  • I’d be interested to know! My guess is the results would be similar. The article does say:

    Professor Pagnini adds, "Unlike traditional mindfulness interventions that require active engagement, this study highlights how situational interruptions alone may be sufficient to produce similar effects.

    But also!!!

    44% of those who offered their seats in the experimental condition reported not having seen Batman

    which is interesting (how do you not notice Batman?! :D)

    What an absolute load of nonsense. I have spent a decent amount of time in Qatar. I watched what were effectively slaves working away to build stadiums and hotels. It is a fair statement to point out the irony of a place with very strong censorship criticise censorship.

    If the BBC lauded a foreign country for the equivalent of bloody Sunday I would point that out too so honestly just jog on.

    Edit: just to reiterate, I agreed with the premise up front. It’s not a bad article. That doesn’t take away from a censorship heavy regime criticising censorship through their mouthpiece and I fully acknowledge that AJ is generally decent so no, it’s not racism.
