The Guardian are reporting a significant increase in Jewish people voting for the Green Party.
It's almost like many of us grew up learning a history of persecution & violence.
We don't oppose the Genocide in spite of being Jewish but because of it.
Never again for everyone.

This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:
“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

There are mass layoffs and the cost of coffee went up 41%. People are being told to go back to the office four or five days a week, which means increased costs for commuting, lunches, clothes, hair, makeup and childcare again.
Q: Would a $2,000 tariff dividend check going to people be inflationary?
Bessent: Maybe we could persuade Americans to save that.

Congrats on the new job! Can't wait to see what you accomplish.
My parents watch our youngest once a week, so we only have to pay for 4 days a week of daycare. It's $502/week for those 4 days (still, a massive savings over when we had 2 in daycare at $909/week)! Some people are really out of touch.

The problem though is that our recent experience with Covid19 suggests that increased pain and suffering appears to convert more voters to reactionary right wing voters, and even appears to activate non-voters to join the reactionary populist neofascist movement. 2/🧵

Pro-Trump counties now have far higher COVID death rates. Misinformation is to blame
An analysis by NPR shows that since the vaccine rollout, counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump have had more than twice the COVID mortality rates of those that voted for Joe Biden.

There's a school of thought which suggests that the only way to disable the fascist movement is to stop shielding MAGA voters from the consequences of their actions.
Well, now that the GOP administration is disabling disease surveillance, response, and even basic research, there's no shield. 1/ 🧵

We appear to be seeing an uptick of devastating flu-associated Acute Necrotizing Encephalitis in children this season. We've had reports here in No. Cal. Others out of Boston. We're piecemealing things together because there's no active surveillance for ANE, and CDC can't communicate with partners.

Watching the Epstein survivor admit that she voted for Trump really fucked with my head. The brainwashing against the left that apparently people endure from birth, must be way deeper than I ever imagined. A victim voting for a rapist, who has also been accused by 26 other women?
