So apparently it’s a starter pack that has caused the huge influx of followers.
To clarify: I’m not located in the US nor am I a citizen.
I do have an interest in global liberation and Land Back for Indigenous peoples, even as a settler.
What impacts one group will impact another.

I cannot repeat this often enough. I require dialysis to live. It costs $1000 per treatment. I need treatment three times per week. Without Medicaid, I can't afford it. Without my treatment, I will die.
Republicans are trying to kill me.

Another name for this would be "pre-existing conditions," a way used to exclude disabled people from health care for decades in the US.
Understand, when you hear people talk about "rewarding the healthy" - these are policies that have a body count.

Please understand that "reward people for being healthy", in health insurance, also translates to "punish people for being disabled."
The people who are most vulnerable, most in need, will be asked to bear higher costs, in many cases, pricing them out of accessing health care, into early graves.

Chatted with a couple of Indigenous elders on the streets of Winnipeg tonight that expect to be displaced tomorrow. Without exaggeration, this is ongoing colonial violence happening in cities across Canada.
And in freezing temperatures, it's among the most overt forms of social murder.

Was at car dealership today. Noticed something funny. The normal cars had door poppers and overwhelming screens. The $120,000 car had physical door handles and tons of buttons.
May be obvious but I speculated years ago this would happen. Electronics cheaper than craftsmanship, because it is.
