Definitely adventurism but finally one that was thought out enough to both serve as a great rallying issue for the disaffected masses as well as strike enough fear into the targeted company that it sent them into a tailspin. As communists, adventurism isn't one of our tactics but this is a rare case of it being a relatively effective tactic
I won't do anything about anyone else, but if you come for me, I might try to stop you.
Yeah absolutely vile thing to do, especially because by the time they started that it was already clear it wouldn't help their bargaining position
Because the federal government will be cool with it and use it as a blueprint
Here comes the babushka brigades
You may have explained it before, but why does Yemen send so few rockets at a time? It seems like the best option would be to send many at different targets and push the zio's ability to intercept them to the max
Oh wow didn't expect a proud turbo lib to be using the capitalist innovation line in such a way. the turbo libs I know don't fall for that one anymore.
They might be calling the housing bubble in China a "housing crisis?" It isn't a crisis of people being homeless but investing in housing and losing trillions of yuan collectively
So why does this guy think this? How does his argument work out? I'm genuinely interested because it is so unfathomable to me that I can't comprehend how he could come to the conclusion that lower drug prices is bad
No amount of heavy metal exposure is healthy and this is just one of the many ways people are exposed to it. Limiting potential exposure, especially in children under two, is pretty serious. Rice is the largest single exposure food of any food type, and for communities that eat rice for multiple meals a day, rice accounts for up to 50% of their children's exposure to arsenic, not to mention other heavy metals. If switching to a different grain is all it takes to greatly reduce that number, it seems pretty silly to hand wave the research.
In a world where exposure to heavy metals, PFAS, microplastics, formaldehyde and other dangerous substances is both a daily occurrence and being monitored less rigorously by the state organizations designed to keep exposure low, it's definitely good to be aware that staple foods which billions rely on every day can be settings kids up for a lifetime of adverse health outcomes. Edit: also want to add that consistently getting covid fucks your immune system too so adding all the virus and sickness we are collectively dealing with to carcinogens and heavy metal exposure... It's just good to limit what you can when you can
Edit: also, who throws away rice water? You steam the rice in the water which is absorbed by the rice. The article suggests cooking rice like pasta and tossing the water to reduce arsenic but to suggest most people already do this is absolutely false
