”海田副議長の自宅近くで体重284キロのクマが捕獲されたのは、先月27日。
このクマの駆除をめぐり、地元の猟友会と副議長がトラブルに発展となりました。
関係者によりますと、到着した猟友会のハンターが、現場にいた副議長に声を掛けたといいます。
「誰ですか」
副議長と面識のなかったハンター。
これに対し。
「誰にモノを言ってるか」
現場にはクマの駆除や運び出しのため、10人ほどのハンターが集まり、副議長に安全のため現場から離れるよう促します。
しかし、副議長は応じず、このように話したといいます。
「こんなに人数が必要なのか。金もらえるからだろ。俺にそんなことするなら駆除もさせないようにするし、議会で予算も減らすからな。辞めさせてやる」
このトラブルの後、一部のハンターから「駆除をやりたくない」という声があがったことから、猟友会は町からの出動要請に応じないことを決めました。”

La nuova Wikipedia di Musk è terribile
dalla newsletter Edamame: maranga9000.substack.com/p/la-…
Elon Musk ha deciso che “la verità” aveva bisogno di un rebranding.Fin dalle prime ore, molti articoli sono risultati copiati quasi integralmente da Wikipedia, ma privi di quell’ecosistema di revisione comunitaria che permette di correggere errori e bias nel tempo.
Nella voce dedicata a George Floyd, il primo paragrafo non racconta che Floyd è stato ucciso da un agente di polizia, ma si concentra sul suo passato penale, sulle droghe, sui referti tossicologici. Solo dopo, in fondo, viene menzionato l’omicidio.
È un’inversione narrativa potente: sposta l’attenzione dal crimine subito al profilo morale della vittima. Non nega i fatti, ma ne modifica la cornice, suggerendo che forse “non era proprio un innocente”.

The image depicts a serene landscape featuring a body of water reflecting the surrounding trees and sky. A forest of tall trees lines the water's edge, with their reflections clearly visible in the calm surface. The sky above is a mix of blue and grey clouds, creating a dynamic backdrop. A fallen log lies partially submerged in the water, adding a natural element to the scene. The overall impression is one of tranquility and natural beauty, with the reflection emphasizing the symmetry and balance of the composition. There is no visible text in the image.

Ritual bell, anonymous, after -482
This bell once formed part of a large set attached to a wooden frame by their dragon handles. Two separate tones could be produced by striking the bell in two different places – in the middle and at an angle on the side. The knobs are decorated with a beast restraining a bird. The meaning of this motif is not clear.

I think Hartmann may be onto something here: hartmannreport.com/p/is-the-al…
When you combine the "algorithm" with the fact that once-trusted news outlets (like CBS) look fair as ever but are rotten behind the facade, it goes a long way toward explaining the anger and polarization that's going on.

Dead Rivers and Vanishing Villages: China’s Rush for Serbia’s Minerals
cross-posted from: lemmy.sdf.org/post/44906060
Archived[...]
In 2018, Serbia chose the Chinese Zijin Mining Group as its strategic partner, and the mining giant took over 63 per cent of RTB [a Serbian mining company that was formerly 100% state-owned].
[...]
Since 2018, Zijin has taken over the Bor [a city in Serbia] mining complex and invested 2.3 billion euros to expand operations. This enlargement is not just industrial – it is reshaping the landscape and the lives of local communities. Entire families are witnessing their homes, land, and memories vanish as the mine swallows settlements. Meanwhile, the Serbian government has offered no real options for resettlement.
[...]
The environmental consequences of the mining rush are also severe: forests, rivers, and wildlife have been devastated, and residents breathe some of the most polluted air in Europe.
[...]
The Borska Reka River is one of the most polluted waterways in Europe. [...] Sediment analysis has shown high concentrations of copper, arsenic, and nickel, exceeding remediation thresholds, particularly near mining areas. As a result, the Borska Reka is considered a “dead river,” devoid of aquatic life, with severe environmental impacts that extend to the Danube via the Timok.
[...]
The fact that Chinese contractors were responsible for renovating the canopy in Novi Sad’s rail station – which later collapsed, killing 16 people and sparking the largest protests in Serbia’s history – only adds to the complexity of China’s presence in Serbia. In [the cities of] Bor and Majdanpek, this engagement is at the same time both significant and invisible. Thousands of workers brought from China live in isolated camps, rarely interacting with the local population.
[...]
Although Chinese presence is barely visible in the city –Chinese workers live in camps inside the mining complexes, which are inaccessible to the local population – several Chinese-operated betting shops have opened in recent years. These venues signage in Chinese and are intended to attract company managers and senior staff, who are allowed to leave the camps, unlike the regular workers from China.
[...]
While [Serbian] president Aleksandar Vučić’s authoritarian government claims lithium extraction would respect strict environmental norms, the experience of local communities in [the cities of] Bor and Majdanpek tells a different story.
[...]
A report published in January 2024 revealed frequent spikes of sulphur dioxide (SO2) in the Bor area, responsible for both acute and chronic respiratory problems as well as acid rain. The study also detected PM10 fine particles containing heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, nickel, and arsenic. Despite the proven adverse effects of mining, no systematic assessment of public health has been carried out since Zijin took over operations. However, the Batut Institute of Public Health has published a study showing an increased mortality risk for both men and women in Bor across all age groups.
