These mofos are about to gut Medicaid and other social programs but for days all they’ve reported on is Joe Biden’s health.
And fuck every democrat that went on tv bashing Joe instead of talking about the craven shit Republicans are about to do to Americans.

Realizing that disease is not the fault of the sick is such a bonkers thing to have to do.
Imagine if people realized that poverty wasn't the fault of the poor.
Perhaps even realizing that "bad thing" isn't the fault of the victim.
Abolish punching down plz 💅

The deeper meaning behind "almost no healthy children die of the measles" is that, when children do die of the measles, it's only ever because they were already ill. And the deeper meaning behind that is "well, we can't save 'em all." And that's just...17th century thinking.

The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.

The advent of germ theory, vaccines, sanitation, and antibiotics, in this view, indirectly lead to an increase in social services, and a decrease in capital punishment, murder, slavery, and torture. In effect, it raised the value of human life in human eyes.

As I was saying, they are fighting over MORE cuts not less. Cruelty is the point.

I PROMISE YOU. Most immigrants add more to our country, society and economy than this woman ever has. She’s nothing more than an embarrassment.

What we really need to do is put all of the admin officials into a Jeopardy-style game where the only category is "Constitution" and the prize is you get to keep your job.
