Fine but lately I have been worried that people are crazy or the news I get are fake because I can't understand that in 2024, some countries are still warring to the point that people speak loosely about their nuclear arsenal and nuclear options (French media). While deaths could be averted so easily if this is merely a territory issue. There has to be some meta-level concerns. Politics is really strange. Are they playing poker or is this some obscure stuff going on? Oh I could ramble on people playing the geo-positioning game in Africa too for instance but that existed before I was born and as stupid as I think it may be... They are still trying to do it for some reason. French specificity I guess nowadays because what the goal of the presence near Australia... I mean if some people reproach to Putin that he has views on part of the Ukrainian territory, assuredly, they can't be claiming to still have views on New Caledonia, or Chad, or elsewhere(they call these interests, whatever that means, probably minus the people) etc. Am I misunderstanding something? Doesn't seem very democratic to me... Just wondering if this is intellectual laziness and lack of EQ that make them take the wrong decisions each time or whether there is something else, perhaps at the brain level? Even "real" news are weird. (I had deactivated fb back in 2012 or so, therefore can't be that :o) (sorry if I hold people to a higher standard than they are able to. I have my reasons :)
