll fold just as easily. Mwhahahaha.
