Because for many people reducing consumption reeks of poverty. They've grown up in a world where everything just yells more! more! at them. It's the dominant paradigm of our times - growth above everything. Conspicuous consumpti

It's okay - they are multi-billion company. Rules don't apply to them. Rules are just for us peasants.

To attribute culpability, you need solid proof. I'm not saying that Russia did it - simply that there's enough evidence that Russia had means, motive and opportunity - which makes it a probable candidate.

The war started in 2014. There was even less imminent possibility of Ukraine becoming a NATO member back then, when Putin first sent unmarked military units to attack Ukraine.

That's not the Russian "perspective", that's just a Russian propaganda lie. The actual Russian perspective is "Let's quickly grab Ukraine before they completely turn towards Europe, otherwise Russia cannot be a

Ukraine was not a NATO member when Russia attacked it in February 2014, not was there a membership action plan to get Ukraine into NATO. This has nothing to do with NATO. Only with Russian imperialism.

What exactly is the evidence there? I read the article and all I see is hearsay. German investigations found that the Andromeda trail leads to Russia[0]. [0] https://www.tagesspiegel.de/internationales/nord-stream-spur.

Russia's "concerns" are not valid. It's not even that there was absolutely no active process of joining NATO when Russia attacked Ukraine in February 2014 and started all this. No; if Ukraine wants to join NATO, that&#x2

There's no actual evidence that Ukraine did it, lest alone solid proof. Russia is a probable candidate.

It is easy; nations that attack other nations unprovoked are "evil" (at fault). Ukraine has never infringed on Russia's sovereignty or territorial integrity before it was attacked. Therefor this war is entirely Russia's

Research shows that the willingness to incur personal cost to punish unfairness is prevalent in all cultures. I can dig up the relevant studies if you are interested.

I'm pretty sure that such a legal system does quite a bit of work to destroy trust in the legal system and institutions.

Corruption is inherently bad because it undermines the rule of law and people's trust in the the government.

Survival of the fittest is just the circumstances we find ourselves in. Our strategy to survive is cooperation. Human are amazing at cooperation, second only to eusocial insects. Fairness is an important mechanism in organizing this coopera

This is about ownership, not decision making. How you set up the decision making process is entirely up to the company. The same argument could be made for any other kind of shared ownership company.

The idea is that this will increase FOSS investments and create cooperation between municipalities to setup FOSS project managements for their needs.

Pretty much everyone speaks English in Switzerland. In big[0] cities you can get by with only English. This should not be a reason not to more there. [0] for Swiss values of "big"

It's just amazing that such a small seed contains all the necessary information an initial machinery to rebuild a complete plant that then builds more seeds. It blows your mind, if you think about it for a moment.

I recommend gardening. It's really satisfying to see stuff grow, to learn how to tend to plants, how they compete and cooperate. It helps me to preserve some sanity.

You are correct - bellicose would have been the proper form.

Putin is not lying when he fabricates historic claims and of howls about how Russia has been victimized - this delusion is his honest believe. But Russians lie when they say that they don't want to attack any other countries. Just how

By matching claims with observations from reality. When someones claims don't match reality, they are lying.

Because repeating Russian lies automatically makes you a useful idiot. It comes with the territory.

Good. It discourages attacks from Russia, the only bellicist nation in the region.

The comment you made is obstinate and vapid. It does not refute my point and does not even address it. The article you posted has nothing to do whatsoever with the topic at hand. Neither does it discuss toddlers, nor does it discuss the inf

Yeah, me too. I would expect that cartoons make up a big part of the screen "diet" of these toddlers and cartoon characters noises are not "words spoken by an adult".

Yes, really. There's plenty of studies that show that.

If you interact with babies, you'll notice that they are looking at you with an astonished intensity. That's because every neuron in their brain is trying to understand "What is going on!?" Humans are copy-machines. We c
