Taiwan will hold local elections on November 26. The combination of an increase in continental pressure on several fronts and the hypothetical exaggeration of the threat by the US could lead to the sentiment of the Taiwanese that the possibility of a conflict is not remote but real, contrary to what they imagined until now.
The man eats the grass
the donkey the candies
The granddaughter sends the grandfather
And the jack to the king of clubs.

We live in the upside down world that Violeta Parra sang about and that Eduardo Galeano also described. What is new is that now that planet upside down is told to you daily by the big media and broadcast on television.

We are witnessing a terrifying world drift. The non-acceptance by the United States of its decline as a global hegemonic power is stressing the planet to unimaginable extremes. The so-called “Thucydides trap”, which describes the tendency for a hegemonic power to go to war when threatened by an emerging one, is fully unfolding before our eyes with all its devastating consequences. The hegemon, who considers himself threatened, displays his most sinister face both internally and externally: censorship, suffocating manipulation of media messages, single discourse, maximum use of fear as a political weapon.
