Christmas fruit punch is an infusion that is consumed in Mexico, traditionally in December during the posadas and on Christmas Eve, although there are also people who start consuming it from September for the national holidays and from November during the eve of the day of the dead (mainly in Mexico City and its metropolitan area).
It is prepared by boiling the ingredients in large quantities to be served during typical Christmas and winter gatherings. Traditionally, it is served very hot in individual clay pots with portions of fruit, and may or may not contain a spirit (often rum), which is added after boiling to prevent evaporation. One of the main ingredients, which gives it its blood-red color, is hibiscus water (made by boiling hibiscus flowers in water to release their red coloring). The basic fruits are apple, guava, and tejocote (Mexican hawthorn).
Mexican ponche may or may not contain alcohol and is served hot. The version with alcohol is called "ponche con piquete" (spiked ponche) because it has a "piquete" (spike) of tequila, rum, whiskey, red wine, or champagne, presented as a traditional hot infusion or as a cocktail.
This drink is commonly found at street fairs set up outside churches, where it can be enjoyed with buñuelos (fritters) or tamales. It is also sold at Christmas markets in Mexico during the famous Guadalupe-Reyes Marathon.
It is also traditionally consumed in Guatemala, even before the holidays. Fruits such as papaya, melon, and apple are used, along with sweeteners like sugar, honey, and/or cinnamon.}

Was going to post an article to theory about using the theory of alienation empirically, but the paywalled science platforms have made it impossible to even copy/paste this stuff anywhere. Can't do the pdf either because it has identifiable info on it.
Anway, could have been a good discussion. Maybe I'll find the spoons for it some other time.
Try emailing the authors of the studies directly. I hear they are happy to share their work for free as they aren't the ones putting up a paywall. Worth a shot!
If copy paste is blocked using HTML, you could copy from the source or use Firefox reader mode and copy from that. If you have the PDF, couldn't you copy/paste from that using your own reader? Or do screenshots of the website or of the PDF or without the id info? Worst case, just post the title and link and describe the contents using your own words and we'll have to scale the paywall ourselves.
I tried that, but it pastes the words with numbers and snipped words in them.There seems to be all sorts of protections in these when you fetch them from these platforms, it's been doing my head in when annotating them for exams as well.
The paper is: Using Marx's Theory of Alienation Empirically by W. Peter Archibald. Wasn't able to find it anywhere other than these paywalled platforms, it's from a book that I also could not find. The text is a bit older so that is probably why.
