  • Yeah. You’re not gonna find many Swedes getting behind the wheel regardless of alcohol amount. There used to be a HARD stigma against it, since we know what happens. People used to get so drunk that we had to create a state monopoly of alcohol sales, in an attempt to reduce it. People argue about the actual effect, but i know that it’s cultural suicide to get behind the wheel drunk. The legal limit is 0,2 ppm alcohol.

    The Danes however… They could drink 3 halfliter lagers before reaching the legal limit of 0,8

    Not just cars. The logical endpoint of capitalism is a rent-only economy. Everything will shift in ownership to the ones with the ability to purchase above the market price. Undercut everybody for infinite gains in the future.

    Edit: I should say that i meant unregulated capitalism. I honestly don’t find anything wrong with people being well payed for doing exceptional things. Taking advantage of capital gains is NOT exceptional.

    Because you read (past tense) it before you blocked it?

    That’s the whole point. I don’t want a “past tense” understanding of what is being said and written by “people”.

    Obviously spammers get blocked, cause they make it hard to read. The rest are just words and opinions. All of which I’m perfectly capable of dealing with.


  • I tend to steer clear of online debate, i just want to see what is being written so that I don’t get a skewed view. The only way to avoid the echo chamber is likely not participating in social media at all.

    If I have the energy for it, I browse some classical forums, where you have to go through every reply. Kind of tedious, but atleast every post gets the same “weight”.
