The case is heavily publicized because 1) many woman relate to a lack of postpartum support in this country and 2) the not guilty by reason of insanity plea which hinges on a 18 minute psychotic break resulting in three murders and is inconsistent with current medical understanding of postpartum psychosis.
The question is whether they'll be able to offset the blame onto the medical establishment and answer seems to be yes, as it seems several of the medical professionals involved in her case may be successfully sued for malpractice.
Within the medical community the case has already changed the practice of many clinicians relating to post partum psychiatric care unfortunately being less likely to be accepted by a practice (and referred to often scarcely available specialized centers) or the threshold to institutionalize patients against their will is now lower given the concern that they may be a danger to their community and that any criminal act theyay engage in could be later framed on their treatment team.
Just for clarification, if we're talking about sub replacement fertility rates then it would be "brown countries" except for India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Iran, Lebanon, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Costa Rica and Cuba and more. Might be an invalid generalization now.
A century and more of propoganda in the US has led to the perception that any regulation or check or balance on the private sector is socialism.
The average American is extremely brainwashed from a young age and is mostly incapable of questioning their presumptions on this. They're trained to happily lick the boot of their Epstein class and accept the status quo. Only a few break out of the trance in their lifetimes, that is, if something breaks the cosmic cycle of production and consumption they live by.
Hopefully for theirs and the world's sake the pendulum will swing back hard and they will embrace some type of spiritual successor to FDR / an American born version of Zohran Mamdani to run the country.
You're absolutely right but everything that sides with labor over capital is considered socialism in the US. Banning child labor, two day weekend, Medicare/Medicaid, social security... These were all labelled socialist policies at one point or another.

They do know if you have insurance in most cases but it's against federal law to discriminate based on insurance coverage based on EMTALA and the civil penalty is over $100,000.
This was once the case in the US prior to EMTALA laws being introduced in 1986. Which is pretty dystopian, even if it's not the case today.
It wasn't so much the insurance company though. It was private hospitals dumping uninsured patients into public ones without stabilizing care even if they were actively dying because they didn't want to absorb the cost. Essentially pure evil / end stage capitalism.
Cool if you're not familiar with the status of the current US Canada trade dispute since its not relevant for most of the world but..
Aside from China (which has much more leverage), Canada is the only country to apply significant retaliatory / counter tariffs on the US and they're doing this despite being an historical ally of the US. Most other allies rolled over immediately.
Canada has already demonstrated outsized resilience for its stature against US economic aggression.
Closing a waterway that acts as a major trade route is considered an act of war. Makes sense for a country in Iran's position where options are limited and their existance has been threatened by Western elites / the Epstein class repeatedly. Makes absolutely no sense in this dispute.
Altruism is human nature. I don't know why we tend to label negative traits as human nature (which I'm also very much guilty of). I imagine it's partly because individualistic societies have had disproportionate power and influence over the past few centuries though it's disappointing nonetheless.
Many developing nations like India, Vietnam and Ethiopia are going to leapfrog the fossil fuel detour and go straight to renewables which will also help.
As a millenial brown dude I can definitely see this happening. Basically all the feedback I got growing up was that white (and some Asian) people cannot handle the spice in our food which is why it was often made fun of (along with Mexican food). A lot has changed since then but there is an innate reflex to tell white and some East Asian friends and colleagues to be careful with it and it's hard to break. No one wants to see another person get ill from their food simply because their digestive tract is not accustomed to it.
It's very similar to the reflex that makes me stop my toddler from eating anything with spice but then she actually likes it and I'm like oh yeah, that tracks, you're a mini version of me 😆.
I will say that palates universally have broadened in the past few decades. When I was growing up it wasn't uncommon to see people (even grown adults) physically recoil, make faces or pinch their noses in the presence of Indian food and a lot of folks have really stepped up their game since then.
How Europe Underdeveloped Africa by Walter Rodney should be required reading for every Westerner. I hear this argument so often that it clearly points to a lack of education on the matter.
This is the morally repugnant and despicable (yet malevolently "clever") nature of colonialism - it intentionally used beaureaucracy and macro economics to make its victims appear as if they consented to their own dehumanization and exploitation.
European colonists actively undermined African textile and iron smelting industries.
They intentionally created the conditions where slave raiding and military expansion became necessary for economic success.
Therefore, for centuries, the productive minds and bodies of young Africans were sold into servitude, removing any potential for innovation or development. For centuries.
The spoils of which went where? To Europeans and their descendants. A global imbalance that persists even to this day.
To turn around and say: Well, you brought this upon yourself is so morally tone deaf it brings to question whether humankind is even capable of humanity given the scale of the crime that was committed.
I urge everyone to please read outside of your niche interests and learn more about the world so that this type of misinformation doesn't continue to disseminate.
I don't care where you're from, you were raised on some type of propaganda one way another. The only way out of the box is to read, expose yourself to and listen to the perspective of others. Otherwise your worldview will always be what it must not be - incomplete.

It's past threshold now at 1.9 and falling quickly.
Colonialism and capitalism absolutely.
I'd argue patriarchy and slavery already existed with other justifications though Christianity was used to entrench them further.

Yes they are. LLMs are also new enough that we've had perhaps one or two graduating classes that would have had access to it the entire time.
I think theyre saying it should all be called Canada (meaning settlement) including present day US.

Did the US adhere to international law even when it was a 'sane' country? Can't leave any options off the table.

The feeling is mutual
