^How the hell do you sleep at night when you believe that everyone and everything is trying to kill you?!
And I don’t know how old you are, but I’m 39 and my great grandma is 104; if someone is trying to kill us all, then they’re doing a pretty shit job of it
I sleep fine by not taking risks effecting my health.
A few months ago a cast member from the old TV series Night Court died at the age of 70... it was the blonde lady Markie Post whose father was a physicist and he died at the age of 96. Perhaps life expectancy will not be longer for the new generations as people believe.
Harry Anderson died at 65, Charlie Robinson at 75... that makes 3 dead out of 6 pictured for this generational sample.

You can't base current life expectancy on a snapshop of 6 people from an 80's sitcom, they could have all died at 50 and in the grand scheme it doesn't mean anything because some people are going to die young. You have to look at the average life span world wide over time and it's obvious without argument that people are living way longer today and it's still trending upwards.

TLDR: stupid people are everywhere in every group, including 'smart' people (ie doctors)
Highlights:
Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
The probability that a certain person be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

Take a snap shot of Americans at a shopping centre... its pretty obvious that the majority are over weight compared to past generations. Do you think obesity and the new line of GMO foods is what eradicated infectional deaths?

People were fat in 2012 as well when that study was done and the average life span was never longer. I will agree it's possible that some other health issues might start having some effect on how long the average person lives but you also have to take into consideration new treatments and medications are always coming online to combat not only symptoms of that but also diseases that previously weren't treatable.
Overall we're living longer, if you want to argue we could even live longer if we were healthier I can't argue with that.

From what I understand childhood deaths and not using soap were the main reasons why life expectancy was low overall.
I think cancer and heart disease outcomes were very well calculated before the great depression and how the oligarchs bought up American farmlands.
The pesticide glyphosate is another one of their weapons thats currently in our food.

Can confirm..was choking down that shit while I was there
And here I thought it was just the Thunder Bay water was crap. I swear drinking it made me feel thirstier somehow. My roommates and I pretty much exclusively drank bottled water the whole time we were there. Looking back not the most environmentally friendly solution but it was quite a while ago now.

Interesting how that Ted speakers child got tumours all over the liver... I wonder if the grandfather did any farming involving pesticides and it was a generation causation.
Im not a fan of this podcast but actually collect the guest speakers speeches, he lays out depopulation in 2018 before Corona hit... the guys a genius.
Prince Philip on what should be done about "overpopulation"

Prince Philip did actually write in the foreword to a 1986 book titled “People As Animals,” which reads, in part:
I just wonder what it would be like to be reincarnated in an animal whose species had been so reduced in numbers than it was in danger of extinction. What would be its feelings toward the human species whose population explosion had denied it somewhere to exist… I must confess that I am tempted to ask for reincarnation as a particularly deadly virus, but that is perhaps going too far.
