TDS is the biggest load of gaslighting bullshit I've ever heard.
Trump acts like a tyrant/toddler/fascist/lunatic and it's everyone else with the problem if they don't go along?
Get the fuck out of here with that. It's a tactic that only works if we accept it. HE is fucked up, not us.

The industry connections of an advisory panel for the new dietary guidelines are notable, especially in light of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s criticism of corporate influence.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

The weirdest thing about Americans is how many of them think their laws apply to every person in the world.
But they're certain other countries' laws don't apply to them.

A disturbing piece. Jewish students who attended private Jewish schools in Canada and the USA talk about the pro-Zionist pro-Israel indoctrination that is integral to the schools. I wonder if this occurs at private Jewish schools in Australia too. 🤔 #education www.readthemaple.com/youre-litera...
