The Indian Health Service Is Flagging Vaccine-Related Speech. Doctors Say They’re Being Censored.
Officials have deemed terms like “immunizations” and “vaccines” risky “buzzwords” that require approval to be used in social media posts, pamphlets and presentations.

Most people don’t know that with SNAP you are banned from buying “foods that are hot at the point of sale”. So even if you have SNAP (which people don’t now) you can’t get cooked food. Which means you need to also actually have the resources to PREPARE a “healthy” meal.
Thinking about the social stigma against eating fast food in a country where poor people are being starved by the govt, the cost of groceries and fresh vegetables are astronomical, and a cheeseburger at McDonald’s costs $3.50.
“Clean” and “healthy” eating rhetoric is racist, ableist, and classist.

which is why disabled people have been loud about this being eugenics. it truly is a whole ideological framework with real goals.
A load-bearing assumption required by MAGA's entire ideological framework is that those who are unable to afford the basic necessities of life (whether employed or not) deserve to die.
I love how these folks just assume that all of these people are just sitting around doing nothing
Two-thirds of people with SNAP benefits have jobs! The other third are children and people too infirm to work!

Terrific post. The current administration is comfortable killing us, especially the poor, brown, and/or disabled. If you want to resist that and show solidarity to those groups (and maybe save an insurance copay), wear a high quality mask in indoor public spaces.
