“In a recent Ditch the Label study, we spoke to 7,347 people about bullying. We asked respondents to define bullying and then later asked if, based on their own definition, they had ever bullied anybody. 14% of our overall sample, so that’s 1,239 people, said yes. What we then did was something that had never been done on this scale before; we asked them intimate questions about their lives, exploring things like stress and trauma, home lives, relationships and how they feel about themselves.”

Snake oil

Snake oil is a term used to describe deceptive marketing, health care fraud,
or a scam. Similarly, “snake oil salesman” is a common expression used
to describe someone who sells, promotes, or is a general proponent of
some valueless or fraudulent cure, remedy, or solution. The term comes from the “snake oil” that used to be sold as a cure-all
elixir for many kinds of physiological problems. Many 19th-century
United States and 18th-century European entrepreneurs advertised and
sold mineral oil (often mixed with various active and inactive household herbs, spices, drugs, and compounds, but containing no snake-derived substances whatsoever) as “snake oil liniment”, making claims about its efficacy as a panacea. Patent medicines
that claimed to be a panacea were extremely common from the 18th
century until the 20th, particularly among vendors masking addictive
drugs such as cocaine, amphetamine, alcohol and opium-based concoctions or elixirs, to be sold at medicine shows as medication or products promoting health.

The transcendentals (Latin: transcendentalia, from transcendere “to exceed”) are the properties of being, nowadays commonly considered to be truth, beauty, and goodness. The concept arose from medieval scholasticism.
