I don't think you realise what the current state of a lot of Europe is, it is not good. Capitalism is bringing a lot of people into poverty and ruining the nature.

It's socialism or barbarism.

Studies have been done on this, and lower speeds correspond with less noise pollution.

She has been running a blog called Skepchick since 2005, and is a youtuber focused on feminism and critical thinking. Although she doesn't talk about marxism, she is an outspoken anti-capitalist.

Based on the stuff mentioned in Rebecca Watson's video on it, I'd say it's probably best to skip it. Video: https://youtu.be/avWOnnhjxM4

Posted this comment elsewhere, but is relevant here so I'll repost:

Further research is needed, but when digested casein breaks down into casomorphin which might bind to opioid receptors and release dopamine.

I agree with you. I was just saying what seems to be the logic of the EU in this letter: https://www.eeas.europa.eu/delegations/un-new-york/eu-explanation-vote-%E2%80%93-un-general-assembly-draft-resolution-combating_en

Which basically is "We oppose Nazism, but Russia uses fighting Nazism as part of its justification for the war in the Ukraine, so if we vote yes it'll look like we support Russia in the war".

Which I think is bullshit of course.

They would rather be considered fascists for refusing to oppose nazism than hypocrites for supporting a Russian draft resolution 💀

This a problem of sites being incentivised to get clicks rather than providing accurate and useful data, so every study gets an article with a click-bait title. Studies show all kinds of things, and unfortunately they get lots of publicity from sites that sensationalize the findings even if the study paper do a sober analysis of their findings.

Here's a decent study if anyone's interested: https://munin.uit.no/handle/10037/20825

 

While many citizens of the former Yugoslavia miss the lower prices and global recognition, others warn against over-romanticising the Tito era

A common narrative during these years was that Tito had, for nearly half a century, forced different peoples to live together against their wishes.

Of course they have to find some angle to convince people that a good thing is bad actually!

Hopefully I did the math right, if this-> =(E2*C2)/(B2*12)*100 is wrong as a formula for calculating energy cost as a percentage of net income, please disregard this data.

The link you sent didn't have data for all the countries in my original list, so I supplemented with 2014 data (in yellow cells) from worldpopulationreview.com/...

Decided to do spreadsheets to make this easily readable for everyone, sorted by cost of a MWh/average net income:

As someone who hasn't seen either of the versions, but just seen what people wrote about it. The live-action Mulan succeeds in her endeavours because she is the chosen one with magical powers, while in the original she did so through hard work and being clever.
