When people were actively arguing that Dems would be worse than Trump on Gaza they were either stupid or accelerationists. Especially considering these are self proclaimed “leftists” who apparently think Trump will usher in a tankie uprising. Not them of course, social media is full on revolutionary activism so they won’t be doing anything.
Yes, it was a big thing with public health officials and doctors saying that measles were not like chickenpox but that’s how people in Marin were treating it.

MAGA don’t even like EV’s to begin with.
I had conversations with many an accelerationist who supported Trump over Harris on Gaza. Pretty sure they were just full of shit and spreading misinformation.
If I’m not mistaken parts of the SF Bay Area had measles parties like 10-15 years ago when the anti-vaxx thing was really becoming trendy. Parents would take their kids to try to get them infected. It’s as stupid today as it was before. Fuck these people.
That’s why you have to keep asking them questions. Antifa did it? Why’d they get pardoned by Trump? They’ll usually disengage or start hurling insults.
Probably a combination of factors. Consider that pedophilia and sexual predation are anti-social behaviors and that people who enter into higher/high level politics or business have anti-social tendencies as well. You can’t run a district, company, city, state, country, etc. that require you to sacrifice for the imperatives you’re seeking. You can’t get bogged down by caring for people. You see them as a means to an end. Objects with utility.
Oh well. These people entered government willingly. They are the deep state.
Yes and it also raises visibility for the very real issues that people have raised concerns about. It’s one thing to detain and/or deport people without proper documentation. It’s another to act as though people with the proper documentation who are abiding the laws are also being detained and/or deported. Say nothing for the US citizens who are also being detained and/or deported.
I’ve noticed that more and more seniors are entering the labor force after retirement and it doesn’t have to do with keeping busy. One of my local grocery stores had a woman who would work a few days a week but she quit during Covid. Ran into her on another occasion. She said she quit because she was just doing it to keep busy and she wasn’t going to work if she didn’t have to. I don’t see that anymore. If I make a comment about “keeping busy” to anyone who says they’re retired they admit they can’t keep up with insurance or property tax increases without working. We’re going to see more and more of this as social security dwindles and prices continue to increase.
Many subs already are.
I’ve pondered this. They’d have to go. There can only be one.
Multiple economists overwhelmingly stated that his policy proposals were inflationary. MAGA accused them of being “liberals” and disregarded their warnings as fake. Working people aren’t going to be saving anything unless it’s by a sheer cut back in their spending as they try to save money. And of course saving won’t matter if Trump axes FDIC.
Unsurprising considering that Rubio has tied his identity so closely with being anti-Cuba. Many of the Cuban American diaspora in the US echo his sentiments. I like that the article highlights how many medical professionals got their education in Cuba, including a number of Americans.
This article cites South Korea as an example of falling birth rates. However, some data shows that South Korea’s initiatives have helped it see in a light uptick in their birth rates. Time will tell ultimately whether or not the policies are a success. Link to article on Al Jazeera about SK.
You know I used to think that things like feeding starving kids was not controversial. But now with people feeling safe behind their keyboards, I have read some of the worst takes from others regarding children. Ironically, always from people who claim to be religious and “pro-life”.
Oh great. First measles now this? My city already had its first outbreak and in public school where kids are supposed to be vaccinated in order to attend.
The fact that you couldn’t see that Trump would be inarguably worse and/or didn’t care is why Palestine is going to wiped off the map and be but a footnote in history.
