It’s a synecdoche.
You can’t have communist countries in “Latan” America because their industrial base and population expertise is even worse than the USSR. Not to defend the CIA’s actions, but Venezuela was never going to work out.
I like how you, with actual concrete real-world experiences you are sharing, are being downvoted by silent armchair enthusiasts who mostly just like GDPR because they get the sense that it’s vaguely bad for Facebook.

Yes. Everyone disagreeing with you is just making excuses for manufacturers to turn customers into serfs.
Yeah, maybe when we’ve exhausted the sun’s net output.

You people obsessed with reducing humanity’s energy usage are so tiresome. Anyone who actually cares about the well-being of humanity should be focused on increasing the amount of energy available. I want to climb the…

Sperm banks allow sperm to sit exposed to air (in a container) for 15-30 minutes to allow for liquefaction. Sperm actually have a rather long autogenous lifetime.
It's fairly expensive. You're looking at around $400/yr on a year-to-year basis for a single sample (which is only enough to get around a 30-70% chance of pregnancy depending on delivery method and sperm health).
You have to be able to guarantee that your liquid nitrogen powered freezer (expensive) will never fail even once over decades of storage (extra expensive). I'm not sure what kind of profit margins sperm banks are…
This kind of thinking is harmfully simplistic. When you rely on rules of thumb ("this sort of thing should go slowly") to make public health decisions, you are going to harm people. In the US, we suffer from an insane…
The monotonic IQ increase can be attributed to improved nutrition and schooling. However, most evidence suggests that intelligence is genetically heritable to a large degree. Improved nutrition only goes so far; a…
Freezing sperm costs on the order of $200-400 per year depending on how far you pay in advance. Worth paying if you're getting a vasectomy, but probably not worth it for this kind of (hopefully) temporary BC.
