I was under the impression they mentioned at some point torrenting things

I think there are studies looking into exactly this, it’s worth looking for

Vesectomy is the way if you know for sure that you never want children - they aren’t reversible like birth control are and shouldn’t really be considered reversible at all because there’s a very real risk of them not being so

This exact problem is systematised in software and other infrastructure regions. Even hospitals for example have backup generators.

The problem is that power companies making resilient grids eats into their profits and so they won’t do it unless they’re compelled to

So, your second paragraph is interesting because I/my family have lived that experience; as an autistic person and as someone whose grandfather fled their country as a refugee due to a communist uprising

Autistic people were actually the very first group of people to be holocausted by the nazis, several years before Jewish people

Does that give me more right or credibility to share these ideas? should it?

I don’t think it’s made a difference in this case either, if we’re comparing it to other individuals who have made this point and the effects on foreign policy

Genuine Q: isn’t saying this should have come from a Jewish person a form of tribalism itself?

I’m of the opinion that critical thinking (like this piece) can be achieved by any person from any background, and we all should be engaging with the ideas that come up (and their merit, or lack thereof) rather than anything else if we’re interested in moving forward in a way that is equitable for all

IMO It seems a dangerous thing to be gatekeeping ideas from certain groups of people

That’s interesting, ordinance survey (in the UK) don’t do that, so it isn’t a universal standard

In the UK, you have to notice that the heights are reducing

Except all of the hills could be valleys, you need to see the numbers on the contours
