“WWIII May Be Closer Than We Realize”: 50 Dark World News People Should Know The wars in Ukraine and Palestine aren't the only wars happening. They're not even the deadliest conflicts. According to the Geneva Academy, there are currently 110 armed conflicts worldwide. Five of the current conflicts are classified as major wars (over 10,000 combat-related deaths), 17 are wars (9,999 - 1,000 deaths), and an additional 18 are minor wars (999 - 100 deaths). Even more surprising is that the most violent war isn't in Ukraine or Palestine...it's in Myanmar. People generally don't realize how much fighting is happening across the world.

United States is currently directly involved in a lot of conflicts( Cameroon, Libya, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Somalia, Iraq, Palestine) and indirectly involved in the South American, Asian & other African conflicts. If there is a war going on, US is definitely involved directly or through proxy.

If reading through this left you with a sense of dread, it’s also important to note that, for better or worse, the current era isn’t necessarily worse and is, indeed, probably quite a bit better than the past. After all, reporters and news providers love to share the horrors of the world with us. So after reading all of the ideas here, it can be comforting to turn to a more sober analysis.

American historian Barbara W. Tuchman wrote that “Disaster is rarely as pervasive as it seems from recorded accounts. The fact of being on the record makes it appear continuous and ubiquitous whereas it is more likely to have been sporadic both in time and place. Besides, persistence of the normal is usually greater than the effect of the disturbance, as we know from our own times. After absorbing the news of today, one expects to face a world consisting entirely of strikes, crimes, power failures, broken water mains, stalled trains, school shutdowns, muggers, drug addicts, neo-Nazis, and rapists.”

Can't reply directly to TotallyNOTAFox. They don't deserve a downvote. People need to stop being hypocritical about butting in on other cultures. I get that you don't like it, neither do I. But it's not my country and I don't make the rules there. If you believe that other countries should be able to decide the laws that apply then you need to realise that the US is a minority worldwide so your laws would be decided by worldwide majority so you'd run the risk of them being dictated by the billion Chinese or Indians. Many Americans hate it when people call them idiots for their attitude towards guns. Guess what, it's the same scenario.

In my home state of NC, should we be shocked? Brought to you by the state that tried to start a war with the Feds over bathrooms, I bring you illegal to cross dress in public places where minors might be. In other words, everywhere. And if your body isn’t naturally gender identifying, you prefer certain hair styles over others, you are at risk of Karen kicking down your bathroom stall door and demanding to see what you’re packing below the belt and your bc. Cuz we don’t want no trans woman in the (with stalls) bathroom with our daughters so we are going to send them to the (frequently without stalls or sometimes doors) men’s room to tinkle with our sons? Have mercy please. Unisex bathrooms, only way to go. This country may not impose life or death sentences but we are far from comp decriminalized.

The "domestic worker" trade where they bring mostly women from African countries like Ghana, Kenya, etc. and send them to countries in the Middle East to work. Unfortunately they are treated like slaves, not people. No phones, no going out, no set work hours, domestic violence, rape, and humiliation. Oh, and their salaries are about $200 - $300 a month.

I am Lebanese. I have seen atrocities committed against these women. They are already deemed "suspicious" before they even step foot in the country because "they learn everything before they come" and their employers think their sole purpose is to come and scam them. They rely on them for childcare, cleaning, taking care of the elderly, etc.

They used to do it to Indians and Sri Lankan women so they stopped coming to Lebanon. Then they moved to Philippino women who also stopped coming. Now it's women from African countries.

There's an even worse one than domestic workers. It's actual sex workers from Eastern Europe. They are brought to Lebanon to work as sex workers and stay holed up in a hotel. They "perform" in a night club and men come, buy a bottle, and get to sit with her until closing time. The next day, he goes to the hotel where she lives and he takes her out to sleep with and brings her back. She is not allowed to go out, not allowed to do anything really except serve customers and stay in the hotel. Many of these women think they are coming to Lebanon to be artists and dancers. Nope. They're sex workers and many of them are humiliated and treated terribly.

Oh, and both groups get their passports confiscated so that they don't run away.

Now, there are of course exceptions. Some of these women are happy, some are treated well, some have many privileges. But the vast majority are not treated that way.

Then you have the Syrian and Iraqi sex workers. Those are heartbreaking. Since they are not white or blonde and extremely poor they are dealing with the poorest men in society. And the ones who treat them like animals. Girls as young as 9 are trafficked. And nobody bats an eye.

My mom's first symptom of COVID was chest pain, and she caught it just as the first mask mandates were announced. She was sick for two months, and eventually had to have heart surgery because it damaged her heart. She recovered her sense of taste and smell after about a year and a half. But four years later, she still struggles with brain fog, fatigue, and having weak mucus membranes (I don't know how else to put it - her sinuses and gastrointestinal tract spontaneously get inflamed and react to seemingly random things. It's really painful and frustrating for her). COVID also took away her ability to process text - she can no longer read upside down, in foreign languages, or quickly enough to read subtitles. She texted me a pic of a car the other day because the font made her unable to read what type of car it was, and she was so frustrated with herself she was crying on the phone when I called her back to read it for her.

So, A LOT of people don't pay much attention to their local, or even state elections. That is sad, but I don't know if I would call it dark...

What is dark are the implications.

Ohio congressional maps are drawn every 10 years. That would make the old maps drawn in 2012 up for redrawing in 2022.

In 2019 those maps were ruled ILLEGAL by a federal judge, because they were obviously gerrymandered in favor of republicans.

So what did the Ohio, GOP run government, who came into power because of those illegal congressional maps do? What they did was say "f**k it, stall until after the next state elections,"

Which they f*****g did, with zero consequences.

And then what did they do?

They tried to change the voter veto % from 50% to 60% to keep the power they already had, and remember, this from a state that *has already been illegally cutting the state into pieces that serve them FOR A DECADE*

In the US, at least, EMS is on the verge of collapse. I work in a major city and it’s not uncommon for certain jobs to be holding for 3+ hours.

A whole lot of people left during Covid, and EMS was circling the drain in 2018. The low pay, s****y management, wide lack of unions, lack of career mobility, and constant crush of going on to the next call with no time to eat or p**s are starting to come home to roost.

Police and fire fighters are deemed as “necessary” for the government to provide in most places in the US. EMS isn’t, which means there are a lot of shady private companies that step in to fill the void. Medicare fraud abounds.

The average length of career in EMS is 3 years. The average length of career in ems where someone would be deemed a competent provider is 3-5 years.

You do the math. If you live in the United States, know that every statistic your county/city provides is a horribly cooked number, and if you go into cardiac arrest outside a hospital, there’s a 90+ percent chance you’ll stay that way. 99%+ chance you’ll not stay that way without major life altering changes e.g. brain damage.

This is all because people in power refuse to fund it. That’s it. The sole reason that you will have decades less with your family members or that you’ll not live for extra years is that people
Balk at paying an unnoticeable extra amount of taxes (while ultimately saving money by not paying for private health insurance).

WWIII may be closer than we realise, or it is already underway.

NATO's top military advisor has just warned people to prepare and have the basic necessities in case of an attack. This was in response to people panic buying radios in Sweden, one of the world's most advanced and safest countries.

The German government said that war was possible in the near future.

Baltic countries,NATO members, have been openly threatened.

This is not normal, yet people don't know about it and / or act as if it's hyperbole.

Let's hope cool minds prevail as Einstein once said that WWIII would be fought with nukes and WWIV would be fought with sticks and stones.

The offensive took place in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh, which is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, but populated by Armenians."

I work in a court house. In my city they were still evicting a s**t ton of people during the pandemic. HUD had already issued their eviction moratorium. I was so concerned what was happening. Then the governor issued the project room key for homeless to get a hotel. And i would refer people to their office. They would call me back saying "They(the employees) have no idea what that is". I sent an email to HUD about these issues. Nothing happened. I things are still like this. I'd tell people and they look at me like I'm some crazy left leaning liberal. I'm not but this is so wrong. Then I saw a guy on Joe organs podcast talking about a city employee whose job it is to end homelessness. And her salary was 200k. Yea...

Alas the project room key received a 150million budget.
59 million was spent.

Due to low childbirth, in most of the developed world, number of pensioners goes up while number of economically active young people goes down. Which means that social systems in many countries (Germany, Japan, much of western Europe in general) will collapse like house of cards in this century.

In India Between 2018 and 2021, 222 elephants were killed by electrocution across the country, 45 by trains, 29 by poachers and 11 by poisoning.

Among human casualties elephants killed 585 in 2019-20, 461 in 2020-21, and 533 in 2021-22.

India is home to the world's largest population of Asian elephants, a species listed as endangered, with declining populations across its home range of 13 countries.

India has over 100 national parks and around 30 elephant reserves, but many of India's 30,000(according to 2017 census by Project Elephant) elephants live outside these protected areas and have less and less habitat to roam in search of food.

Haiti. Just all of it. There's a whole history of how France (with help from the US) single handedly bankrupted them over 100 years all because of a slave rebellion they were angry about. Deforestation means they have less trees that help protect from things like hurricanes, which means crops get destroyed. It's completely lawless and basically uninhabitable because of multiple issues that ultimately stem from being stepped on by wealthier nations over the last two centuries. It's really easy to just write them off but the conditions over there are absolutely horrific. The people there are starving to death, people literally get shot by snipers when they walk out of their homes. Public services have failed, and so there's hardly any power or infrastructure and nowhere for waste to go. I didn't even know about this until recently. It made me cry. Nobody even seems to know or care about it.

And on top of that the country was devastated by the 2010 earthquake. At least 100,000 people died, and possibly as many as 316,000. The country hasn't recovered from the devastation.

I don't honestly think things are 'any' worse (they've always been bad). It's just that we are 'more' aware of them because we can access global issues.

We are bombarded with global and RARELY here about local news. Why? Because bad news sells and sensationlistic news sells even more.
