So are you saying that because some have made it marginalization is not a thing? Of course its causes are also cultural, that is exactly my point: we need to find cultural answers to this. Your argument smells a lot like the self-made-man A

But how long did it take for the whole of Europe to mend the damage of WWII, both physical and political? Germany has been left effectively occupied and divided for 45 years after the end of the war. We're talking about an industrializ

Then why don't you wear a helmet when you're walking on ice as well? I'm not saying helmets don't work, I'm saying it's not very likely to hit your head at high velocity on the ground if you were going 10 km&#x
