You also get this weird insistence that not masking in 2025 is an assault on an imagined-to-be-monolithic category of “disabled” people. Motherfucker, I’m disabled. I have severe chronic glaucoma. I have high blood pressure. I have problems with blood clots so I’m on blood thinners for life.

I’m receiving insistence on reading papers too. You know who I trust? Not covid forever folks on here. My criminal defense clients. People who are savvy about life because they have to be. When they wear masks, I do. Meanwhile, I rely on vaccines. They’re like billions of tiny masks for your cells!

ah yes, another hallmark of the Hiroo Onoda COVID truthers: their instance that fellow lay people read PREPRINTS that haven’t undergone peer review and the proponent themself likely does not understand because they lack the scientific and medical background to properly interpret the findings

Having a garden and bunnies is the best combination because the bunnies will absolutely help you take care of all the autumn cuttings for you completely for free 😂

They're disowning one of the most successful recent protests because it's based on joy and humor instead of rage and misery.

This is what's REALLY annoying about the far left. They know the importance of delays and incremental change. They know that no one act of resistance is meant to solve fascism on its own.

But all that logic goes out the window when it comes to voting for a Dem they disagree with on some issues.

Yes. Unironically yes. You defeat fascism by VOTING AGAINST IT.

That's the ONLY proven way to do it, and your irrational resistance to that simple principle is a VERY weird side effect of your terminally-online lefter-than-thouism that I sincerely hope you outgrow someday.

Hoon McMunch @biasbe.bsky.social · 2d

Ok, so no other course of action was possible, and you’re sticking to your position: the only way to prevent fascism is for the democrats to win every single election forever. Just gonna mute you now. Later pal.

GOOD. Go full Nuremberg on these fascist fucks. "I was only following orders" wasn't a valid excuse then and it ain't a valid excuse now.

You know people keep telling me these protests don't do anything. But Republicans are so afraid of them.

“The upcoming No Kings has set off klaxons for Republican lawmakers…Some in party leadership are going further by branding it a pro-terrorism demonstration—an unambiguously false allegation meant to get ahead of a potentially massive protest against the president.”
