To be blunt, these adjectives du jour are never novel observations/critiques. Theyโ€™ve been addressed countless times, not just here but over the past few years.

Your refusal to engage is an active effort to *avoid* understanding, in a way that one might describe as โ€œunable to be reasoned with.โ€
October 15, 2025 at 10:57 AM
You know how itโ€™s frustrating when you post a nuanced, fact-based argument and the right just goes โ€œnah, I think otherwiseโ€?

Thatโ€™s you rn

Might be important to ask yourself why itโ€™s so difficult (apparently, bc you havenโ€™t done it) to engage with any of the people pushing back on โ€œunreasonableโ€

There is no going back to 2019, and the harms of SARS-CoV-2 are extremely well-documented and clear. Yes, even in 2025, and yes, even vaccinated.

We all have 2 options right now:

(1) wear a respirator, or
(2) wish we did

I choose #1 every day. Itโ€™s not fun but itโ€™s what this moment requires

Nope not a small amount, you just perpetually readjusted what you consider normal.

And itโ€™s not โ€œalarmists predictingโ€ itโ€™s โ€œstudies showing.โ€ 40% odds but keep gambling ๐Ÿ‘

Long COVID - which didnโ€™t exist just a few years ago - is now the leading chronic illness in kids. You know, the little humans weโ€™re supposed to protect?

When should we start caring? 7 million chronically ill kids? 10 million?

Today marks *1 year* since Israeli forces killed 26-year-old American AyลŸenur Eygi.

Her family has heard nothing from Biden & Trump admins, and Israel.

State Dept. told us it has โ€œno higher priorityโ€ than US citizens โ€” but then referred us to Israel for info on Israelโ€™s killing of the US citizen.

COVID isnโ€™t over; demand clean air and until it is, wear a mask.

Free Palestine, free DR Congo, free Sudan, free all oppressed peoples worldwide from imperial/colonial violence and extraction.

Start or join worker-owned enterprises and bring more democracy to the world, not less.

*there are people - out in CA, other places - whoโ€™ve stepped up and pushed back, incl by masking: keep it up ๐Ÿ’ช

Even symbolically, it makes clear โ€œI understand thereโ€™s a problem, and Iโ€™m part of the solution.โ€

Ik 2020โ€™s been largely memory-holed, but there was persistent collective unity in that moment that we havenโ€™t come close to since

Itโ€™s honestly baffling to me that leftists and liberals havenโ€™t started wearing respirators/masks again

Infectious diseases aside, itโ€™d be strong, visible, unifying action to take against a rapidly escalating surveillance state

If ur not masking rn during an ongoing pandemic you believe this eugenic ideology btw, whether you want to admit it or not. If ur not masking youโ€™re ok with infecting and killing/disabling those around u by spewing Covid all over, so mask tf up and donโ€™t talk abt eugenics if ur contributing to it
The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.
