    I've actually done analyses with OECD data. It's terrible. This is about as good as it gets. Countries don't report these data points very reliably. You get some that are a decade old,m some that are much newer.

    The real bias is in the use of "non-emergency surgery" as a data point. Look at time to see a specialist and you'll get a much different picture.

    Beyond what the article mentions (more people opting for retirement communities/assisted living/nursing homes), changing dating trends, better physical health for seniors, increasing divorce rates, etc., Id doubt there are that many other factors.

    At times, I find “unbiased” sources painful in how they pull their punches. It can be refreshing to me to find sources that are willing to write to their audience.

    FWIW, non-profit does not mean unbiased. Nor are they necessarily more accurate.

    Exactly. I’m not saying the cops should do it, but you’d think they’d take a moment to pause before harassing literally one of the most famous men in their city. If that doesn’t make them reconsider their actions, just imagine what it’s like for everyone else. Tyreek Hill even made a comment about it in a post-game press conference, where he wondered what would’ve happened to someone else.

    Interestingly, 90% of the content is posted by a man. Just sayin.

    (yes, that would be me)

    But I think @ada@ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone makes a great point. I post articles that largely pertain to men in !mensliberation@lemmy.ca, since that's a feminist space dedicated to men's voices and highlights how inequity impacts men. To piggyback off their point, and I do realize the irony in me saying this, I think there's a downside to men driving the conversation in feminist spaces (e.g.: the most upvoted comment ends up being about men). Men already dictate hegemonic beliefs in most spaces in society.

    FWIW, this had “borderline” written all over it, even before you got to the part where he admitted his diagnoses. You know what you did, don’t let him put ideas in your head.

    There are lots of great books on BPD out there. Don’t feel like you have to save him, that’s probably the guilt he wants you to feel. You should read up on managing borderline siblings, because that’s tough.

    That article is pretty different. It barely touches on the kneejerk reaction from the right, which is the point of OP's article. It doesn't get in depth with voters at all, tbh.

    If you wanted an article discussing the facts of drug smuggling, yes, your article is short, sweet, and to the point. However, all of that content AND MORE is included in the original, since the point of the original is how people have shifted right on drug policy, despite there being no evidence for Trump's statements.

    I'm a little confused as to how the title makes Trump sound good. Facts are facts.
