THREAD Got Collusion?
In a 2009 interview, Patrick Brown, CEO and Founder of Impossible Foods, alluded to “driving up the price of a Big Mac.” /1
He stated: “A new study from researchers at the Oxford Martin School has found that a health tax on red and processed meat could prevent more than 220,000 deaths and save over US$40 billion in healthcare costs every year.” /2
The report was led by none other than Dr. Marco Springmann (Oxford) – a vegan activist and EAT author.
And which journal published the report?
The ‘Public Library of Science’ (PLoS) – “a nonprofit Open Access publisher, innovator and advocacy organization. /3
And who co-founded this journal?
None other than Impossible Foods CEO Patrick Brown. /4

IF the world were only 100 people:

-The biggest chunk would be 25 to 54 years old; the next largest 0-14; the smallest group is above 65. /1
31 of the 100 would be Christian; 23 Muslim, 15 Hindu, 7 Buddhist, rest of unknown faiths.
-More people (12) speak Mandarin than else, followed by Spanish (6), English (5), Hindi (4), and Arabic (3). The rest speak 6,500 other languages.

Read this thread on effects of misguided biofuel policies in the West on deforestation and massive carbon emissions.

The planet’s forests have the potential to sequester as much as a third of the carbon in the air. /1
Land use changes of natural forests are a key area around global carbon emissions.
Peatland forests such as the ones in Kalimantan, Indonesia, hold 12 times as much carbon as other tropical rainforests around the world. /2
The European Biofuel Mandate & the American Biofuels Law were designed to support soybean, wheat and corn farmers, not palm-oil producers in Indonesia. But they did do the latter causing massive slash-and-burn activities of peatland forests leading to unprecedented emissions. /3

#THREAD: the #Epstein case vs the #MichaelJackson case: for those talking about "getting away" with "crimes", let's take a look at how (white) privilege really works. And why nobody talks about Epstein, while #MJ is being subjected to another slanderous mockumentary. (1)
For a good comparison, we'll take a look at the timeline of the #Epstein case versus that of the #MJ case. You'll see the differences in approach, treatment and mediatic consequences by yourself. #JusticeforMJ #ExposeTheLiars (2)
miamiherald.com/news/local/art…
As per screenshot 1, the parents of #Epstein's alleged victim, a 14-y.o. girl, reported the alleged crime to the police. In 1993, the first allegations against MJ started with an extortion plan and a search for a "highly profitable settlement". (3) More: themichaeljacksonallegations.com/the-1993-alleg…

Are You Planning To Give Up?
Most of d important things in d world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying wen there seemed to be no hope at all. You do what U can for as long as U can & wen U finally can't U do d next best thing.

#ThursdayThoughts
When U’re pursuing a worthwhile goal, it’s almost inevitable that at some point you'll think 1/more of these:
-This is harder than I thought it would be.
-Why is dis taking so long?
-I'm getting nowhere with dis.
-I keep failing at dis goal.
-I can’t do dis; What was I thinking?
...And when you do have one or more of these thoughts, it’s very likely that you will want to give up. When that happens, remember to come back to this #Thread to stop yourself from quitting.
Follow it through...

THREAD: Body Language Analysis No.4360: GE's CEO Larry Culp's CNBC Interview & Subsequent Stock Sell-off • • #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence #LarryCulp #CEO #GE #GeneralElectric #CrisisManagement #Stock #MediaTraining #BodyLanguage #BodyLanguageExpert
1/ On Monday 12 November 2018, GE's CEO, Larry Culp gave an interview on CNBC. What follows is a partial nonverbal analysis of that exchange and some recommendations and ideas I would propose if he were one of my private clients.
2/ In a business setting, with rare exception, a man should always wear a navy or black suit. Even light grey suits should be avoided, let alone plaid, or beige. Only navy and black suits command the highest authority, rapport, and influence.

Okay, I'm going to do a thread going over & critiquing Ryan Faulk's (The Alternative Hypothesis) & Sean Last's recent videos.
Starting with Ryan's

Ryan starts out with saying that whites aren't politically all that exceptional. He says this because people in Europe don't support freedom of speech as much as people in America. Yes, his argument really is this stupid.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some things of those things #Thread
First, you're never going to win a head on battle with an adversary that's got you outgunned. That's not the point of the Resistance. The point is to create friction, make it hard for your adversary to operate, to increase transaction costs.
Second, resistance doesn't have to be a dramatic act. It can be a small act, like losing a sheet of paper, taking your time processing something, not serving someone in a restaurant. Small acts taken by thousands have big effects.
