Viruses with human-to-human transmission are, by definition, not personal. Refusing measles vaccine is choosing to endanger those around you. “Medical freedom” is just a way for anti-vaxxers to sell their message in a society that values the choice to be unvaccinated over the choice to be unexposed.

There's one central rule in working against autocrats - if they see you as weak, if you attempt to appease, you are creating a permission structure for them to escalate, to take more. Ds are strong right now, and he is weak. We need to use our strength to get more for the American people, not less
