35 Rock-Solid Facts That People Would Rather Remain Unaware Of, According To Netizens

The stigma is REAL. Like it's not already difficult enough.

One of my favourite quotes about mental illness is along the lines of "The next time someone tells me I need to be stronger and just get over my illness I'm going to ask them to come over and whack then in the knees with a baseball bat, then tell them to walk it off."

Ignorance doesn't help, people don't understand mental illness, if they can't see it, it doesn't exist. People need to be educated properly. Just because you're smiling or laughing, doesn't mean you don't have mental health issues. RIP Robin Williams....

It is. My son is bipolar.

It also has physical symptoms so it's not 'all in your head'

After the worst economical crashes the different countries all over the world realised how bad the amassing of wealth and control was for the economy. They'd seen the damage that people like Pullman and Rockefeller had done by buying up the direct competition and then dictating the prices. So the leading countries founded antitrust divisions within their governments, that were supposed to watch over companies and every buyout of a smaller company by a bigger one was supposed to be stopped if it would thin out too much competition or the buying company would become too big, so the situation we have now with companies like Disney, Nestle, Google and what Elon Musk is doing shouldn't happen... But those offices have either been depowered, like in the USA, and/or have become corrupt and close their eyes and don't intervene.

It's just capitalism. That's it. The capitalists are just participating in the global economic system. Change the system.

At the rate of $1 per second, it would take you 12 days to earn a million dollars...and 31 years to earn a billion dollars. The richest man in the world (CEO of the parent company of Louis Vuitton) could spend $1 per second for 6,442 years before running out of money (presuming there was no such thing as interest because, obviously, in reality, he'd never run out).

It needs to be the other way round actually. The richer you are, the more taxes you pay. Regular working people need a break fgs.

Tax the wealth not the paycheck.

Duh.

Tax the billionaires out of existence before they make us all extinct!

I think some do, but they are hard to find

Politicians....the cost of living is tough on us all, then they raise taxes for everyone so they have less then make sure they get a pay rise greater than inflation and see what else they can get on the expenses gravy train

Tory MP George Freeman quit his ministerial role as he said he could not afford his £2000 a month mortgage on a salary of £118000. This will free up some time to take on work outside of parliament. God knows where the rest of his salary is going. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-68133873

I truly wish all the MAGA supporters would realize and understand this! Nothing that has been done "for them" in recent times, has actually benefitted a person in their tax bracket or situation. Every single change that the MAGA folk support has benefitted the rich. I say this as an independent.

Except for Bernie Sanders. And AOC. And a few others. Very few.

There’s a conspiracy theory that those idiot climate change protesters that throw soup on famous paintings are paid to do it by fossil fuel and oil companies. One of the only conspiracies that I might believe

Um, existential threat to current generations in many parts of the world; super storms, landslides, wildfires, clean water & food scarcity...

"Climate change is made up by the left to try and fear monger the rest of us. We're perfectly fine! " Obviously, I don't personality feel this way. I'm just really tired and fed up of politics getting in the middle of something that legitimately effects every, single person's life. Anything that effects the entrie planet, definitely has no business in politics. Both (or multi) sides should agree to this and stop the bs!

Once again it's the ultra rich that produce the most emissions from their yachts and private jets. All the while they tell me to give up eating meat. I think Hypocrisy itself is an existential threat.

Climate has been happening since the earth was formed. Prove me wrong!

And having one doesn't make you any less a mother. I've seen comments over time putting down those who have C-sections as "taking the easy way out" and being less of a woman and/or mother than those who had vaginal births. My wonderful niece would not be alive now if not for the C-section my SIL got.
