point to the obvious main vector for #wildfires: #climateChange
but thereβs some like @theconversationes@newsie.social that go into more specifics: the abandonment of rural economies.

and those rural areas have been controlled by the largest conservative party in the country, which is why their opposition have started to point fingers to them:

BTW southern #Europe is being consumed by #wildfires #incendies #incendios this summer.
France has seen more than 17,000 hectares of forest go up in flames in the #Aude region. thatβs basically the size of Brooklyn turned to ashes:

due to #wildfires raging across Europe, people had to evacuate Burrolandia, a sanctuary for burros & other equines. itβs also a farm, so they left all the animals out of their stalls. when they came back, they found the burros had organized all the animals in the middle of the farm to avoid the fires & smoke that luckily stopped meters away from the property.

EDIT: adding the video for posterity
Gavin Newsom is still a corporatist, transphobic, fascist-lite βbillionaireβ bootlicker
as long as Jack Dorsey was involved in the creation of #Bluesky, IDGAF who runs it, it still will be the kindler, gentler nazi barβ¦ and if you remember the biggest fascist who came up with that βkindler, gentlerβ bullshit, then you know what i mean.

WE NEED TO REFRAME βDATAβ
itβs intentionally used to dehumanize and alienate us from our personal stories and histories, ie:
β No one should profit from our personal dΜΆaΜΆtΜΆaΜΆ stories and histories, especially without our consent,β EFFβs Lena Cohen told KATU News. βThe dΜΆaΜΆtΜΆaΜΆ PERSONAL HISTORY broker industry is extremely opaque, and the lack of transparency makes it hard to know when WE & OUR LIFE STORIES ARE SOLD AS DATA PRODUCTS and our privacy rights are being violated.β

βThis will be a feel-out meetingβ [β¦] Trump to a reporterβs question, adding that heβll tell the Russian president βyou gotta end this warβ and βthereβll be some land-swapping going on.β
https://journa.host/@w7voa/115010886169191980
remember when i told yβall to take the #Canada #Greenland #Iceland statehood threats seriously?
Americans and the world need to treat this meeting as a conspiracy. Trump would absolutely offer #Alaska territory to entice Putin into an Artic takeover of Canadian and Scandinavian lands.
#Putin and #Netanyahu are working for the same capitalist interests. there will be no end to either of these wars until the world βde-billionairesβ those 3,000 taking hostage the world.
they have no use for nation-states when they have become the state by creating a whole class of corruptocrats that give them access to the militaries they need to subjugate us billions.
take out Putin
take out Netanyahu
take out Trump
but youβll need to deal with the 3,000 financing their mayhem.
