https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/apr/02/children-as-young-as-12-buying-and-selling-knives-and-weapons-via-the-internet. This is very concerning indeed, but locking more young people up for longer isn't the answer. Too often, #governments focus on #symptoms, & ignore the #causes of #social #problems.

We spend a lot of time talking about problems, effects, and causes. Sadly, we fixate on problems' effects rather than focus on their causes.

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. Are there briars in your path? Turn aside. That is enough. Do not go on to say, “Why were things of this sort ever brought into the world?” The student of nature will only laugh at you; just as a carpenter or a shoemaker would laugh, if you found fault with the shavings and scraps from their work which you saw in the shop.
 
[Σίκυος πικρός; ἄφες. βάτοι ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ; ἔκκλινον. ἀρκεῖ, μὴ προσεπείπῃς: τί δὲ καὶ ἐγένετο ταῦτα ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ; ἐπεὶ καταγελασθήσῃ ὑπὸ ἀνθρώπου φυσιολόγου, ὡς ἂν καὶ ὑπὸ τέκτονος καὶ σκυτέως γελασθείης καταγινώσκων ὅτι ἐν τῷ ἐργαστηρίῳ ξέσματα καὶ περιτμήματα τῶν κατασκευαζομένων ὁρᾷς.]

Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 8, ch. 50 (8.50) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]

durant un atelier de mon guide, un petit groupe picnicais ensemble près de la rivière à St-Jérome à l'heure du midi; un des participants nous expliquait une procédure complexe pour séparer les nuages
mon guide le laisse aller un bout de temps et lui dit "il y rien là, mon père m'a montré comment faire quand j'avais 9 ans."
il lève la main, regarde les nuages un moment, et les nuages se séparent

quand nous sommes seuls, je lui demande comment faire

The problem with politics is that everything gets bundled into a group and asking folk to vote for it means you expect them to agree with EVERYTHING.
That will never happen.
I am so far out in left field to most people that I could catch a boundary ball, BUT I disagree on some issues.
If you make being 'Liberal' or 'Socialist' about every single cause, you turn people off.
First win the battle for the government, then give people a free vote on the other matters.
Educate them and let them make informed decisions. Ramming your opinions down other folks' throats just alienates them.
Find the common ground, sort everything else out later.

If you want to do something good today (or tomorrow), here’s an old little project that can help you make a small contribution:

"En opposition avec l’automatisation du traitement de grand jeux de données qui prévaut actuellement, l’analyse causale affirme que toute conclusion statistique est assujettie à un ensemble d’hypothèse sur les relations causales entre les variables – hypothèses qui ne peuvent être formulées que par un humain ayant des connaissances extérieures sur la signification de ces variables et les relations qui les lient."
