It seems so unnecessarily cruel to not wait for brain death. Why risk causing unnecessary suffering? Why treat a living human as dead meat? What kind of society creates doctors and staff who would do such things?

You need to re-read the stats on Trump voters. They are not all unemployed, uneducated, steel-mill hicks. Not by a looong shot. Your use of stereotypes is a poor strategy.

To be honest, the same seems to be happening over here in America.

Again, you fail to describe any clear line. In fact, you indicate that there is no clear line by providing an example of a child whose line is different from that of another kid. The medium isn’t the important bit, btw, so you needn’t get h

I think we’d be way better off if our manufacturing jobs had stayed on our turf. Yes, things might be more expensive, but we’d also have many more people being paid good wages, we would have reduced GINI inequality issues, we would have bet

WTF is “innocence”? Where TF is the “clear line”? The books the Danish use to educate their children about sex would be classified as kiddy porn in most of the USA. The books the Saudi’s use to educate their children about sex… don’t exist

Up in Canada, at the south end of the BC/Alberta border, is — was — a coal-mining town by name of Frank. Frank built itself near the base of Turtle Mountain, known to the native Indians as “the mountain that moves.” Frank was buried un

The biggest mistake western democracies have made is to trade with dictatorships. Enriching them has not encouraged them to become progressive, it has only made them more powerful. We have sown the seeds of our own destruction through our c

It has already shaved two years of life expectancy off America’s citizens… and that’s with halfway decent actions being taken to immunize and isolate. An unchecked Covid pandemic would be a helluva lot worse.

But you should try to control its spread, such that it doesn’t overburden the healthcare system. Otherwise you end up with not only the inevitable covid casualties, but also those who were unable to get timely healthcare: lots of cancer vic

Christ, this misrepresentation once again. All y’all need to get caught up: that is not a John Hopkins University study, the researchers are not epidemiologists they’re g.d. economists, the thing is not peer-reviewed, and it does not suppor

Writing a guideline is not quite the same as investing several million in the development and testing of proven-effective design. Back in the day Apple did the right thing and rigorously tested its design hypotheses: there was a specific, f

It’s a perfectly honest title. Doctors in China have been performing live human vivisections. People are being cut open and their living, beating heart is being removed. It does not matter that these people are on death row: what matters is

I’m sceptical. I’m 5’8”, wearing 32x32 jeans. I am 15lbs overweight. To need 34” jeans I would be a solid 35lbs overweight… about an extra 25% more than I should weigh.

It’s time for massive public works projects once again. If we can spend trillions on military and billions bailing out “too big to fail” failures, we can spend significantly on re-developing our nations for the new reality of our climate an

There is nothing positive about it. Everything about it was wrong. The organizers are dangerous loons. The fundraising was a grift. The protests were held in the wrong places. The protests did not affect the right people at all. Its leade

So tiresome. A careful reading of the extensive Wikipedia article makes it quite clear that it was not mostly a hoax. The gist of the work is undoubtedly true: Russia was actively engaged in manipulating the US election, and Trump’s fol
