you have to treat people like this with the same seriousness as you would a guy screaming at you about the lizard people on the street; they have a similar relationship with reality.
there would be no real concrete effects of an AOC presidency that would be materially different from a JD Vance presidency because they all work for the capitalist ruling class and not for us, yes including AOC. we don't need a different president we need a dictatorship of the proletariat.
This is about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
My earnest advice to you is to stop worrying about labels like "liberal" and "conservative" and think about the immediate, concrete, REAL effects of, say, an AOC presidency vs. A JD Vance presidency

the thing is RWers aren't wrong in claiming their ideas are underrepresented in academia. they're only wrong in attributing it to purposeful suppression rather than an astonishing preeminence at being intellectually unrigorous that makes their ideas unworkable

I refuse to talk about Gavin Newsom getting the presidential nomination until there is actually a chance of that happening, the primaries for the midterms aren't even over yet

Name names. Marty Makary, Vinay Prasad, Jay Bhattacharya, Tracy Beth Hoeg, Martin Kulldorff, Russell Vought, RFK Jr., Donald Trump. All of them contributed to this by their relentless attacks on vaccines and biomedical R&D.
In terms of what cures are being lost:
- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

I don't remember if I shat all over David Horowitz when he died in April, so I will take the opportunity now to state that David Horowitz is dead andthe world is a better place because of it.
Fuck that guy.

Such an asinine potential ballot initiative exempting 60+ from property taxes and no income limit, sponsored by Rishi Kumar, a former local Democratic elected.
"Kumar, declined to reveal his age and would only say he worked for an artificial intelligence company in Silicon Valley."

CA seniors could choose to opt out of property taxes under proposed initiative

the latest numbers were too brutal to publish, huh
If you saw today's headline that Gallup will stop measuring presidential approval, they did the same thing in 2018. They do it whenever Trump is president.

I am begging you all to stop getting pre-emptively angry about the outcome of the 2028 Democratic primary in 2026. go campaign for someone you deem worthy or just go outside. please.
tbh nobody should be asking leftists if they'll support newsom and leftists should mostly brush off the question. it's a divisive trap that serves *only* newsom's personal interests. he isn't the candidate, he's a shithead and nominating him would be a bad idea. useless hypothetical.

NEW: The F.D.A. refused to accept an application from Moderna for its mRNA flu vaccine.
Its reason: The agency did not think Moderna compared the new vaccine to one of the best flu shots available. The company spent $750M+ on a 41,000 person study.

It is absolutely outrageous that Moderna’s flu vaccine was met with a “refusal-to-file” even after their approved their protocol with FDA and carried out the trial as agreed. This vaccine works better in older adults than the current flu vaccines.
