Man living in a pretty nice society that uses regulations to have a high standard of living complains about regulations. Since he is 27 he clearly has not experienced things as - scarcity - starvation - fall of the Soviet Union and what it lead to first - the time when there was a lot less to choose from in stores - absence of fast and cheap fashion.

Exactly. Large-scale cooperation is not capitalism. It is humans doing things together in a organized and intelligent fashion.

And so we mask, clean the air around us, read research and debate it. And ban pathogens with FAR-UVC. What is still missing: - We collaborate to find and produce cures for all and those most in need. - We have children that get born and grow up as pathogen-free as possible.

The assisted euthanasia euforia in some countries is the modern cheap and shitty social engineering, because it also means that Public Health and society gives up on research and understanding and gives way to budget. So it is morally and ethically hollow.

If anyone wants to join a discussion about illness and disease at work on LinkedIn. linkedin.com/posts/marvin-re… @noren_elisabeth @AnjaLSundberg @Karl_Lauterbach @michael_hoerger @drseanmullen European research but lacks the Covid-19 perspective it seems.

Not sure why, but somehow it feels that both people with several reinfections are both flatter and more prone to aggression at the same time, and to recover or stabilize after a Covid-19 infection or if someone has LC not being too or showing too much emotions and being a bit "flatter" is needed.

*Sverige*? Pga alla bolån. Jag har *bara* CSN och lite klarna. I övrigt inga lån. (Hyresrätt.)

Came to think about it. We Millenials who have been single for a long time (and not had any sex life in this context) might simply not know now what sort of sex life we would have since there is no continuity and a lot of processes can have happened during that time.

Hear hear.

SERIOUS QUESTION: Does anyone else get sad and confused when trees get chopped down in residential areas that literally aren’t even bothering anyone ??

In a few years, it will be challenging to work with new colleagues. And on top of that they will also have several Covid-19 sequelae without knowing about that.

Madness.

GBD should be remembered as a document that has caused a lot of harm and continues to cause harm, which reasonably intelligent but not educated in STEM or biology people try to use as a way to "politically intellectualize" pathogens and fail of course. Like @jordanbpeterson and Daisy Cousens. (And I do/did fond her attractive, but logic is logic.)

On the morning of November 30, 2021, in a courtroom in Frankfurt, a judge read out a verdict that no court anywhere had ever delivered before. The defendant, an Iraqi former ISIS member, was guilty of genocide. The specific crime: the death of a five-year-old Yazidi girl named Reda. He and his wife had purchased Reda and her mother as slaves in 2015. As punishment for wetting the bed, he had chained the child to a window in the open sun in Fallujah, Iraq, in heat that reached fifty-one degrees Celsius, and left her there until she died. The mother survived. She testified. It was the first time any court anywhere in the world had convicted any member of the Islamic State of genocide. It was the first time any court anywhere had ruled in law that what was done to the Yazidi people was a genocide. The institutional path that made it possible to use that word, in that courtroom, six years after Reda died, runs straight back through the United Nations to a twenty-two-year-old Yazidi woman who, in December 2015, decided not to speak in generalities. Her name is Nadia Murad. She was born in Kocho, a Yazidi village of about seventeen hundred people in the Sinjar region of northern Iraq. On August 3, 2014, ISIS fighters surrounded Kocho. They separated the men from the women, took the men to the edge of the village, and shot them. They took the older women and shot them too. Among the dead were six of Nadia's brothers and her mother. The younger women — Nadia among them — were loaded onto buses and driven to Mosul. There, they were sold. She was twenty-one years old. She would spend the next three months in captivity, passed between captors under what ISIS called sabaya — sex slavery — until, in early November, she found a door left unlocked and ran. A Muslim family in Mosul, at enormous risk to themselves, sheltered her and helped get her out. She crossed into northern Iraq, then a refugee camp, then Germany, which granted her asylum. She was, by every standard the world recognizes, free. She was also, by every standard the world recognizes, free to be silent. Most survivors of mass sexual violence are silent. Nadia Murad chose differently. On December 16, 2015, she walked into the chamber of the United Nations Security Council, accompanied by the human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, and described what had been done to her and her community. She did not speak in generalities. She did not use the diplomatic euphemisms — gender-based violence, crimes, abuses. She used the names of things. She said the women had been sold. She said the children were as young as nine. She said her mother had been executed. She said what had been done to her. Then she made the demand the testimony had been built to make: international recognition that this was a genocide, and prosecution of the people who had committed it. The room was silent. The transcript exists in the UN archives. Here is the part that turns a speech into law. Vague testimony, by design, cannot become evidence. A genocide conviction in a court of law requires testimony specific enough that a judge can rule on intent, on system, on patterns of conduct. Nadia's testimony, and the testimony of other survivors she helped gather in the years that followed, was specific enough to do that work. In 2016, the United Nations Commission of Inquiry formally determined that ISIS's treatment of the Yazidis met the legal definition of genocide. The United States, the European Parliament, and the UK Parliament reached the same determination in the same months. In 2017, by Security Council resolution, the UN established a specialized investigative team — UNITAD — whose job was collecting evidence to courtroom standard, so prosecutions could one day take place. In 2018, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, shared with the Congolese gynecologist Denis Mukwege, for their work to end the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war. She used the acceptance speech to remind the room of the women still missing. And in 2021, in Frankfurt, in a case in which Amal Clooney represented Reda's mother, the architecture caught up with the testimony. There have been further German convictions since. There are open prosecutions in other countries. UNITAD's investigative files have been used in courts where the crimes themselves happened in Iraq but the accused was found in Europe, under universal-jurisdiction laws that allow genocide to be tried wherever the perpetrator turns up. Nadia Murad is thirty-two years old now. She continues to travel, to testify, to run Nadia's Initiative, which rebuilds water systems, clinics, and schools in Sinjar — the region she came from. By the most recent figures, more than two thousand eight hundred Yazidi women and children are still missing or held in captivity. Mass graves are still being excavated. The first time a court used the word genocide for what was done to her people, the year was 2021. The first time anyone said it in a chamber where the law could hear it was December 16, 2015. The woman who said it was twenty-two. She did not speak in generalities. If her story moved you, drop one word in the comments — Nadia, witness, evidence, anything that comes to mind.

Good point. Need to get a drivers licence soon and maybe a car to have more CC freedom of movement.

"Adults refusing tetanus shots." ???????! Are they idiots? WTF. Didn't they learn anything in school? Is this "Make America sicker then ever" by RFK & Trunp?

The contrast between the general public and actual research debate: Family, friends and colleagues: You are a bit strange, hypocondriac or mentally ill. Actual research debate level:

Honestly, I feel like screaming. The world does not fully understand what is happening, and even in Ukraine this is rarely discussed in the news. Russia has significantly improved its fiber-optic drone capabilities and is deploying them on a massive scale. The battlefield is changing faster than many people realize. Places that felt relatively safe less than a year ago no longer feel safe. I am currently in the Dnipropetrovsk region, and I am seeing roads between cities being covered with protective nets because of the growing drone threat. In some areas, travel increasingly resembles moving through corridors designed to shield civilians from attacks. This is more than a military problem. It is a transformation of everyday life. The war has evolved. Technology has evolved. A new chapter of warfare is being written in Ukraine, and Europe should be paying close attention because many of these lessons will shape future security challenges far beyond Ukraine. Entire regions are being forced to adapt their infrastructure, logistics, transportation, and daily routines. These protective systems cost enormous amounts of money and resources. And all of this is happening because Russia has faced too little accountability for too long. What we are witnessing is not only occupation or conventional warfare. It is technological terror. Sometimes it feels less like the world we knew and more like the reality of Terminator: Judgment Day. This is why sanctions matter. Not only for Ukraine, but for the security of Europe as a whole. What is being tested in Ukraine today may become a challenge for other countries tomorrow. #Alumina21 Thank you. Truly, thank you to everyone who continues to pay attention. I volunteer across Ukraine, documenting the reality of war and everyday life in a country under constant attack. My goal is to help people understand not only the statistics, but also how this war is changing communities, infrastructure, and the lives of ordinary people. P.S. Please excuse the quality of the video. I’m currently unemployed and operating on an extremely limited budget, so I can’t afford to renew my CapCut subscription. I’m simply doing the best I can with the tools I have. #russia #war #wardrone #technology @wilde_frank @EU_Commission @Europarl_EN @realLangerDan @militaryhistori @MCDiCianna @MickTheKingof @MattPPea @kamipapa2 @FellaHrx69 @DavidWemhoff @theliamnissan @Galwaybaywatch @Fr_Bechieau
