Our brains don't think in terms of statistics, we are very bad at numbers. That's a scientific fact, see Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Fast and Slow". So to say that if 20% of the world prison population is located in the US then it's normal to think about the US when you hear "solidarity confinement" is plain wrong. There's no media bias like with school shootings either, you don't read about US prisons in European media every week. Even the mainstream US media don't talk about US prisons much. Somehow you fail to see that in the discussion about Danish and Swedish prisons one should probably consider Danish and Swedish prisons.

Does the text suggest that idea? The issue is that the teacher was using a school computer to store and watch porn. In a class room. The unintended video playback is just one of many potential consequences.

Understood, thank you for your thorough contribution.

and how it’s common enough that people have a casual laugh over their “shat myself” stories

That's how we deal with the trauma.

Do you mean when he started to chip the population through the covid vaccines? jkjk

Social media would be drowning in negative posts about Bill Gates if they were a thing in the 90s. The only difference, perhaps, is back then the industry was still at its early years, it was quickly evolving, so many brilliant people had a chance to achieve something too. Today, it's huge corporations where each individual has virtually no impact.
