An alleged scientist should know better than to equate correlation with causation. Especially when the other side of their mouth is saying "We don't know the cause."

Perhaps people with poor health are more prone to eating UPFs, either from some craving caused by their poor health, or because their poor health leaves them having to buy the cheapest food possible (which will be UPFs).

Did they make any attempt to distinguish between correlation and causation? Or even acknowledge that they aren't the same thing?

Their mantra is "GIVE US MONEY OR YOU'LL DIE!!! AND SOMEONE WILL MOLEST YOUR CHILDREN AND KILL YOUR DOG!!1"

Doesn't much matter what the subject is, it's a dire threat to human civilization and the only possible way to survive is to give the hysterical pearl clutchers all your money.

Sweden (and most of Europe) has more trust in their own government than those of us in the US. And certainly more trust in their own government than in any other government. And quite possibly more trust in a rabid dog playing fetch with a hand grenade with the pin pulled than in the Chinese government.

But this isn't about the fire department, or the bus company, doing so. It's about the manufacturer - literally halfway around the world - doing so with zero information about the crash.

(And the fire department has their own way of cutting out the batter, that involves bolt cutters and clearly marked access points on the outside of the vehicle.)

So you don't care if the next car has the same flaw, and catches fire in your garage and burns down your house in the process? Even though that flaw could have been - possibly quite easily - identified and fixed if those logs had been available?

Or that the same thing might happen to your neighbor, whose burning house might also burn yours down? While you're in it?

Or that your insurance company might double or triple your rates because your car is designed to be unsafe? If they're cover it at all?

Or that the guy who just rear ended you (and his car caught fire) might be uninsured for those reasons?

I'll bet you run with scissors, too.

Obviously, he's a tout.

unless you've been in a coma for the last 50 years? I mean, seriously, their entire economy has been a house of cards for at least that long.

When an idea's time has come, those who stand in the way will be road kill on the highway of progress.

Well, there's your mistake. Believing the US is a pro-capitalist, anti-socialist society. Parts of it are, yes, but parts are the exact opposite.

It's almost like, with 300 million people, they aren't all the same!

And flying cars have been around for a hundred years. Including production models.

California, however, still favors it heavily, and is doubling down on it.

"When you're dead, you do not know that you are dead. The pain is felt by others. The same thing happens when you're stupid"

Sounds like a valuable social service to me.

Unless you're planning to print it out (requiring about 300 cubic meters of paper - per month, to keep up with edits), you still need things like electricity, and replacement hardware as it wears about and the infrastructure to keep it all going, which is about as likely to be available after a civilization destroying collapse (which is, by definition, what we're talking about) as the internet.

So good luck with that.

All that aside from the fact that it's largely useless with the internet.

And NPR brags about how unbiased and factual they are, and little girls all want a pony.

But it isn't hard to find first hand accounts of their overtly political bias, so perhaps, their own claims about themselves are not exactly reliable or credible.
