Feeding into the binary fallacy that death is the only bad outcome from COVID-19 does nothing except normalize & forward the agenda of the anti-vaccine movement.

No.

Our mask requirement is not "virtue signalling".

It's protecting a) the cancer patient and b) the child who is still too small to wear a mask.

And also--and I can't emphasize this strongly enough--you.

but because so few spend any time actually analyzing how protests function, they see viral moments and seek to replicate them, believing this to be what solidarity is.

would they replicate the shadowy figures throwing gas cans back? no. they don’t want to get their hands dirty.

Dear liberals,

If you identify as a leftist who believes in intersectional justice & fighting fascism, please wear a mask in public. It’s one small act of solidarity with the millions living with long Covid - and a reminder that caring for others includes protecting their health

Those who understand SARS-CoV-2 (Covid) causes neurological, endothelial, cardiovascular, and immune system damage, and that damage from repeated infections is cumulative, mask. And those who don’t will soon find out.

I don’t “live in fear” typically means, I prefer to “live in denial.”

Blinder than blind is the faint-hearted
Trembling with hope that the thing is not evil
He gives it a friendly reception
Disarmed, tired out with terror
Hoping for the best …
Until it’s too late

The whole thread 🔥
it kills me knowing what’s needed is for people to double down on bucking any demands for “civility” because they understand these demands are training people to surveil & snitch on their neighbors and an exploit to intensify authoritarian control over our thoughts.

you will never be amenable enough to the demands of a fascist tantrum to make it stop without selling your soul and becoming a fascist yourself.

there is no amount of compliance that is acceptable short of absolute indoctrination.

the more you bend, the more they push you down.

stop helping them!

similarly, appeals to decorum and civility are the most crocodile tears pearlclutching horseshit i’ve ever seen in my life.

you’re getting scammed into extending your empathy to people using it to attack your neighbors.

they don’t deserve it! you’re not good for giving it to them! it’s bad to do!

If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

I sure do love that whenever a trans person says anything negative about Newsom that a horde of people who are locking in Newsom as the 2028 Dem nominee pop up to scold you. Very fun!
August 25, 2025 at 11:00 PM
No intellectually honest person says “Dem/progressive” in 2025. Those are different groups with different goals, and anyone saying otherwise is just PR. The idea that you can be both is like people saying they support both newsom and the homeless, or newsom and trans folks. Not a real thing.
Color me shocked that explicitly Dem/progressive influencers are funded by Dem/progressive donors. And that they are sharing resources and messaging guidelines! Oh no!

I've not seen them characterize themselves as journalists but creators or commentators -- these folks are aspiring PUNDITS. 2/

One of my fave parts of watchmen is they include nearly every song that boomers think are sacrosanct. Just to point out that they fell asleep
Younger generations, you need to dust off this Bob Dylan song from 1964 because it's just as applicable now as it was then.

San Francisco voters ousted Chesa Boudin and installed a "tough on crime" DA. Guess what?

There's still crime, drug addiction, and homelessness.

But there's not a coalition of right-wingers and "moderate" Democrats constantly screeching about how crime is an existential threat.

Curtis Yarvin keeps being extremely racist in public—and Vice President JD Vance keeps following him.

Hmm, why is that?

His slurs are public. His ideas are toxic. But to men like JD Vance, Yarvin is still worth following.

85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity.

There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.
