It's only entrapment if the suspect would not have engaged in the criminal activity without the outside influence from the LEO. An undercover cop making connections with drug dealers to aquire evidence isn't entrapment. An undercover cop blackmailing or otherwise causing you to sell drugs you had no interest in dealing in the first place is entrapment.

Propaganda does not have to have a hidden agenda. Literally the "I want you" uncle Sam poster is propaganda. That agenda was pretty obvious, there was no question who was behind it and it was pretty clear why it was commissioned in the first place.
There has been propaganda encouraging car-pooling, reusing materials, conserving electricity, promoting employment etc, and many of them even had credits as to who the message was coming from.
Propaganda is not inherently evil, but it's important to understand the context and where it's coming from.
Yes, but people who order a burger medium can still get sick. Not to mention heightened risk of cross contamination with ready to eat foods.
It's just safer to not use meat from a source known to have food-borne bacteria. Food safety is designed with many layers of protection, if you already know the first layer has failed, an unsafe source of food, then you're now counting on kitchen staff to protect you.
Not to say kitchen staff are inherenrly unreliable, but during a weekend dinner rush with low pay and high pressure, things can go wrong, so it's just best to take out food that is already a risk.
American here. Would you care to explain to me how Israel can be compared to Nazis? My stupid brain can only understand Good guy vs bad guy movie tropes. Please give me a break.
I went to public school and can clearly see the comparison between a far-right Zionist Israel and Nazism without getting tripped up on the Jews being the largest target during the Holocaust. Not only that, but with the shrinking of Palestinian owned land and illegal Israeli Settlers I can also make the comparison to Manifest Destiny and the relocation of Native American people, even though Palestinians aren't Cherokee.
Attempting to expand Israeli lands for Israeli jews and pushing out Palestinians with no source of aid for those displaced, as well as blocking aid and giving extremely short timelines to escape the encroaching Frontlines very much falls in line with Nazi ideology.
The Nation of Islam and the American Nazi Party had common goals despite being mutually exclusive. I don't think it's that far of a stretch to compare Israel with the Nazis.

Girls go to HD 189733b to get a degree, boys go to Kepler 11b to get drunk on Hennessy?
It already is an option in certain states in the US and I think parts of Europe.
Close. He died on 4/30, he was born on 4/20. But there were many deaths at Columbine High School on 4/20/1999.
Problem drinking and alcoholism aren't the same though. 9 out of 10 excessive drinkers aren't alcohol dependent. So yeah, while many people who at some point have a problem with drinking can learn to moderate without future issues, I don't know if most of them would fall into the alcohol dependency category.
When I replied, you didn't have all of that info in there. Good for you though, if it works then great!
Yeah I'm going to have to agree. I'm an alcoholic myself and this is a problematic way of living with it. Moderation seldom works for alcoholics as it is and by putting your choice to drink on someone else's offerings seems to just be a way to escape any blame should it end in full relapse.
Everybody's journey is different though so I'm not going to judge. But at no point was I able to stop drinking until I straight stopped drinking. As they say "one drink is too much and a hundred isn't enough."
This War of Mine. Honestly can't believe nobody else has mentioned it.
You play as a group of civilians in a war torn country. By day you craft things needed for survival like a stove for cooking, guns for protection, barricades to prevent raiders. At night you send one person with a backpack to scavenge an area of your choice for things like food, medicine, supplies etc. The others will either sleep or guard the property. Things you do while scavenging have real effects on your characters. Decided to rob an elderly couple? Your characters will react based on their personality.
Things become grim fast if you decide to start robbing supplies or get attacked. Your players get sick, become depressed, starve, get hurt etc. I've never made it to the end.
It's a great way to understand the struggles of being a civilian in a war. The Polish government actually recommends it for educational purposes and the devs have donated a lot of proceeds to charities serving people impacted by war, including Ukraine most recently.
