Your approach is not a defence of reason but an abdication of it.

LOL

it’s a distortion of history

Of course. But that doesn't change the fact that your criticism was wrong. You criticised the article by saying it was incorrect when that wasn't the case. It doesn't matter how egregious the article's content is, you were still making a straw man argument. Do better please.

as a defence

You're confusing my defence of reason for defense of the British Empire.

It is not just the number of conflicts but their intensity and impact that weigh against the claim of a ‘mostly peaceful’ process.

I disagree. The word "most" is about quantity. There's no ambiguity.

the process of decolonisation involved significant armed conflict, contrary to the article’s claim of a mostly peaceful withdrawal

This is a non sequitur. Significant armed conflict doesn't contradict a claim of mostly peaceful withdrawal.

There would only be a contradiction if the armed conflicts were in the majority. You've haven't shown that. Or even claimed it. I don't know why you're saying the armed conflicts were contrary to the article's claims.

Article uses too many words to say too little. Not convinced at all.

What is not known, yet, is whether TUS can induce or stabilize lucid dreams

Wollberg and Berry expressed confidence that their approach will work based in part on the successful induction of lucid dreams by other methods, including a 2014 study that found “stimulation in the lower gamma band during REM sleep influences ongoing brain activity and induces self-reflective awareness in dreams.”

That's a population transfer or eviction of lands.
