Why are alt-right politicians becoming more popular?

I think that this is a very complicated topic. It might be because people are craving change. A change for something better. They associate past governments with not being able to appeal to their expectations, so they decide to choose alternative ways. Something that they have never tried before. Sometimes, in countries like Brazil, which are on the verge of collapse, people might realize that the only way to fix their country is by using force, which in a way makes sense. We need to remember that the people decide to elect these politicians. It's their decisions and what the majority considers good.

People are being encouraged to use public transport even though it's already running at it's full capacity.

There a lot of campaigns which are meant to encourage people to use public transport instead of commuting with their cars. However, during rush hours Warsaw's tansport is being literally overflooded with human mass. Sometimes you need to give the bus a pass, beacuse you can't fit in there. If more people started using public transport, people eventually will realise that it's inconvienient beacause of the crowds and switch to cars, then they might eventually switch back to public transport, and then the other people will switch to cars. We might fall in a loophole. We shouldn't expect more people to use public transport until we improve it's capacity. I am not saying that public transport in Warsaw is bad, I just think it should be able to fit more passengers.

Social media may harm human communication

Humans are one of the most social organisms on Earth. We interact with other people on a daily basis. Each day we are around hundreds and hundreds of people. However, this does not mean that we talk to everyone. Nowadays, people use texting as their main way of exchanging information about our lives. We call only when something can't wait or is very important. Instead of meeting up to talk face to face we prefer to text the other person, whether we are looking for advice, have a bad or we're just bored. Back in the day people would communicate mostly by talking in person, which positively impacts how we act around other people, makes us less shy. Talking with people face to face often might make you more comfortable when giving speeches for example, or when you have to give someone some kind of bad news, if your main form of communication is texting, you may becomeshy when talking to newly met people, or others will just find talking with you boring and not interesting, especially if you're acting different than you do when texting. There are some tough topics that you just shouldn't text about. Relationships, losing a loved one, simply giving bad news or talking about a tough topic. It might be that in the future we will avoid face to face interaction and just stick to communicating online, which is not a good way of socialising.

The fact that you're not the best, doesn't mean you shouldn't be proud

The 2018 World Cup ended with a victory for France and Croatia taking the 2nd place. Even though they lost, Croatian people were so overwhelmed by the succes of their team, that they didn't care that they lost, advancing to the finals was a huge shock for them to begin with. It might even be that Croatians appreciated their 2nd place more than France appreciated their win. The final match took place during my stay in Croatia so I had a chance to visit the fan-zone full of Croatian and French people. After the match the fans showed no hostility towards each other, in fact both nationalities cheered together. I think that this shows that even though we might not be the best at something, the only thing that matters is how much work you had to put into this thing and whether you can truly appreciate it.

Would you consider going vegan?

I personally can't imagine myself going full vegan. The biggest disadvantage of the switch would be the constant need to be aware of what you're ordering when eating out. What's more, I dont have time to prepare proper, vitamin rich vegan meals. Places like the school cantine hardly ever offer a vegan menu, same goes for some hotels etc. When buying animal products I always look for the ones which caused the least harm to animals, however excluding meat from my diet, at least today, is something that I don't think would go well.

Would you like to spend a week in the Mandarin Oriental?


Definitely yes. It would be a nice adventure and a possibility to discover how the rich “exist”. Especially since the price of 600 £ is much less than I have expected. Spending a night or two wouldn’t result in going bankrupt for an everyday person. It might also just be a very good vacation. You don’t hava to worry about anything and there’s always someone to assist you. It might help you relieve stress and help you relax. I’m also very curious as to how good the food served in their restaurant really is.

Is it possible that we will stop being a throwaway society?


The possibility of us stopping being a throwaway society is usually met with doubts. I think that it is very unlikely. Even in the past, our ancestors would simply dump anything they no longer want or need. It is the same with animals. If no longer need something whats the point in keeping it? The art of recycling has improved big time recently, allowing us to reuse even more resources. We wont ever stop throwing things away. We can only try to throw away less.

Why do people believe in supernatural things like magic, astrology, ghosts if they have science?


I think that the main reason is the fact that we seek explanation for everything we don't understand. Even the slightest, stupidest thing. What is more, we like to believe that the world is not randomised based on our choices, but that there's something dictating the outcome. Back in the day people would come up with many things just to make their lives a little bit easier to comprehend the beliefs dont tend to die out easily, so they were passed onto other generations, hence people in the modern world like to have their own understanding of some things.

Who or what is to blame for obesity in modern world?

To begin with, I think that the main thing to blame for it are our primitive instincts. This is the reason why we like sugar so much in the first place. However, the food companies started exploiting it, using sugar as a cheap additive used to increase the taste of the product, which will result in customers choosing that maker again, because of how nice it tasted and satisfied our brain. Still, we are also to blame. We get to choose what we eat and falling thousands of times for the same marketting trick each year, we are responsible for our bad diet habits. I don't mean that we should only buy special, expensive and eco-firendly products, but we should study the table of contents carefully and sometimes spend something extra if it is worth it.

Should people spend money on space exploration?

   In my opinion this is quite a tough one. I am not a scientist or a physicist of any kind, but I'll try to make my arguments sound good.
   To begin with, I consider space exploration something essential. We still don't know much about space. We've barely touched it. We don't know what lies ahead of us. We might find new life forms or a solution to the problems we have. We might find new useful minerals. What is more, by developing new space shuttles etc. aviation may benefit, which will result in better travel.
   To sum up, in my opinion we need to explore space even if it involves money and sacrifice, because it will help us achieve a nicer future.
