Looks like they took a lot of cues from iOS 18

Scotch Guard (PFAS) was released in the 50s and everyone went gangbusters spraying it on everything.

Plastic based and molded products started to be seen around 1910 and surged in the 50s after WW2.

Processed foods were a thing since the 1800s with sugars as HFCS added into everything since the 60s.

Not to discredit what you’re saying, but, and this is solely based within the context of this particular headline discussion, it would cause you to look elsewhere. I’m thinking it’s more stress based. I’m working my butt off to evolve my small business just to survive. While we are having success and growth, it takes no less than 16 hours a day Sunday through Saturday to make it happen. I remember watching some family members and other inspiring business leaders as a kid in the 80s working regular 8 hour days and owning two homes.

Further to that, psychological medicine is so far behind and mental health has a major, if not direct, effect on physical wellness.

Agreed, the above doesn’t mesh with this variable

Look at Samsung’s history. This is their MO, it’s how they became the Samsung we know today - straight up steal actual product designs, not just concepts, not just copy closely, a compete steal, and sell until arrested.

Fun times.

Ha! Now I see it - that was very funny, sir!

Very compelling

How could Switzerland do this!?

That’s fair. Those two locations are both at risk of a Measles outbreak but for very different reasons.

I doubt any money he’s donating to politicians is going towards any of his causes.

What sources are you citing there?

The World Health Organization and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS have stated that male circumcision reduces men’s risk of acquiring HIV through sex with women by approximately 60%. In East and Southern Africa, voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) has been a WHO-recommended HIV combination prevention intervention since 2007

which is apparently an expired policy and has not been reaffirmed

The above WHO/UNAIDS report is from late 2023.

UTI rates can be lowered by teaching parents to properly wash their children.

Not sure if you’re uncircumcised and/or have children who aren’t and are speaking from experience, but the couple of friends I have that are not all spoke of difficulties maintaining cleanliness, even when showering daily and pulling the skin back to clean thoroughly. My point being it’s not typically the parents at fault here.

For HIV, they mention female to male transmission which is something that is extremely rare in the US.

Says who? Maybe relatively rare, but “extremely”?

Without a single source cited in your comment, it sounds more like virtue signaling. I’m not trying to be combative but I think some folks get caught up in an article like the OP link and wrongfully attribute it to vaguely related topics like male circumcision. Just because it’s an elective medical procedure doesn’t negate the truth of its medical benefits.

complications with circumcision happen more often than instances of it being beneficial

That’s just not true, my dude.

The American Academy of Pediatrics states that “the health benefits of newborn male circumcision outweigh the risks and that the procedure’s benefits justify access to this procedure for families who choose it. Specific benefits identified included prevention of urinary tract infections, penile cancer, and transmission of some sexually transmitted infections, including HIV.”

I’m all for choice on this topic. But they shouldn’t even call it female circumcision, as there’s no medical benefit to such a procedure, and such practice should only be referred to as female genital mutilation (or cutting).

Cultural and ascetic opinions aside, male circumcision is objectively medically beneficial.

An aggressive embargo policy would be nice.

Wow. That’s some really human and relatable stuff right there. I feel you brother. You’re right, it’ll take baby steps. But the youth of the nation can make the some of the greatest changes.

What’s the general sentiment with the community? I imagine, if it’s anything like the current climate in the states, your community may be pretty split.

Hey kudos to you for speaking out. Are you in Russia now?
