With the current covid situation in India, could we see an increase in singular global governance under the premise that if covid is still ravaging one part of the globe then we're all at risk since this virus can mutate and spread across country lines?

We already have the WHO
It was China who lied about the virus and let it spread in the first place and they told the WHO to kick rocks

I typed in Rural Colorado United into Google News to see more on the Boebert prank and ran into this instead. 
7 Arrested After Mummified Cult Leader's Remains Found In Rural Colorado Home
DENVER ― Seven members of a cult-like group known as Love Has Won have been arrested on charges of abusing a corpse and child abuse after mummified remains believed to be their leader’s were found in a home in rural southern Colorado.
Saguache County sheriff’s deputies found the decomposed body of a female they suspected was that of group leader Amy Carlson in the back room of a residence in Moffat, Colorado, last Wednesday.
The remains were wrapped in “what appears to be” a sleeping bag and decorated with Christmas tree lights in what resembled “some type of shrine” visible from other parts of the house, a sheriff’s corporal said in an arrest warrant affidavit. Glitter makeup had been applied around the corpse’s eyes, which were described by a witness as “glazed over or missing.”
Deputies also found a 13-year-old girl and 2-year-old boy in the house. Both appeared to be in good health, according to the affidavit.
“The Saguache County Sheriff’s Office has received many complaints from families within the United States saying that the group is brainwashing people and stealing their money,” the sheriff’s corporal wrote in the document. “Ms. Carlson is believed to be the leader of ‘Love has Won’ and goes by the name ‘Mother God.’”
The death was reported to authorities by a follower of Love Has Won named Miguel Lamboy. He told police in nearby Salida, Colorado, that other members of the group brought the corpse into his residence after they said they needed a place to stay. Lamboy allowed them in and left to run errands, discovering the mummified remains in the back bedroom when he returned later that day.
Those arrested ranged in age from 32 to 52. They were held in Rio Grande County jail on charges of abuse of a corpse and two counts of child abuse.
In 2020, Love Has Won attempted to relocate to the Hawaiian island of Kauai before residents rebuffed them. Here’s how an investigation by the Honolulu Civil Beat summarized the group’s difficult-to-follow beliefs at the time:

The cult describes itself as having roots in beliefs in Lemuria, a mythical lost continent whose contemporary followers believe Lemurian descendants may still reside within Mt. Shasta.
In a transcript of one of [Love Has Won’s] YouTube videos, a woman who identified herself as Lauren Suarez says that Carlson “was queen of Lemuria and Donald Trump was mom’s father in Lemuria.”

Literally everything the gospels say about rich people and money is true.
I’m 49, my wife is 34, we have 4 kids and $2.3 million saved. I earn $300K a year but ‘lose a lot of sleep worrying about tomorrow’ — when can I retire?

I think all news reporting has some bias. So I try to read at least two or three interpretations of any story I really care about and when primary resources are available, I'll usually try to take a look at those too. So if there's a report about a study saying something, then I'll pull up the study and try peruse it (it helps that I work for an academic library so I have a access to virtually everything pretty easily).

Nope. They just want to virtue signal and feel morally superior.I wonder if some of these bleeding hearts put their money or time where all their altruistic ideals and mouths are
Does anyone listen to the Lex Fridman podcast? Seriously one of the most enlightening podcasts with such a diverse range of guests. I just listened to the episode with Kelsi Sheren who was in the Canadian Military and served in Afghanistan. Absolutely heart breaking episode. War is so fukked up and the way we treat veterans when they come home is disgusting. It brought me to tears. Can't believe she even has the strength to speak without breaking about the things she saw. Collecting pieces of a friend after they got blown up by an IED...jesus fukk.
I feel like we're so insulated from War that a huge percentage of the population can't even grasp the horror of it. Just pawns, disposable objects in politicians and world leaders power games.

i don't know how one can't be apathetic to politics in this country. it aint even about the actual politician in office or how blue/red they are, the whole construct of our legislative and judicial arms is just completely outdated and broken for modern america and neither politicians nor citizens (mah history, mah traditions aka don't know shyt about civics/govt) care to change anything.
