I mean…what happens in Texas…also happens in Berta.
Fucking embarrassing. 😡

In our case I think it is fair to say marginalization of a vulnerable population whereas in Texas it was just a choice by a religious sect. Two very different demographics.

jujubee76.bsky.social•7 days ago

Mmm I don’t know. I don’t doubt the marginalized vulnerable, that’s definitely a thing, but we also have quite the religious sect. Sadly my family is all up in that bullshit. Aside from the obvious population size differences… they aren’t that different.

They did have to evacuate last year for wildfires, sometimes people don’t get back on track with things for a while.

Why "Berta"? You know there's plenty of other places having measles outbreaks, right?

Vaccinate your crotch goblins.

If you think it’s just ‘Berta, 🇨🇦MAGA (KKKonvoy) territory in SW Ontario is ALSO facing huge measles outbreak.🙄Of course, science is fine when they need ER/ICU so they spread it there, &now it’s in York Region, Ham, London etc. Littles too young for 2nd💉will be in danger.😔
(Amish isolated-not issue).

Is the premier going to quarantine when she comes back from Texas or wherever she is gallivanting these days?

kcountry.bsky.social•7 days ago

Gallivanting or cavorting? The jump and dance around excitedly cavorting not the applying oneself enthusiastically to sexual or disreputable pursuits cavorting. Just to clarify, cause that would be awkward.

kalianne545.bsky.social•7 days ago

I wouldn't put it past her. but cavorting seems more conservative, no pun intended.

It's 2025. We just had a pandemic. People get you basic vaccines. Measels is not just an inconvenience illness. It can have long term effects.

robgayle.bsky.social•7 days ago

Well shit. It was only a matter of time.
