Organ sales

Do you think voluntary organ sales should be legal?

The trade in organs is a topic that evokes both hope and fear. On the one hand, supporters of legalizing voluntary sales emphasize a person’s right to decide about their own body and the possibility of reducing the dramatic shortage of life-saving organs. On the other hand, opponents warn of the inevitable growth of the black market, exploitation of the poor, and the degradation of human life’s value to that of a commodity. In the background are questions about the limits of individual freedom, the moral consequences of the body’s commercialization, and the risk of creating “biologically privileged” castes. Is opening the organ market a lifeline for the sick or a gateway to dystopia?

The Whole Truth About Pharmaceutical Companies

Do you think pharmaceutical companies aim to permanently cure diseases, or are they more focused on maximizing profits?

Do pharmaceutical companies truly want to cure us – or just keep us in a state of chronic treatment? This question is being asked more and more, not only by skeptics but also by ordinary patients. In a world where billions are made on illness, it’s hard not to question the priorities of the medical industry. There are accusations of hiding effective treatments and reserving real cures for the rich. For some, it’s a conspiracy theory – for others, a logical business decision. Who really cares about our health, and who about our wallets? See what others think – and take a stand in the poll.

Inheritance of Trauma and Memories

Do you think trauma or other experiences can be passed down through DNA from generation to generation?

Can we really carry fears that were never ours?
The inheritance of trauma through DNA is a topic that teeters between science and something much deeper. Epigenetics opens the door to hypotheses suggesting that our ancestors’ experiences can literally “reprogram” our genes. But where does biology end and upbringing begin? Are we born already carrying someone else’s emotional baggage, or is this just a narrative shaped by our family environment? And if ancestral memories really are encoded in us – the question is, why? See what others think – and decide for yourself who your fears truly belong to.

Psychiatric Evaluation and IQ Requirements for High-Ranking Public Officials

Should high-ranking public officials be required to undergo mandatory psychiatric evaluations and meet a minimum IQ threshold?

Should everyone who climbs the ladder of power truly be allowed to govern? Amid increasingly frequent scandals, irrational decisions, and embarrassing statements by politicians, a new proposal is gaining traction: mandatory psychiatric evaluations and a minimum IQ requirement for high-ranking officials. Supporters see it as a basic safeguard against madness and incompetence. Opponents warn of eugenics and power being seized by the so-called “superior.” Where does concern for governance quality end and dangerous selection begin? See what others think – vote in the survey.

Infidelity in a Relationship

Have you ever committed physical or emotional infidelity while in a committed relationship?

Infidelity—for some, it’s the ultimate betrayal; for others, a human mistake. But what truly counts as cheating? The line between innocent flirting and emotional drift is often blurry, and “non-physical” affairs can hurt more than sex itself. Society is divided between those who demand absolute loyalty and those who accept that feelings are unpredictable. Is betrayal always a conscious choice—or sometimes an escape? Or perhaps we each carry our own definition? Answer honestly, even if only to yourself.

Mandatory vaccination

In your opinion, vaccinations should be:

Vaccinations have sparked emotions for years. Supporters emphasize that herd immunity also protects those who cannot be vaccinated. Opponents point to the risk of adverse effects, the lack of full transparency in research, and concerns that mandates serve the interests of pharmaceutical corporations. In many Western countries, vaccinations are recommended, while in some Eastern European states children must receive a dozen or more mandatory doses. Is this a difference in public health policy, or a sign that the eastern part of the continent is a testing ground?
