Thousands died this year in battles in Myanmar, just this year more than 10,000 yikes! But hardly any fuss in the news?

A battle in October was covered locally. a hospital bombing made news with a justification, which we can contrast, to the style in reports, when Israel gets accused of same or similar "war crimes".

Did you know about this major war, killing just this year, thousands? And why no fuss? Doesn't fit agendas?

If democrats wanted to send money maybe we would hear about it?

Which side should u. s. Fund and support?

It says lots and lots of things.

I had this discussion with my girlfriend and she said me and my family don't love each other because we rather spend time with each other and do things than give presents? We are all grown and literally have everything we want. So we rather just spend quality time together. She and her aunts always get each other gifts to show love i guess. But I dont think no on is right or wrong. What do you guys think? Is Christmas about presents , quality time and love. Both or something else?

Typical Americans, claiming to hold records they don't hold

I believe so, much more like a techno-dystopia.

We are in an era where we cannot afford homes and struggle to attain even the basic essentials, but we can manage to have smartphones and tech in which our eyes are glued to all day, tuning out what is going on around us.

Many of us are over-worked, picking up entry-level jobs because the middle class is being decimated. Once the beacon of prosperity and advancement is becoming no more. The rungs on the ladder of success and growth are becoming much wider apart.

Meanwhile, the predatory push for the "Own nothing; be 'Happy'" approach continues to thrive, and as people are being scattered everywhere, homeownership becomes more out of reach and land continues to be grabbed up to build high-density apartment rentals.

People have become cold, anti-social, and hostile in public, especially on the roads where it is a war zone. Loneliness and isolation are becoming the norm. Men have become emasculated and testosterone levels are plummeting.

The air is becoming more flat and thin. The big pollinators, the bees, are dying off, and the foliage looks less lush.

We are in the midst of a volunteer firefighter shortage, and as most of the fire departments in the US are volunteer-run with a rise of emergency calls that have tripled, our public safety infrastructure is crumbling. There is less optimism and motivation of generosity to help each other.

The government is out to serve themselves and their special interest groups, while ignoring the needs of the people overall. The government spies on their own citizens and doesn't want us to have individuality or autonomy. The greatest threat to them is living off grid, free of bureaucracy and control. They want you to be their sheep.
