I’m going to be honest, I don’t care. This is what WV voted for. And not some 51-55% of people. It’s like 60-70%+of the view that the politicians putting in these policies received. WV has nothing going for it now that global warming is going to get rid of the coal industry eventually. They (the politicians and corporations) haven’t looked to diversify the economy. The state is bottom 10 at least in terms of education, poverty, and standard of living. The state is going to die slowly and painfully just like so many deep red states.
I agree with you and also am disappointed with how the article abuses language. This is in no way shape or form something that should be called Gerymandering, and to do so confuses a word that really deserves to not be abused.
I think a lot of people have never met people actually from WVa, but I have - i have lived near the state my entire life. There is no one more ignorant, backwards, than the average West Virginian. They simply do not care: about the future, about what anyone thinks of them, about repercussions for their actions.
It’s really hard to believe if you haven’t experienced it first hand.
Anyone who feels differently or does not fit in - leaves as soon as they are able to, because literally anywhere else is likely to have more opportunities for actual job growth and careers.
I also lived super close to WV. I am so glad we moved when we did. I was a kid at the time, but I still understood how backwards everyone was around there. I hated it
WV resident here. There are pockets of reasonable people left. My wife and I moved here a decade ago for good paying stem jobs. My kid is even flourishing at a well funded public school. Not all hope is lost.
I'm from that county and spent most of my childhood in that district. Not really surprising, tbh. Had a biology teacher in high school that was a staunch creationist and refused to teach anything other than what aligned with his beliefs. Failed that class pretty hard. Which started a snowball effect which lead to me quitting high school. The only class that I had that I felt comfortable in was art and that's because the curriculum wasn't laced with religious doctrine.
It’s not a punishment. Jail is the result of alleged bond violation through witness tampering. The same meal that every other prisoner eats there is made available to him. He’s not deprived of nutrition. If there was a medical reason that requires a vegan diet (like the prescribed adderall), don’t you think his lawyers and the media would be crying about it? No, his veganism is most likely a lifestyle choice. Still on nutrition - he may dislike it, but he can survive on boring food.
Who here said anything about depriving him food? He is depriving himself, because he is fixated on an idea that is 100% ideology, compared to just taking the vegetarian option.
Independent journalist Andrei Zakharov, citing an unnamed source, said Prigozhin on Wednesday was returning to Russia from a trip in Africa, where Wagner mercenaries have operated for years and where Prigozhin was recently filmed for a recruitment video.
“It would be a miracle if he’s on another plane,” the source said.>
I’m pretty sure removing the “during pregnancy” part of the title would make it FAR more accurate.
Women historically receive less/worse treatment than men.
We wait an average of 65 minutes before receiving an analgesic for acute abdominal pain in the ER in the United States, while men wait only 49 minutes. Source
Also from the same article
women in pain are much more likely than men to receive prescriptions for sedatives, rather than pain medication, for their ailments.
I have personally experienced both, and have had my husband speak for me, after being dismissed, and got a wildly different response.
Studies show that women’s perceptions of gender bias are correct. Compared with male patients, women who present with the same condition may not receive the same evidence-based care. In several key areas, such as cardiac care and pain management, women may get different treatment, leading to poorer outcomes source
a study this month found that women are less likely than men to get CPR from a bystander, and are more likely to die.
The research, funded by the American Heart Association and the National Institutes of Health, found that only 39% of women who have a cardiac arrest in a public place were given CPR, versus 45% of men. Men were 23% more likely to survive source
I could go on and on about it, but women universally receive worse medical care.
He added he no longer treats patients and his career is instead focused on social and political commentary. Similarly, he doesn't regularly lecture at U of T.
However, Peterson has said he wants to retain his licence.
Of course he does; it lends his snake oil an air of legitimacy.
But professional conduct is a pretty basic ask by any professional licensing authority.
Yeah bruh, those of us who are lucky enough to have control over our schedules are already doing this. Fuck it, I take every liberty I can. Until the fat fucks above me start working for a living, I will do as little as possible.
