A LOT of industry folks need to take "I think there's a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit" to HEART.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.

Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

I’m very very tired of “living in fear” being lobbed at maskwearers by people who frequently say they can’t wear one because no one else around them is.

Living in fear is ignoring science and endangering lives and your own health because you’re terrified of not fitting in.

"There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

Don’t let this just be a moment. This is every bit as dire as the loss of Medicaid. People will die.
Senior CDC leaders (Houry, Daskalakis, Jernigan) are being interviewed on CNN now.

For 12 months, America had a limited proof of concept for universal healthcare, and it was so uniformly successful we had no choice but to obliterate our society
I keep thinking about how the COVID vaccine was rolled out for free for all Americans in 2021 by the federal & state governments with support from local health departments & universities. Since, we have seen the privatization of delivery thru commercial pharmacies & the need for insurance coverage.
NEWS: CVS, the largest pharmacy chain in the country, is currently not offering Covid vaccines in 16 states and DC — even to people who meet the new FDA criteria — because the CDC hasn't signed off and isn't expected to do so (if it does so) for at least three weeks.

Citizens’ Impeachment has long held that if just 5% of Americans contacted their members of Congress about impeachment, it would be the largest collective action of its kind in American history. It would almost certainly lead to his removal from office.

I think a lot about how COVID-19 was sold as an "individual responsibility," an approach which got over a million people killed but that the culture still accepted. Following that P.R. success, they're eager to say every illness is your fault.
RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness.

Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military.

Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc.

It’s eugenics

It doesn’t matter if you’re given permission to do so by the highest authority in the land and by every person around you: Doing wrong is doing wrong.

#WearAnN95 & don’t spread COVID. It’s a dangerous virus with serious long term harms, & everyone is potentially vulnerable.

You can’t tell me you’d never end up in a cult if you’ve abandoned masking lol.

You are susceptible to misinformation too.

This National Public Health Week, I encourage fellow journalists to refer to the Covid-19 pandemic in the present tense. Sure, the government emergency in the US is over, but that means people can be forced to come into work while sick with Covid, which increases the risk of developing Long Covid.

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing.

Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

1. Perhaps the most damaging blowback from the response to Covid-19 in 2020 and 2021 is the mainstreaming of a public health ideology that is rooted in a dangerous combination of survivorship bias, nostalgia, and the naturalistic fallacy.

Reposing what @juliadoubleday.bsky.social posted on X: There is an obsession (especially in the media) w creating a false dichotomy between ppl whose bodies already express the harm of multiple covid infections and those whose bodies aren’t yet doing that (or they aren’t aware of it). It’s false
