Everything they do is to just gut govt indiscriminately so they can get tax breaks for billionaires and privatize everything so billionaires can make more money. Nothing is done FOR Americans
Democrats need to come up with new ideas for health care. Republicans will weaponize a Medicare for All system. Need fresh ideas to make health care more affordable.
They don't believe government has any function (except to make Elon & corporate CEOs money). Public health & safety is a huge function of government, just like national defense and the postal service. They aren't profit-based. The private sector can't provide them (& is often antithetical to them.)
yes... and that's part of his reason to end it... like HUD... which trump believes only POC use... and welfare only POC use... his racism blinds him to everything.
Do they forget about the Indiana HIV epidemic that Mike Pence instigated by altering opioid formulas so that drugs had to be injected intravenously to work? Very few of those Hoosiers were homosexual. 🤦♂️ 🤦♀️
The R tide never turned toward compassion under Reagan, it just became too politically costly to openly cheer on death, once straight people's kids were affected. Now they've got the murderers in office who'll allow ""nature"" to kill HIV's ~only~ victims: gay men & poor Black communities.
As hard as it is for sane people to wrap their minds around, this administration is taking action every day to endanger our health and potentially kill us. It is crazy and terrible, but it is happening. Act accordingly.
In the 80s my sweet neighbor, proud of his home, always invited people in to see his decorating. Always bought candy from the school kids programs. Had a hello for everyone. He passed from a pneumonia complication of AIDS. I don't want to go backwards. Too many die needlessly.
HIV and AIDS are what makes America Great, lets do everything we can to bring them back!! Says the imbecile / felon / rapist / Russian Agent, Comrade Krasnov.
Heartbreakingly shocking on so many levels. Clearly, a government that, once again, views HIV/AIDS as a “gay disease” that is meant to eradicate the LGBTQ+ community.
True. I should clarify by saying I mean recreational drug use is the causal agent rather than recreational drug use is a mode of transmission of the causal agent. The term get was imprecise.
He has said publicly that he questions the validity of the germ theory of disease, and has also endorsed the miasma theory. He's not a serious person, though we have to take him seriously now.
Do none of these people remember when aids was front page news? All those old white guys in the trump admin have to remember how awful it was and the fear of being someone who got it from a transfusion or unknown reasons. It wasn’t just the « gays »

If they don't like you, they want you to die.
So far, so good in the USA!
That would explain the worm in RFK Jr.'s head. My bet is Elon and Trump, plus many GoP senators, have worms, too.
