Why do you call Elon a fuckwad? Because he doesn't agree with regime changing every nation that refuses to become JUSA's little bitch?

Or maybe it's because Elon doesn't think JUSA should be bombing the crap out of brown people villages in the Middle East just to get more oil or satisfy the zionists in AIPAC that buy the JUSA Congress every year.

Of course you probably think that all that regime changing and coup instigating and brown people village bombing is all so that we can spread DEMOCRACY and FREEDOM to these unwashed heathens. That's what the unforunate citizens of JUSA are propagandized to believe. JUSA = the greatest superpower of propaganda and brainwashing in the history of the universe.

Elon is just calling a spade a spade. When the JUSA bombs the shit out of some poor Slavic country or some Muslim country and kill a few million people and call it DEMOCRACY, and you keep believing this propaganda coming out of your CNN or BezosPost or whatever, well I'm sorry but you're just a mindless brainwashed zombie. As unfortunately most American are.

You can just dual boot into Windows and install Fitgirl Repacks.

but Steamdeck hardware is kinda slow. Good news, you can install the equivalent of SteamOS/linux on ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion GO (my preferance due to bigger screen) and enjoy faster hardware than Steam deck.

I'm sure the people who research this stuff to earn a living will vigorously disagree, and big pharma will also. But what causes depression and other mental illness has been pretty much all figured out. And we know how to cure it (or at least prevent it)

In hunter gatherer societies (there were still quite a few in existence as recently as the 20th century) the incidence of depression and mental illness is zero. Suicides are zero. Seriously. Let that sink in.

For 2 million years of our existence, humans spent 99% of their time outdoors (except for the time spent sleeping, maybe in a cave). For 2 million years humans did physical labor, every day, all day, such as hunting (which involved lots of running) or foraging for food. No one sat around being sedentary doing soul-crushing bullshit spreadsheets and attending pointless idiotic meetings.

The further you get away from this 2 million years of ingrained evolutionary physiology, higher the rate of mental illness and suicides.

In countries outside of the USA, where big pharma does not own the entire government as they do in the USA, they did some studies and found out, making people exercise had a dramatic reduction in depression. Spending more time in the great outdoors had a dramatic reduction in depression. And believe it or not, fasting (not eating food for a few days) had a dramatic reduction in depression.

The first two most people will grasp, but the 3rd one (fasting) is a bit of a head-scratcher. But not really. For 2 million years people were hunter-gathers. There would've been times of plenty of food and times of scacity. Our bodies are exquisitely adapted and evolved to store food during good times (by converting excess food into body fat) and survive the lean times by using up the stored fat. By not using this mechanism, and just build up body fat store and keep building it and building it and never ever using it (which is what most Americans do), your body cries out in protest. It's a huge imbalance. You are MEANT to burn fat for survival once in a while. You are not meant to stuff your fact 6 times a day, every day, 365 times a year. (The average American eats 6.3 times a day). Fasting is not just something religious fanatics used to do 2000 years ago. It's actually something that every human needs to do to, at least once in a while, because our bodies have 2 million years of evolutionary pressure to do this.

A lot of US govt propaganda being repeated here. In the past 24 years since Putin came to power, Russia has improved in every measurable way. The life of the average citizen, from median income to life expectancy to healthcare coverage to education to even little things like how the subways operate and the amount of (or lack of) trash on the streets, drug use, homelessness, violent crime... has improved. It is a society on an upward trajectory.

I'm a pretty old fart, so I was already an adult in the year 2000, and I remember life in USA vividly. Things over here have declined in every way possible since then. There are streets where I grew up in, where I used to go to school, go to work, and they are filled with human feces and drug addicts sleeping on the sidewalk. Median income (real income, adjusted for cost of living) has plummeted. Press freedom has completely disappeared in USA, whereby every newspaper is just a govt stenagrapher repeating what they're told. Entirety of Congress and the federal government are just bought and paid for agents of the military industrial complex and big pharma.

And yes, the US govt blew up the Nord Stream pipelines. Personally ordered by President Biden himself and carried out by US Navy Seal divers planting C4 during the BaltOps exercises, then remoted detonated later. Read Seymour Hersh's report.

is humans. The average human body generates more bio-electricity than a 120-volt battery and over 25,000 BTUs of body heat.

That was US government mantra drilled into the heads of the citizens of USA (including you and me) for decades and decades. China is evil and Russia is evil because they're evil communists.

Now that China has completely embraced capitalism and market economy and become so good at it that it's burying US corporations, China is once again evil.

It ain't all about cheap labor. Labor costs in China now are far higher than places where US corporations have a strong manufacturing presence such as India and Vietnam. The #1 driver of Chinese manufacturing domination is that they've become very, very efficient. It's the same story we've seen before, with the likes of Toyota in Japan when they were far behind USA in the 1950's, but kept learning and improving until they surpassed the stagnant US companies.

In the last 20 years USA has spent 12 trillion dollars dropping bombs on villages in the Middle East that benefited no one except the military-industrial complex and some senators in the payroll of Blackrock. Meanwhile in the same 20 years China has spent exactly zero dollars waging foreign wars. Instead they spent trillions on improving their infrastructure (see all those new roads and bridges?) and automating their factories with robots. In fact the amount of industrial robots China bought in the past 4 years since COVID is astounding.... it's higher than all of USA Cananda and EU combined. *THIS* is the biggest driver of how China manufacturing has become so efficient.

Reputable sources -- government organizations and medical groups -- have a long and distinguished history being completely wrong when it comes to nutritional science. Actually even non-nutritional medicine.

Ever since the USDA food pyramid was released in ~1973 and pushed to all schools and hospitals, recommending eating less fat and less protein and more carbohydrates/sugar (which are just glucose molecules and basically the same thing), obesity has risen every year until it reached our current insane levels (majority of adults are now obese?? wtf) Just watch any old footage of a shopping mall or a street corner from before 1970 and notice how thin people are compared to today.

And not too long ago every child who ever caught a cold or a flu was pressured into getting a tonsilectomy by their doctor. Because that was the established, settled medical science. They really thought it was beneficial to the patient. I think as recently as 1970's they were giving out tonsilectomies like candies on otherwise perfectly healthy children who caught a cold.

Well today virtually no one gets a tonsilectomy just because they caught a cold. "Science" finally realized that all those decades of giving out tonsilectomies did not do a damn thing for the kids, they still ended up getting colds and flu at the same rate and it didn't make them any less sick either. It was just a completely unneeded procedure brought about by poorly done research.

Anyways you have group A saying PUFA is good for you and another group B (younger generation of doctors and scientists) saying it's horrible. Pick your poison.

Here's a few links to videos that are helpful. Of course internet videos are not proof of anything, but they do present the case for group B and you are welcome to judge for yourself.

Good question. I've asked this before myself.

PUFA is unstable. Light hitting it breaks it down. High temperature breaks it down.

In nature, PUFA does not exist naked in liquid form in a bottle. It only exists inside the liver of a fish (OMEGA 3) or bound up in the plant fibers of, say a walnut (OMEGA 6). In both cases the PUFA oil is protected by the living organism's cellular walls and its antioxidant defenses. Same as how piece of meat sitting outside will rot and decompose rapidly, but inside a living orgranism it will not rot because of the organism's defense against bacteria.

If you only eat PUFA oils directly from fresh fish or fresh walnuts that you cracked open yourself, then it would be healthy because the PUFA hasn't had a chance to get oxidized and break down. But if you were to bottle up the fish oil in a concentrated form and then let it sit for months, it will have oxidized noticeably.

As for PUFA oils that were extracted from plant fibers such as soybeans in a processing plant, it has already been subjected to extremely high heat (100* celsius+) and high pressure and petrochemical solvents. It's already oxided to all hell beefore the product even gets bottled up, before it even gets to the supermarket.

That is a plausible scenario... except for some solid research done in the 20th century that indicate otherwise.

There was a famous Norwegian doctor/scientist who visited the Inuit people living in Greenland in the 1930's. At that time, these people still lived the same way they've been living for thousands of years, eating the same things, and "modern" foods hadn't reached them yet. Literally every gram of fat these people ate came from animals, mostly seal meat. Seal is a mammal and seal fat is nearly 100% saturated fat. And what he saw amazed him. No heart disease found on anyone, not even the oldest village elder. Exact opposite of what "modern science" predicts, which is to say that saturated fat causes heart attacks and PUFA unsaturated plant-based fats are very healthy. What this guy observed in 1930 was the opposite... zero plant-based oil consumption, zero heart disease.

Ultra processing doesn't neccessarily mean the food is bad for you. But it just so happens, due to economics of making shelf-stable low cost packaged foods, that these ultra-processed foods all contain lots of sugar and lots of toxic oil. It's these two ingredients that are killing people, not the fact that the food is processed in a machine.

Sugar you all know about.It causes type 2 diabetes and metabolic disease which leads to obesity, and obesity causes a whole host of other problems (heart disease, cancer, fatty liver disease, etc).

But the other big problem, toxic oil, lots of people still don't get it. Toxic oil means soybean oil, cottonseed oil, rapeseed oil (AKA "Canola" oil), corn oil, etc. They are all very high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which unstable and oxidize rapidly and become toxins which then lead to heart disease over time. These oils are frankenfoods.... they do not exist in nature in the pure liquid that we think of. There's only a tiny amount of oil in a soybean, and it's all bound up in the fibers and it's hard to isolate and concentrate it. That's why industrial processes using high heat and hexane (a petrolchemical solvent similar to gasoline) are used to extract and concentrate the soybean oil. It's then bleached to get rid of the gummy residue and to get rid of the smell. All this processing breaks down and oxidizes the PUFA, which is already unstable to begin with. That means the bottle of soybean/corn/rapeseed oil you buy from the supermarket is already oxidized to all hell and is going to be a major source of inflammation and irritation to your arteries and other things.

The only reason companies use these toxic oils is because they're very very cheap.

Prior to the 20th century, before the invention of these cheap toxic PUFA seed oils, everyone ate butter and tallow and lard, and maybe olive oil in climates where olives can grow, and heart attacks were nearly unheard of. Then beginning with the invention of hexane-extracted cottonseed oil (which were first used as industrial lubricant and not even considered for human consumption due to their dubious origin), heart attack rates rose and rose and rose until by the late 20th century, heart attack became the #1 killer of adults in all the "western" nations that switched over to these cheap oils.

Monounsaturated fats and saturated fats are what you should be eating. It's not that these good for you, it's just that they are stable products and are not toxins and they are not bad for you and they don't cause heart disease. So don't eat oil thinking it's good for you, do the opposite. Avoid the toxic shit.

Back to the original point of the article. There are some ultra-processed foods that are not bad for you at all. Think of freeze-dried egg powder. No sugar added, no PUFA oils, just normal regular eggs that are freeze-dried in a giant vacuum chamber and then ground up into a fine powder by industrial grinding machines. It's highly processed, but also it's perfectly healthy to eat it. Because it's got no sugar and no toxic oil.

Get a cracked pirated version. This is what we used to do back in the day.

Or have the game companies developed new advanced DRM that can't be cracked? I genuinely don't know, I haven't played games in a long time.

Have you ever stopped to think that the same people who give orders to CNN also give orders to Fox News?

I mean, they're not exactly controlled by the lower and middle class, are they? They're all owned by billionaires and large corporations. And yeah, CNN spews government propganda when they're ordered to, and Fox News does the same. They cater to a different segment of the population, and they try hard to create an illusion of choice and objectivity, but when it comes down to it they serve the same master. And that master ain't you (or me).

You immediately went into defensive mode when I mentioned CNN. You identify CNN as being part of your own tribe, so you took an attack on CNN as an attack on you and immediately went hostile.. Exact same thing happens to conservatives when I attack Fox News. You people both need to realize when you're being played.

I've been racking my brain for the past year trying to think of why the mainstream media's been trying so hard to cover up SARS-COV2 origins. Best I've got so far is that the billionaires and the hedge funds and the Black Rock/Goldman Sachs types make a ton of money from China, so they don't wanna upset the cart or have anything happen to their gravy train. And if the unwashed masses realize just how much death and calamity the Chinese government virus has caused upon them, people will be enraged and out for blood and there goes all that free trade with China that's been making them $$$.

This really shouldn't be a political issue. Everyone in their right mind should be coming out against gain-of-function research and creating frankenviruses that cause pandemics. Regardless of political affiliation. The fact that you think it's a political issue is a testament to just how thoroughly you've been manipulated by the media.

At this point I don't even want retribution or justice. I just want the truth to come out, no revenge needed. I just want it acknowledged universally that yes COVID pandemic was caused by a manmade virus from the Wuhan lab, and that from now on people of the world will insist that gain-of-function research will never be allowed on any viruses again. Isn't that reasonable?

It doesn't. When did I say revealing the truth about COVID origins was going to help the supply chain issue? I was merely explaining that there is a deeper cause of the issue. I wasn't giving you a solution.

It's as if I pointed out some additional facts behind a crime that was overlooked, and you say "So? How does that help the crime victims? Offtopic!"

And btw what country do you live in that only right-wing racists believe Wuhan coronavirus (aka SARS-COV2) was created at the Wuhan lab? I'm guessing the USA because most of the rest of the world doesn't have blinders on quite as hard as you do.

Actually now that I read your original post again, it occurs to me that you were seeing SJW wokeness where there isn't any.

There is no SJW or wokeness in Squid Game. Let me repeat that. There. Is. No. Woke. SJW. in. Squid. Game.

You remind me of actual SJW warriors who see racism and injustice everywhere. And when there isn't enough racism for their liking, they invent them. You're the opposite, seeing wokeness where there isn't any.

Now the show is all about class divide, betewen the haves and have-nots. But that theme predates wokeness or SJW by about 5,000 years. Class struggle has been around since the ancient Sumerians.

I will say that there is Christianity bashing in the show. But from their perspective, Christianity is the newfangled thing, while Buddhism and Confucianism are their traditional beliefs.It's the *conservatives* in Korea who want to cling to their old way of life and push back against the new religions (like Christianity). But of course to you, Christinanity is your traditional religion and the SJW religion (and yes I consider wokeness and SJW a religion) is the newfangled thing.
