Basically one car breaking too much will make the following brake even more and so on until one stops and there's a jam. There is no clear reason like a road blockage or an accident, just compounding slow down.

Not defending Israel or the UK or denying Plastine genoice, but Iran's president really wanted Israel wiped off the map and really meant it. Iran and Israel are both at the wrong here.

Pure NaCl is cloudy white, so if it has any other color, there are other minerals mixed in the crystals, the NaCl is still there, there are also a buch of other atoms

You can. I can enjoy Hitler's paintings because they contains no nazism, even if a nazist mind produced them (you could argue that in his youth he was not yet a nazi, but that still doesn't matter).

Heck, I'm going even further and say that even if a form of art posses some inheritely bad aspect, you can still separate it from other artistic characteristics.

Let's say Hitler did a panting of a gas chamber killing people in a death camp, but is painted in such a skillfull and technically relevant way to be revolutionary in the art, then it's ok if people like it (technically, not ideologically), it's ok if it's owned and hang in a museum, even if it depicts real, evil and needless suffering. You can approcciate something technically or artistically without having to embrace the ideals it represents. And it's important to not cancel things just because bad people did it, because remembering is important.

As for modern bad artist, it's more complicated because you might not want to financially support an artist who is a criminal/terrible person, but that still doesn't mean you can't appreciate their art.

Also, we already have the opposite experience: gays being convinced to be straight. As far as I know, it doesn't really work and only creates suppressed emotions that ruins their sexuality.

10 or so years ago, Steam accepted payments in Bitcoin, for some reason they stopped, so they certinaly can do that but chose not to.

Also, 99% of people would not use it so wouldn't change much.
