Really finding the despair as I watch everyone — this platform, our officials, regular people — comply with the circular demands of fascism. I can tell you right now something that you already know: It will never be enough. You will never be enough. Stop trying to please people who hate you.

This place was built it large part by a wave of trans early adopters and it’s a fucking insult that the mods here are letting a deliberate troll like Singal set up shop here to bully and harass them.

North Carolina’s Atrium Health says it will forgive the debts of 11,500 people — less than a week after NBC News reported that the company has aggressively pursued former patients’ medical debts, placing liens on their homes to collect on bills.
'Like a miracle': N.C. couple free of nearly $100,000 medical debt after 15 years
The lien on Donna and Gary Lindabury's home for a 2009 heart surgery debt was among 11,500 wiped away by Atrium Health after an NBC News report.

This is a crucial point: The assault on birthright citizenship is part of a much larger attempt to fundamentally redraw the boundaries of the polity and exclude everyone the Trumpist Right does not accept as “real” or “authentic” American - including all those who adhere to “anti-American” ideas.
it's the obvious next step after eliminating birthright for children of non-citizens. finding other classes of "undesirable" Americans and denying them citizenship too.

Cosign. We won't eliminate for profit Healthcare in this lifetime w/ the way US Capitalism works. Multipayer fosters competition & ensures a social safety net. But! Healthcare Robber Barons wouldn't be able to paper their yachts with the money needed for children's chemo, so I see the hesitance
I know I’ve said this before, but we could have *multipayer* universal health care coverage tomorrow. Countries like Australia already have it. Medicare for all is the safety net and people can still buy private insurance if they want. It’s fucking criminal we don’t have that.
