Let’s break this down—because the gaslighting is wild: 📌Oct 2022 – Biden signs EO to cut drug prices 📌Jan 2025 – Trump takes office and kills Biden’s EO to cut drug prices 📌May 2025 – Trump signs his own EO to lower drug prices Trump canceled Biden’s plan then brought it back w/his name on it.

the american electoral system is basically 500,000 information-resistant people across a handful of states taking a guess and then going "haha! oops!" every two years. this process takes 18 months and costs four trillion dollars every time

I blame the people that are still in denial. Who say they don't read the news because it's too depressing. The people that feel privileged enough to remain blissfully unaware, but don't take the responsibility that comes with the privilege. If you are privileged, you have a civic duty to stand up.
