The main risk of sugar isn’t the calories themselves, but rather their effect on our fullness perception. That is, the more sugar we eat, the harder it is to feel full after eating something. This in return cases a vicious cycle, one that can easily lead into obesity. I don’t know if that same issue can happen with sweeteners but I don’t generally trust anything that tricks our senses to such a degree. I don’t consider coffee the holy grail either, it’s just that its negative health effects have been tested for ages and are acceptable for its overall benefits. But that’s my own risk assessment, with only my health in the line.

It’s hard to get a good grip on the health neutrality of diet soda when the companies who make them have lied to us about sugar for decades. Maybe sweeteners are just their next lie, who knows. Much of the research done on sweeteners is funded by the ones who profit from it. The food industry have far more power than anyone should be comfortable with them having.

These numbers are very low, considering how much of the global population live in political shitholes, if not war zones.

Doesn’t really matter if the economy got bigger if it just means more money to corporations. The average person has certainly not seen growth. A mortage increase of 5% coupled with low wage increases, high food and fuel inflation left most people much worse off.

Then again, this unit of measure has always been a very poor one in countries with huge wealth gaps.

Supermarket chains have plenty of control and influence over their supply chain.

Michelle, my friend, rethink your career as a corporate cockglober.

Nobody with a drop of knowledge of how this world works would buy this bs.

Remote is something I’d only enable while using it. Once found my ubuntu (I use arch btw) with the setting on for some reason. Might be worth checking even if you never turned it on.

Wanna bet most people making a scene out of it don’t even use sunscreen?

The sun pumps out some amazing stuff. It happens to be the OG nuclear reactor.

I say this as a long term caffeine for the rest of my life addict. Coffee + sugar is a wildly different effect than just coffee. I avoid sugar completely during my coffee hours.

Was he seen alive recently? For all we know, that was just a pricey cremation.

In terms of the current systems we have in the west, yes. In terms of older revolutions no. It wasn’t intended to be a universal statement.

And I said generally. Not absolutely as your ‘all’ implies. The anchor for what I consider a person with excellent ideals and a beacon for humanity is MLK.

But you’re welcome to think of me as a moron if it helps you fulfil your outrage needs. Sleeping well at night is important.

What doesn’t? At this point I’d guess most people want him dead.

The people who generally want to destroy a system and rebuild anew are usually clueless or have an ulterior motive.

While we are nowhere near the best we could be, we are also nowhere near the worst we have been in the past. Today is the result of an endless amount of people putting their effort, and often their lives, into improving society. This fight never ends.

Is this their post or yours?

Ah yes. Headline spoilers. Why not?

That head grab before the kiss though. Looks like he is used to forcing these things.

No cake frosting in the jungle.

Isn’t that basically what he pitches? To be angry at the system that has, in their minds and from their perspectives, been wronging them? Even though of course people like Trump are a tumour in the system.

Don’t tell the people fighting this about coal power plants and other things that actually fuck the environment and kill us.

Never even knew the original. What was it?

This post is incel stuff. There’s no reasoning with people like that.

So many corporate cock gobblers commenting on this topic.

Parasites like Meta infiltrated our society, did their damn best to become a monopoly, currently steal from smaller businesses, lost personal data from shitloads of people, makes you their product, and even fueled instability in entire countries. Then people wonder why a government wants to use it to perhaps save a few more lives. It’s not like Meta is a company deserving of goodwill, so are you people getting a cent for this PR work or are you just suckers?
