She writes wonderful kids’ books about science & recently created T shirt designs for a pro-Palestinian Jewish org, IJV. Actually all around great.

RFK Jr. has had all of his own children vaccinated (he confirmed this 3 weeks ago). He just wants other people to not vaccinate their children. Especially Black people for some reason… He even required his guests to get COVID vaccines before coming to his party. www.thedailybeast.com/robert-f-ken...

If we had all the time in the world it could be fun to flood WaPo with daily personal liberty pitches of this kind. So many liberties that are unlikely to be what they’re after.

no I feel horrible for them. My point is specific and about what resistance, as an action literally means (not what good actions are or what sympathy with resistance is or what can be compatible with resistance). Not intended as an attack.

This could just as well be what someone says if they support what's being done, and are preparing to permanently cancel many people's grants and/or jobs. It might be affirming or empathetic (which is great!) but I don't think it's resisting anything. The word must be meaningful, not just vibes.

ask my kids, this is my daily dinner rant! Tho not specifically US-focused, more North American or general popular culture (which of course is heavily US-influenced). But it's not just an American phenomenon.
