As said before basically unemployable weirdos are disappearing people who work the jobs that make basic society function

America is being run by people whose social media presence would see them getting fired from a part time job stacking shelves.
If you worked at Aldi and posted a video of you pouring shit all over Aldi customers, you wouldn't work at Aldi.

it is never okay to take out your frustration on service people and people who do have low moral character

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over

Julia Lynch @jlynch13.bsky.social · 14h

RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.

Drug Monkey @drugmonkey.bsky.social · 14h

Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.

"unquestioned power" means acting like a king.

We're getting under his skin, and forcing him to overplay his hand even more than he has. He has nothing of substance to offer

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.
