Food warning labels
Calling for medical warnings on food with an unhealthful level of salt,
and a ban on their sponsoring sports events.
The importance that our society gives to these struggles over nothing
is pure foolishness. I don't pay them any attention, and I would be
glad to see less of a business built around them.

Genetic test discrimination
*Australia to ban life insurance companies from discriminating based on
genetic testing results.*
This is so that people will not hesitate to get tested early for genetic
predispositions that could be overcome by treatment.

Kids need more play
Special preschools in China allow groups of children to organize their
group play together, including making complex setups with construction toys.
I worry that Chairman Xi will find them threatening.

Oliver Campbell conviction overturned
UK thugs bullied Oliver Campbell into a false confession by interrogating
him over and over until they wore down his insistence on telling the truth.
Now, 30 years later, his conviction has been overturned.
The surprisingly high frequency of false confessions is well
established. Correcting these injustices one by one, years later, is
better than letting them stand, but it is not good enough. The thugs'
systematic methods of extracting false confessions from weak and
vulnerable people should be prohibited.

Greenwashing
Fossil fuel companies convince governments to spend money on
far-fetched "greenhouse gas reduction" programs that are unlikely to
result in any real reduction.
They seem to be intended as distractions to relieve pressure for
serious actions that could substantially reduce global heating.
Put that together with long sentences for the heroes that try to focus
attention on the need to curb global heating for real, and the planet
roasters have a clear shot to keep on roasting Earth until there's
little left to burn.
