Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading. Now we’ve got mumps rolling up. Expect more. This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

"Hate will not stop hate; only love will do that." #MLK

However, love vs hate isn't the accruate framing for what's happening in America. It's narcissism vs sanity. You can't love people into healing from that. All we can do is outvote them.

On the right, the same duo, years later. The parent hugs the child, who is resting their head against the parent's chest in a comforting embrace. Kiddo is wearing a sleeveless shirt with thick horizontal stripes of soft blue, pink, and white.
Dialogue text from the parent says: Now that you found your voice, it's for you to tell the world who you are.

Capitalism needs homelessness
for it to function. The fear of being
unhoused is a policy choice, used
as a threat to exploit workers.
Imagine how society would be
if we had basic income and
housing was seen as a right, not a
privilege.

"Cruelty is specifically the demonization of particular groups in order to deny them rights or exclude them from the polity. It's one thing to say that we're not going to allow in people on the basis of religion. It's another thing entirely to say that we are going to shatter families deliberately because we want to dissuade people from trying to come to the United States for a better life.

We're always going to have disagreements in a democracy. That's what democracy is for. It's for reconciling disagreements. But what is not necessary is a politics where one side is trying to disenfranchise or exclude the other party's voters in order to maintain a grip on power. "

Trump denigrated Zelenskyy for not wearing a suit. Zelenskyy wore his military uniform to remind us that his country is still under attack from an authoritarian regime and his duty doesn't take a day off.

Fun fact: One hallmark of narcissism is denigrating someone else for arbitrary or trivial reasons in order to boost one's ego and gaslight others into thinking they don't have to respect the victim.

Isn't it bizarre? That every woman you
know has been followed to her car,
has been stalked, has felt fear at the
presence of an unknown man(often
because they pressured their way
into her space). How it seems like
not a single man can admit to having
been this person. Yet if we try to talk
about it, almost every man will sit the
conversation out. Or worse, outright
attack the person saying it.

I was ~15 when they gave a name to the mysterious illness killing gay men: HIV/AIDS. I watched Reagan & Bush vilify the victims and suppress govt investment in research, treatments, and cures. 
Then, when a boy called Ryan White was publicly supported, many of us realized what the conservatives were doing. By the time I was 18, I knew I could never vote for the GOP ever. And I have not.
They've only become worse in the decades since.
