Dolores Huerta, a 95 year old labor organizer with deep roots going back even before the Delano Grape Strike in 1965, here in Boyle Heights speaking at a protest. She called the past several days of detainments throughout Los Angeles a “horrible assault.”

Doesn't this mean they'd have to track what I've seen? If something got posted into my timeline 3 hours ago but I didn't see it, and it's still getting shared, I think I'd want to see it, but not sure how to get both this *and* avoid endless repeats

The extant evidence for the origin of Covid points in one direction - that it emanated from live animal sales at the Huanan Seafood Market. With the exception of SARS1 (where animals were still on sale unbeknownst to authorities) the evidence for this is stronger than any viral emergence in history.

I agree with all of this. Then again, I am reluctant to wade into a discussion about the relationship of biology to race (as a biologist! I have relevant expertise here!) leaning on the insights I've had with Zen practice given how easy it would be to be misconstrued
