People with experience working in and around municipal water infrastructure: Do you drink tap water? Are there times when you do not?

    Returning to the idea of rehabilitating these men, I leave you with a quote:

  • I’m going to hold you responsible for defending them from criticism they need to face.

    These men already face the criticism, that is the driver pushing them further to become abusive and self-abusive.

    What you are suggesting is cornering an animal, and then saying "Hey, we should corner it more because it's acting aggressively." and then acting surprised when it attacks you.

    We need to offer these men a healthy way out which is culturally appropriate.

  • Dude, I just watched the first 30 seconds of that video.

    The way that it is edited tells me that it is written for entertainment rather than informing (the quick cuts), intended to emotionally manipulate the audience (listen to the music), and likely biased because it is using an interview / podcast format. This is a secondary source of information, rather than a primary source.

    Good sources to read and share are primary sources e.g. peer reviewed research articles. If there are a research articles given in the video, then you should be sharing those, not the video.

    Here is an example of an article that is related to men and loneliness:

  • I doubt that they were intentionally reckless ... probably just stupid and careless

    Being stupid and careless while manning heavy machinery (car) is about at reckless as it gets.

    If you don't sue, you are teaching them that what happened is okay and to keep doing it.

    What if they hit a child next? A puppy?

  • The ketchup as a vegetable controversy stemmed from proposed regulations of school lunches by the USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS)

    in 1981

    Mate, your hot take is older than my dad.

    On September 25, 1981, President Reagan withdrew the original regulations proposed by the Food and Nutrition Service due in part to the sharp criticism from the opposition

    Wow, this hot take has gone cold. Send it back.

  • Most of what a kid eats is what their parents eat

    Did you read the article? What if most of what a kid is eating isn't what their parents are eating?

    Since that time, there has been a substantial increase in schools participating in the Community Eligibility Provision, a federal policy that allows schools in high poverty areas to provide free breakfast and lunch to all attending students.

    So these kids are eating two meals a day that aren't directly provided by their parent. Sounds like most of their meals aren't what their parents are eating.

    Also, if they are in extreme hardship, they may not even get to eat dinner with their parents.

  • You didn't read the article.

    It linked to a study that refutes you.

    By 2017-2018, foods consumed at schools improved significantly and provided the best mean diet quality of major US food sources, without population disparities.

    The large improvements at schools were associated with increased whole grains and less saturated fat, SSBs (Sugar Sweetened Beverages), and sodium.
