THIS is why media fails so horrifically "oh, oh, whatever will we do" clickbait bullshit when they know that Trump always says contradictory things - that way he does what he wants and each group cries "He said so!" "Trump’s seemingly contradictory comments...." www.rawstory.com/trump-medica...

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

I laugh harder every time I read it

Kinda astounding how selfishly apathetic and utterly craven an (almost) entire nation can be

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

I don’t often feel rage. That said, I’ve been getting pretty damn close, watching one of the few truly warrior like heroes in the world of leadership…Zelensky…being rat fucked by two of the biggest pieces of shit on the planet.

All kinds of talk about why & how nations fall It's cowardice. Cowardice enables corruption and then it's all over. www.rawstory.com/trump-fundra...

At this point, being a "craven betrayer of stated ideals & principles" is the dividing line between right wing and everybody else Go ahead, tell me I'm wrong, just try it

Now that there is a community outbreak and exponentially more particles in circulation, we'll see vaccinated ppl also getting sick, although much milder It's a numbers game; with enough particles, anyone will get symptoms before their immune system gets on top of it www.rawstory.com/measles-texas/

Regardless of age, all measles cases are in unvaccinated individuals

Proud to be Canadian. This is so us.

Here’s a super short video on how to require alt text on your posts!

My lifetime experience of the word "jalopy" is entirely due to the Archie comics

Pete’s not hiding. He’s leading from the front:

Also, measles is more than just "sick for a couple weeks"; it's a virus that has long after effects. Not just organ damage or disability from acute disease, measles also weakens your immunity to other viruses by damaging the memory immune cells you've developed in your lifetime. So there's that.

Measles is one of the most easily transmissible viruses we know, incredibly contagious and hard to contain. Our only success has been because of high community vaccination rates That's gone now. Measles is going to rage through the "natural immunity" populations, especially children

I'm not going to say FAFO to the farmers who had a contract under Inflation Reduction Act, fulfilled their end, and then Trump cancelled it all. Even if they voted for him I'll point out Trump is famous for not paying on any contract and until this moment y'all praised his business skills doing it

Wow.

This is my hill I'll die on In fact, religion perverts morality because it doesn't know why something is moral or not In a nutshell, no religion needed, morality is about consent. If it's not an issue of consent then it's not a moral question

I'm sorry it has to be this way America, but if you're going back to those 'amazing' robber-baron years of history then frail women dying slowly of consumption is part of the package
