Yeah, not to mention you need less than a tenth of a gram of vitamin C a day. It's ludicrously easy to get enough. So easy in fact, the human body never evolved a vitamin C storage system.

Another reason why anarcho capitalism is a dumb ideology

What are your top 3 Caliphates/ Sultanates/ Muslim kingdoms under a specific ruler?

Pick your own criteria. I mean this to be a personal preference question. If it's pushing back on conquerors, I would consider Mehmed II vs. crusades or Sultan Kudarat vs. the Spanish. Or you might consider Rashidun and the rest of the first four caliphs for how they carried the faith after the Prophet Muhammad. Would love to see your answers. Thanks!

The podcast The RFK Tapes might pique your interest. Not European but some very interesting incongruous circumstances.

Have you read Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy by Vincent Bugliosi? It’s massive, but I’m working my way though it at the moment and it’s really good. I’m still not convinced that a SS agent didn’t accidentally shot JFK in the confusion, but Bugliosi goes through the timeline and all the attendant conspiracies in great detail.

Or when they care more about public perception than competence. Most people opposed to big government aren't against the concept of regulation. They're against poor regulation that doesn't achieve what it's supposed to and overburdens the people it's supposed to protect.

That doesn't mean a massive bloated corrupt bureaucratic system is good either. Most people who want to do away with bloat still want there to be government. Most people who want true anarchy are still too young to even be out of school yet.

I’d love a reasonably simple book about the history of Wales. If there was an audio edition that would be great!

For ease of knowing about the subject, I recommend watching these series of videos on the Maya civilisation:

• Rise of Maya
• Maya Star War: Tikal - Calakmul War
• Why did the Maya civilization collapse?

Not exhaustive and detailed, but gives you a sufficient gist of the historical developments in the Maya world.

Organized crime is not despised by for manipulating the stock market.

Anyone else REALLY misunderstand the title and think it meant that archeologists discovered evidence that the ancient Maya had LiDAR technology in their tropical megapolis?

Still people manipulating the stock market, but they're no longer called criminals

Grew up having canned orange juice all the time! Loved when my grandma made it as she would rinse out the can it came in and let me use it as my drinking cup.

Because its assuming that only US problems matter while other countries are having a lot bigger problems than the war on drugs, like "oh no you can't do drugs legally" meanwhile in China there's currently an ongoing genocide or other countries where the government is tyrannical
