  • This article is from 2019 and argues against the methods laid out in research article published at the same time. It does not provide adequate evidence to support your claim that thid is a myth. I Will do some more research later today, but this author writes for a think tank. I'd advise some due dillignece before reading this guys material. Forbes is also right leaning so will have some level of bias here.

  • Wonderful news. I just updated and it's working again. YouTube is so far down the enshittification tunnel that it's only a matter of time until something like this gets rolled out again. I really want Peertube to be the one, but there's just not that many people using it. I've done away with reddit and Twitter and now much prefer Lemmy and Mastadon, but YouTube is harder to kick.

  • The amount of sugar consumed by children from soft drinks in the UK halved within a year of the sugar tax being introduced, a study has found.

  • Has it improved health or reduced obesity, though? That's kind of the interesting thing, here. What has happened to overall calorie consumption?

  • Yes, reading Superimperialism at the moment. It's good. DoE was co-written so feels different to bullshit jobs (only other thing if his I've read). I think it's an important book.

  • Good points. I was referring to Thatcher and the start of the neoliberal policies which led to 2008 crash and then the austerity which led from it.

    As for the neolithic revolution thing. Have you read The Dawn of Everything? That book disputes quite forcefully the idea that agriculture led to class structures etc. They state that this idea is outdated and has since been disproven by archeological findings. Some ancient agrarian societies were tyrannical, others were not. In the same way some forager groups were heirachical and even had slaves and some were far more egalitarian. It's an excellent book.

    I found it powerful as it presents the idea that we choose how we live to a large extent. It's not determined by our mode of food production/technology alone (and therefore may not be doomed).

  • Regardless of your political views... The fact you can watch civilians being blown up and be like "justice" is pretty raw dude. I think you need to have a think about how you relate to the world... and other humans.
