What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.


Rules

1. English onlyTitle and associated content has to be in English.
2. No social media postsAvoid all social media posts. Try searching for a source that has a written article or transcription on the subject.

4. InclusivityEveryone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
5. Ad hominem attacksAny kind of personal attacks are expressly forbidden. If you can't argue your position without attacking a person's character, you already lost the argument.

Yet they remain stumped when you bring up the fact that their bunker will degrade and there won’t be parts to replace what is broken nor engineers/technicians that will fix them nor what are they going to pay their security guards to ensure they won’t just take their shit and you know, murder them when push comes to shove.

Bunkers and tac vehicles? Sounds like a rare loot crate!

Hmm so placing shock collars on your guards isn't the best idea? 🤔

Yep and they live in easy to get places like jackson hole, landers/pioneertown, hawaii, new zealand, Maine, NH, and more!

We should make a map so we all know where to go IF shit gets worse.
