One of the most irksome part of Vinay Prasad's anti-mask activism, including mocking individuals choosing to wear masks, is that he's an oncologist by training. It was standard before Covid for some patients oncologists treated to need to wear masks.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

If you think there can be any kind of valid justification for deporting a child with cancer, with none of their meds, and interrupting their treatment through the chaos and trauma of that experience- I am begging you to reflect on where your humanity has gone because at some point you parted with it

Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade

We must be able to talk about the concerns disabled people have over assisted dying policies, without immediately assuming they want to take the right away from other people We want the right to live with dignity. That’s all We don’t want to be fodder for a eugenics program disguised as compassion

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

There's an increasing number of large 'leftist' influencers dunking on disabled people from this site over on X. One targeted me specifically. There's no solidarity with disabled people. We are in the midst of a huge eugenics moment, and most of the left is no better than the right:

“Functional medicine” was invented in the 1990s by Jeffrey Bland to sell dietary supplements and shot to fame by its poster boy, Mark Hyman. It is a marketing term designed to confuse patients, promote pseudoscience, and sow distrust in mainstream medicine. It is a scam.

Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?
