    1. Vasectomies (+ birth control pills)
    2. animal testing for human research.
    3. I’m sure that anyone working in a hospital can cough up a few dozen more.

    RISUG has been invented in 1978,
    is reversable, cheaper, zero side effects,
    and with so far 0% failure rate when implemented properly,
    Vasalgel, an improvement on RISUG by having a longer shelf-life,
    has been invented around 2015.

    So this stuff has been invented in the same year as the first Star Wars movie,
    had gone through all trials multiple times with flying colors,
    and instead we use knives and pills with large side effects.

    If any invention could be been ubiquitous in use at a much earlier stage,
    then this would be it.
    It could and should have been widely used by the 1980’s.

    For animal testing we have 3D printed human tissue.
    So why test on animals if your question is “Does this stuff work on human tissue?”
    The answer you’ll be getting is whether or not it works on mice.
    Mice are not human.

    I’m going with @Sandouq_Dyatha here and say that you are not all international elite spies.
    And it’s not that “countries I don’t like manipulate their GDP”.
    It’s more that GDP measurements, including the PPP kind, are fundementally flawed and that’s by design.
    China is around 2.5 times the economy of the US at this moment by looking how much they are manufacturing
    and how much electricity they use, surpassing the EU per person.



  • So dumb people who can’t do multiplications, but can count months, won’t panic.

    On a more serious not, most people skim the headline, read “three times” and think
    “Wow! There’s some work to do!” instead of
    “Twelve times!? Then Russia is winning. Wait, Russia is winning?
    Why is this newspaper not stating that Russia is winning?
    There’s no way Ukraine can win with one bullet versus twelve.
    Shouldn’t this be a giant issue?
    Why is there no giant debate on this?
    Why is my newspaper demanding a debate on this?
    Should Ukraine even continue to risk sending its soldiers to fight a war
    where the enemy has twelve times the amount of ammo?”

    Liberals are rightwing.

    There was a brief moment the US democratic party went social democratic, from Roosevelt to Carter and these days there’s a small resurgance with Mamdani.

    But Clinton, Obama, Biden, Harris and Cuomo are all at the very least centre-right wing.
