Mislim da nema potpunog prevoda te reči, ali "zatvoren" može da se koristi za pojedinca koji nerado deli svoj unutrašnji svet, potom može se reći da neko ima uskogrude poglede ako su mu "insular views", a insular community može biti izolovana zajednica.

Još je Miljenko Smoje govorio o „tužnoj dalmatinskoj jeseni“ kad u Dalmaciji nakon ljetne vedrine i sunca počinju jesenska studen i kiša. Što biva s otocima i u malim mistima, kad ujesen ostanu sami sa sobom, a počne „drugo od samo dva godišnja doba – duga, iznurujuća, depresivna zima“, pita uvijek inspirativan Jurica Pavičić? Što biva s gradom Hvarom, umornim od ljetne vreve i eksplozije ljudi, sunca, mirisa i šušura kad krajem listopada odu i posljednji gosti, vikendaši se vrate kući, zatvore se hoteli i privatni apartmani, a fatalna smjena godišnjih doba najavi otočku zimu? Zimu koja tu nije samo klimatološka, vremenski omeđena sezona (siječanj-ožujak) već metafora života u malom otočkom gradu izvan turističke sezone. Ona upućuje na slike praznine, nerada, depresivne dosade, mirovanja, izoliranosti i čekanja, u doba kad rijedak ritam vapora (danas katamarana) još više potcrtava insularnost grada i njegovih stanovnika. Pavičić je opisao insularnost kao svijest „kako je taj komad kopna okružen vodom izmješten od stvarnog života, a da je zbiljski, autentični život negdje drugdje, tamo preko kanala, gdje po noći treperi najbliži grad… To je iskustvo inzularnost: osjećaj da je puni život nešto nedohvatljivo, odgođeno, nešto od čega nas uvijek dijeli još jedan kanal.“ Toj otočkoj samopercepciji komplementarna je kopnena percepcija otoka kao „zemlje osuđene na vječnu usamljenost”, zatvorene i okrenute u sebe (Joško Božanić).

Re: USA - США - SAD
Apropo SBF-a:
Ali kakva kripto govna:According to a newly released memo, the disgraced owner of the crypto trading platform FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, planned to buy the remote Pacific island nation of Nauru (which has 12,000 people living on it currently) to build an apocalypse bunker for himself and his clique of billionaire benefactors. Bankman-Fried, who was arrested earlier this year for allegedly stealing oodles of money from his customers, wanted this shelter to be used in “some event where 50-99.99% of people die” to “ensure that most [effective altruists] survive.”
At the same time, a Delaware-based company called Próspera is suing the government of Honduras for ending a policy that gives American companies sovereignty over portions of the country through what were called “Economic Development & Employment Zones.” The company, with backing from Silicon Valley vampires like Peter Thiel and Marc Andreessen, was in the process of using this trade agreement to build an autonomous tax-free, libertarian city-state, which would use Bitcoin as legal tender (much like the Ayn Rand-inspired “Galt’s Gulch” experiment in Chile, which collapsed hilariously a few years ago). In the process, they would be pushing out the indigenous people who live on the island of Routan, where the construction of the colony was underway.

Investors took comfort in the latest GDP figures because it means the Fed’s aggressive tightening campaign hasn’t thrown the economy into a downturn just yet.
“Thursday’s better-than-expected second-quarter GDP print is supportive of the soft landing scenario, as it’s clear that the Federal Reserve has yet to cause a recession even after its many rate hikes over the past year, and inflation is coming down, which is the exact outcome investors were hoping for,” wrote Carol Schleif, chief investment officer at BMO Family Office, in an analyst note.
American consumers and businesses are indeed feeling much better about the economy and the potential for inflation to come down to a level they’re familiar with. Investors have also grown bullish about the Fed’s chances of pulling off a soft landing, a scenario in which inflation comes back down to the 2% target without a recession, and they’re even confident the Fed is done raising rates.

Muslims vs. Democrats: A Story of Betrayal
Hamtramck, Mich., a Detroit enclave with 28,000 people, has the first all-Muslim City Council in American history. When it was inaugurated in January 2022, no one expected it to get crosswise with local Democrats. Yet local liberals have erupted against the council in a clash that is a microcosm of the national battle over religious freedom, tolerance, and the future of the Democratic Party.
The council passed a resolution in June prohibiting gay-pride flags from being displayed on city property. Former Mayor Karen Majewski described the decision as a “betrayal.” She and other Democrats felt they deserved gratitude for defending and supporting Muslims against Donald Trump’s travel ban on some Muslim-majority countries.
The Trump era brought major gains for American Muslims. After Barack Obama largely kept them at arm’s length during his presidency, the Democratic Party embraced Muslims as a core constituency in its patchwork coalition of minority groups. For a time, being loudly and ostentatiously pro-Muslim was a reliable way to signal one’s anti-Trump bona fides. According to a 2016 survey by my Brookings Institution colleague Shibley Telhami, few things predicted partisan affiliation more accurately than attitudes toward Muslims and Islam.
But Muslims who were brought into the Democratic tent didn’t necessarily align themselves with the party’s evolving views. Asma Uddin, in her book “When Islam Is Not a Religion,” describes “a tacit agreement that Muslims, as religious believers, will never challenge any of the rights championed by the Left, such as a progressive vision of gender or sexual equality.” Muslims became an integral part of the party not as a faith community with distinct theological commitments but as a “marginalized” group requiring protection from Republican bigotry.
For a time the bargain appeared to be holding and even solidifying. According to a Pew Research Center survey, in 2007 only 27% of American Muslims said homosexuality should be “accepted by society.” By 2016 that number had jumped to 52%. Many Muslims justified the shift by arguing that while same-sex relationships may be haram—forbidden by Islamic law—they weren’t so under American law.
But during the Trump years, the Democratic Party veered sharply to the left on social and cultural issues. The Republican Party lost interest in Muslims, with Mr. Trump neglecting to antagonize them during his 2020 re-election bid. The new enemy was “wokeness,” and a growing number of Muslims found themselves on the GOP side of that divide. According to the AP VoteCast Survey, as many as 35% of Muslims voted for Mr. Trump in 2020, compared with 8% to 13% in 2016.
The Democratic Party’s cultural turn has intensified. In March the Montgomery County Board of Education—the largest school district in Maryland, in a Democratic stronghold with a significant Muslim population—informed parents that they would no longer be notified when their children were reading from the school’s approved “selection of over 22 LGBTQ+-inclusive texts,” and that no opt-outs would be tolerated. Hundreds of Muslim parents have since sounded out in protest, some of them joining Christians in filing a First Amendment lawsuit against the mandate.
The kind of Islamophobia not so long ago associated with the GOP is now making an appearance among Democrats. Montgomery County Council member Kristin Mink said that this issue casts “some Muslim families on the same side of an issue as white supremacists and outright bigots.” In Hamtramck, Ms. Majewski, who lost her re-election bid in 2021, sounded a similar tune: “We supported you when you were threatened—and now our rights are threatened, and you’re the one doing the threatening.”
The left’s dismissal of Muslims as bigots echoes old right-wing insinuations that Muslims were more loyal to Shariah than to their country. Yet when Hamtramck’s City Council passed its ordinance, it did so by appealing to love of country and liberal neutrality, letting only national, state, city and prisoner-of-war flags to be flown. Mayor Amer Ghalib argued that the city government should maintain neutrality on contentious religious, racial and political questions.
Republicans doubtless sense an opportunity to make common cause with minorities while driving a wedge in the Democratic coalition. It’s easy enough for the left to dismiss white evangelical Trump supporters. But when the party does the same to Muslims, who for years had been loyal Democrats, it demonstrates its disrespect for actual cultural diversity.
