I’ve read a few in Hungarian. Here’s one about the Hungarian election, here’s another about the Serbian election. Maybe machine translation can help?

But you know what? The documentary the Hungarian volunteers made to raise awareness is available with both English and Finnish subtitles on YouTube! It’s a bit long, but it might be worth a watch!

There haven’t been many English-language articles on the topic - I’m trying not to be paranoid about it, but it crossed my mind that it’s a bit suspicious. With Trump’s history and interference intentions, I think the importance of citizen preparation and organization cannot be overstated.

Anti-fraud measures played a huge part as well both in Hungary and Serbia. Groups of volunteers hung around voting stations, spotting and reporting irregularities. Sometimes getting threatened by burly men who brought dozens of impoverished people who sold their votes in vans and stuff like that. They’re the unsung heroes of these elections.

Romer suggests that the public health campaign against cigarettes may offer a useful model. That effort combined education about smoking’s health consequences with measures to reduce the promotion and portrayal of cigarettes, including eliminating paid tobacco product placement in entertainment. Portrayals of smoking in popular movies declined along with population smoking rates.

I feel like I’m missing something, but cigarettes were never integral to entire genres, like action movies (and video games). I mean, the plot of John Wick wouldn’t really change if Keanu had a cigarette in the corner of his mouth all the time, but it absolutely would without guns.

I also think we’ve come a long way since the Schwarzenegger-era of mowing down waves of bad guys while hip-firing without ever reloading, in terms of depicting ease-of-use.

EDIT: Read the paper and not just the article, the problematic part I was missing was the sanitized gun-violence in PG-13 movies, which kind of makes sense.

The implication is that the wife is exhausted because the husband doesn’t help enough in running the household. The obvious answer is that the husband should do more chores to help out. My man here suggests adding another wife, with the ultimate goal of getting laid more often.

I am now imagining a runaway-reaction-type situation where the removal of the husband results in the continued acquisition of more wives.
