Newsom could’ve said “we need to focus on common goals” - neutral, reasonable
Instead, he chose to say “culturally normal.” This is loaded language. It warns you about not conforming. It stigmatizes those who do not. It’s a bad and divisive choice, and i think it’s worth noting.

People keep telling me that private insurance providers will keep covering preventative care like vaccines because it costs them less in the long run—but I grew up in the before times. As in the times before the ACA.
Before the ACA, insurance companies didn't cover a ton of preventative care even though the long-term effects resulted in sicker people. It's part of why the ACA had to mandate it.
