Women experiencing sexual violence on canadian campuses is something like 20-25%. The MeToo moment and the work around institutional coverups has gone some distance to raise awareness. The sad truth is that sexual abuse is pervasive.
In canada, some 20% of national team level athletes have experienced sexual abuse, maltreatment or assault
Data in Germany shows the scale of abuse in the Lutheran Church is of the same order as the catholic, a fact that is virtually unknown in Germany, and little discussed.

The (New Deal) Revenue Act of 1935 raised the top rate to 79% on incomes over $5 million (roughly $100 million+ in today's dollars).
A lot of problems solved right there.
On top of that, what’s the last war they won? Maybe the war in Pacific.
You called it.
To say nothing if our pension plans, which love war, apartheid, and genocide.
We need tools like this. The university is indeed under siege. Without action, soon, we’ll have no public institutions and goods left.
“These crimes were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption, extreme misogyny, and the commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls from different parts of the world,” the experts said." www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...
