I'm not really seeing the upside there. You're basically doing censorship for them. It would mess up their economy, but there's lots of other things that could be cut off first, if you controlled the entire Russian border somehow.

Ah, the Hitler method of suicide. Yeah, that could be.

Maybe. Per the article the oven was fine, though, and if nobody else was involved that means you'd expect the door was clear when she went in.

I don't know about suicide, but there's this curious bit:

The Nova Scotia Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration also said it issued a stop-work order on Oct. 22 for the Walmart’s bakery and a piece of equipment at the store. The order was lifted on Oct. 28 “after the oven was assessed and determined to have been operating as per the manufacturer’s requirements.”

From previous threads it sounds like these things all have escape mechanisms on the inside, and that would seem to include it. Maybe she had an unrelated medical problem at the worst possible time?

Yeah, that's about as hardcore as you get. Usually they're protesting something when they go for a really painful way, though, and it sounds like she was alone.

I'm not sure why this was downvoted. That must be especially rough, if you can remember being steps away from where the oven would be a bunch of times, just doing your thing.

Can't tell if serious.

Actually, it does sound more neutral to my ear, but I don't know why considering it's from the damn breakup of Yugoslavia, which ended with a genocide.

I'm confident it was never true. Case in point, for America: Most people are either black or female. Even looking at white men, "mysteriously", the vast majority of the great men of the past came from fancy backgrounds.

That's a very unusual example. If you're prepubescent you can get away with straight up murder in a lot of jurisdictions and basically go back to your life after a few years of lots of therapy and legal supervision.

I can do you one better: decide to explore near that baby gate that got left open.

Oh gee, I hadn't thought of that. I'll go tell the African children. /s

Just eyeballing the life stories I know, and looking at the actual statistics on social mobility, if you do everything right you can expect to climb up like a single rung of the socioeconomic ladder. On average. There's a great deal of luck involved there, even, and it's possible to do everything right and go down the ladder if, for example, something unexpected cripples you.
