This is something that's been driving me insane for the last decade, and I'm sure I'm not alone.
Fear of using accurate terminology is enabling fascism and stupidity and insanity.
Call it like it is.
PS. RFK Jr. is insane.

A lot of the positions people like RFK jr. take (anti-vax, anti-pasteurization etc.) get described as “controversial.”
They’re not. There is no controversy. This is long-settled science. The correct term is “stupid.”

“I do agree. He will probably have to pull out. Sorry, that’s a bad choice of words for Matt Gaetz”

Looking forward to the Mike Tyson vs Matt Gaetz match on Buffering Netflix after a few Christmas movies.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

Trump’s HHS nominee RFK Jr once compared mask mandates to Nazi experiments conducted during the Holocaust:
“They’re going to have the right to compel unwanted medical interventions on us. The Nazis did that in the camps in World War II. They tested vaccines on Gypsies and Jews.”

Overtime? Who needs that! I didn’t think the leopard would eat MY face!
President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it.
Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.
