  • They went from nearly 1% of their overall population being addicted to heroin specifically to having one of the lowest drug addiction rates in Europe. It's not just decriminalization, though. Their public health initiatives such as methadone vans, mental health checkups for repeat offenders, etc were equally if not more important.

  • Lol his stuff is great. My favorite is his debate with Jordan Peterson where he didn't even realize it was a debate and just basically gave a talk about something he wanted to talk about lol. I'm a big fan but I wish he was sometimes a bit better at communicating his ideas effectively.

  • The Harry Potter one back in the day that I think gave these a kickstart was honestly comparable to most museums I've been to, tho obviously smaller and not as interesting, they did have the actual props and costumes there from filming tho which was dope.

  • That's like saying amazon and mom and pop gift shops don't compete. Like yeah, a lot of people will still prefer the atmosphere and curation of the mom and pop shop but that doesn't fucking matter when the vast majority of people just use Amazon, driving the shop out of business. This despite the fact that Amazon is more general and only competes indirectly.

  • To chalk up libertarian ideology, which BTW, every single anarchist on this site is a left wing libertarian, to just conservatives that don't want to pay tax, shows just how little you know or care about understanding political ideologies and how they relate.

  • Isn't GeForce Now only available if you buy an Nvidia graphics card? In that case I would consider it part of the product that was sold, not a free software

    Ignore my comment, GeForce experience is what I was thinking of.

  • It was Hamas* and that's an incredibly naive and simplistic way of looking at a very complex situation in which Israeli violence against Palestinians has greatly trumped Palestinian violence towards Israelis at almost every step of the way.

  • No but I can see that they're a member of the US education system based on their wording, content, and context.

    Can you?

    I didn't just make fun of somebody because their English sucks. My French sucks lmao. I mentioned that his comment doesn't paint him as very intelligent because he was talking shit on an education system (in a vast majority English speaking country, referring to the country as "here" implying both residence in the US and inside knowledge of the US education system (as he knows what happens within), virtually guaranteeing english grammar instruction at some point) while using the grammar of an inebriated 4 year old. Like fuck me dude

  • So it's actually a pretty interesting read but I think this paragraph gets the idea across pretty well:

    (Obv out of context)

    Most current antisemitism in Eastern Europe is closely related to these debates, as nationalists strive to “fix” their nations’ collaboration (or in the case of the Baltics and Ukraine, participation) in the Holocaust with revised paradigms that equal everything out. One of the poisons of ultranationalism is the perceived need to construct a perfect history (no country on the planet has one of those). Another is hatred of local Jewish communities who have memory, or family, or collective memory, of nationalist neighbors turning viciously on their neighbors in 1941, and of the Soviets being responsible for their own grandparents or parents being saved from the Holocaust. In America, this would be akin to someone hating African Americans for having a different opinion of Washington or Jefferson because they were slaveholders.
