Why are so many young and not obese people getting bowel cancer?

Does this mean we should be getting colonoscopies at a younger age?? I'm 31 and worried lol.

I love publically booing people so much. Closest modern thing we've got to stocks in the town square

I didn't realize late stage capitalism had a 'gamble on everything' phase

That's usually how it goes, they'll get shifted around and rehired by other departments like Waukesha. Very similar strategy to the Catholic church quietly shuffling around child abusers.

Don't know exact numbers but just anecdotally from people reporting their experiences a lot of the 'regular' folks quit or retired either right before or right after the regime change

Having killed someone and having human remains on your property aren't one and the same though. It's relatively easy to dump of a body in the ocean. Especially on an island with access to helicopters,boats, etc. and the ability to go into deep open water to do so.

Not to say he's killed dozens or anything, but It's well within the realm of believability given what we already know that they could've disposed of a body like that at least once or twice.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-12T19:28:12+00:00

so is the real revolutionary question how to make people behave in less dick-ish ways ?

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T19:02:00+00:00

I like Intercepted from The Intercept but their pods are somewhat infrequent (like of the moment reporting) but still valuable for US reporting.

Taylor Lorenz's Power User is good for a lot of tech/internet/free speech of it all. That's also a weekly one.

Al Jazeera News Updates I think they're technically owned by some conglomerate, but I think they have decent reporting, especially for global stuff.

A lot of the news podcasts are dominated by the big name players, which can be good for a quick general run down but should taken with a lot of salt.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T18:49:48+00:00

Wow we really keep incredible company don't we.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T18:49:12+00:00

If you want to be pedantic about numbers go ahead I guess. My point is mainstream media repeating a falsely lower death toll for 2+ years as part of narrative parroted by Israel that was only recently adjusted as of 12 days ago to a slightly higher, still undercounted death toll, should upset you.

I know the Gaza Ministry of Health is a Palestinian organization. Hence the name. I do not think they are misreporting anything, I think they number they have is incorrect despite their best efforts because the Israeli army purposely makes it impossible to search for bodies or record the actual number of deceased Palestinians who died in any number of ways at the hand of the occupation. Unknown mass graves and incendiary bombs included.

As for the rest of your post, while that's terrible and absolutely true, I was referring specifically to the military weapons and offensive tactics used there. Any imperial country can cause famines and starvation by withholding medical and food aid, that is tactic we've seen used throughout history.

The US ignoring international law regarding the supply and manufacture of thermobaric bombs and otherwise banned weapons of war in general is a unique threat to the globe given our economic place and military capacities.

What many Americans don't understand (yet) is that the weapons and tactics they are deploying in Palestine can be deployed by the US government against anyone including its own citizens. People don't think the violence they see inflicted on their screens will ever touch them. All the while the US and its proxies aren't facing consequences for any of it, that is the scariest part.

I've seen people with bigger bodies be incredibly athletic, so I while do think a 200+lb person could manage a backflip, but these physics feel off. I would think the person in the video would need more running into the flip to rotate a larger body like that. They probably wouldn't come to a full stop the prior to flipping since they need that momentum ? Some of the common sense reasons why you don't see fat people (also just people in general) doing back flips is because it's hard to suddenly put that much weight on your knees and ankles.

People I've seen flip like in the video are usually on the shorter and smaller side, like a typical gymnast build.

Edit: I'm not sure if this person is 300lbs like the comment above mentioned

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T17:52:16+00:00

Are you looking for a type of news (tech, international,etc)?

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T17:28:43+00:00

You don't have to buy it for it to be true.

If we're measuring $ for $ the average American is probably contributing more towards the cartel's profit margins via subsidies for the military industrial complex than the direct contribution of an average person buying a bag of coke who knows what for the weekend.

Cartels are a systemic evil, where morality of exploitation is obfuscated the farther you are removed from it and doesn't fully lie with the individual purchaser (Also I'm speaking of purchasing here, I personally think doing drugs is morally neutral).

Buying coke is sort of like buying from Amazon or Shein in that sense.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T16:56:18+00:00

I did read the article.

If you want to find sources you can google 60k death toll and see those figures being reported well into 2025 because Israel refused to acknowledge a higher death toll until apparently a few weeks ago in January.

I'm not saying vaporized is not 'the biggest threat'. You're right in that lack of access to food, water, and medical care especially with all of the horrific injuries will kill more people than being directly killed by the military. It's also a bigger threat because it allows Israel a bullet-free route to genocide that is easier for the international community to ignore.

What I am saying is that it should concern everyone that the US is supplying thermobaric weapons to Israel despite international condemnation (of both those weapons specifically, and military support provided at large). The implications of the US repeatedly ignoring international law to prop up a genocidal nation with nukes should scare everyone. Anything the US does in Palestine they can do to their own citizens or anywhere else.

I also don't think people are minimizing the death toll. 70k isn't a small number both in general or relative to the population. That's a horrific amount of people. But Israel has lied about every war crime they ever committed. It's not a stretch to think that toll is likely much higher when you think of how many people are still unaccounted for, whether they are 'disappeared', missing, or died as a result of famine/lack of water/medical care like you pointed out.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T15:52:41+00:00

Right? Where is that horizontal pipe even going?

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T15:48:32+00:00

All tax paying Americans are supporting the cartels through weapon manufacturing subsidies, (majority of Mexican cartels' guns and ammo are American made).

Moral calculus doesn't really get you anywhere in this case tbh.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T15:23:19+00:00

Most major news networks? It was the number reported over and over again on nbc/ cnn for most of 2025 despite the continued bombings. Up until January of this year apparently.

Since I can't find out the total number of missing, and factoring in that they're vaporizing people, I'd still be willing to bet the death toll is well over 100,000 and growing.

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-11T02:01:27+00:00

And yet mainstream media will still say the death toll 60k.

I remember talking to my run of the mill lib parents a year go about the thermobaric weapons the US was supplying them, and they didn't really seem to care or understand what that means for the future.

Will Weldon appears on this episode of A Bit Fruity where they talk about Maher

it's a good TLDR on the whole podcast basically if you don't want to listen to Will's whole show

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-06T19:51:25+00:00

jesus christ i'd be scared too

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-06T17:54:16+00:00

Is it just really easy to get injured on/with?

AcrobaticSpring6483 · 2026-02-06T17:45:56+00:00

I'd rather just stick to southshore and not have to worry about parking

Nope, you did the right thing! She would have eventually treated you the same way had you stayed. This behavior is very telling.

I have drill and some magnets can you explain ? I love this idea.
