  1. Pretty much what they’re doing with the mental health epidemic that has coincided with smart phones and social media, but like the tobacco industry then, there’s too much money in it

  2.  @doaimanariroll5121  not to say that none of those play a part, but smart phones and social media increase social isolation

  4.  @doaimanariroll5121  smart phones and social media definitely play a role. Ask the other things you mentioned were around before, you just like your phone and don’t like commuting to the job you don’t like, so you’ll choose to blame that. Like a drug addict that thinks drugs are doing him good because he enjoys them

  5. Because the world is getting stupider

  7. This video is basically who shouts the loudest for longest gets listened to, regardless of the validity of their argument

  8. Media in particular newspapers were a lot more independent and had a larger range of diverse opinions and content in those days. There were hundreds of completely independent and separate companies who owned them, the same was true for television and radio. Now over 90% of media is owned by just 5 companies, and blackrock and vanguard who own each other have major shares in all of them

  11.  @vintagestuffguy1998  in an Adam Curtis kind of style, which this reminds me of. Excellent idea

  12. You need cheap, reliable and integrated public transport too. In Switzerland you can get a national season train ticket for about £2000

  13. If you think X-rays and smoking were bad wait until 2050 when they publish data on the effect smart phones and social media have had

  15. You act like miles weren’t invented and used in Britain. Wow Americans are so dumb.

  16. They spend a lot of time bombing and invading it if it doesn’t matter, in reality it’s because your government deliberately undereducated you because it doesn’t want you interfering with its business

  17. I’m pretty sure, like Argentinian beef, quality and price are significant factors

  18. You studied in London didn’t you? London is not the U.K., and while there are many dumb people in the U.K., thanks to the Americanisation of our society, institutions and culture, they still pale in comparison to the general dumbness of Americans on the whole

  19.  @kunicrossgaming  definitely, who do you think has been is running the country and extra big corporation for the past 15 years at least?

  20.  @angelmarauder5647  don’t disagree with you at all but even in the 60s there are a lot of fiercely independent news and media organisations that weren’t beholden to anyone. The USA was still very much in touch with its roots back then.

  21. Harvard and Stanford tenured professors have resorted to falsifying data in their published research papers now

  24. You mean like one that abolished slavery and sent its navy to stop slave ships and free the slaves on them?

  25. There isn’t a housing shortage at all. Just like there isn’t a shortage of roads. There are plenty of houses and flats, it’s just loads of them are empty for most of the time, because they’re either second homes or investments
