Just spoke with my CDC sources. They were in tears.
Budgets cut. RFJK has ordered them not to publicize bird flu symptoms in exposed workers. Not to test them. Not to speak.
They know people are getting sick. And they’re being forced to stay silent.
This is not just a cover-up. It's cruelty.

It’s not “differently abled,” it’s not “special needs,” it’s not “handicapped,” or anything else, it’s disabled. Disabled is not a bad or dirty word. Disabled is accurate and there’s nothing wrong with being disabled.

If you’re able to mask & choose not to, please understand you’re making it easier for politicians to pass mask bans. Fasicsm thrives on apathy and “othering”
Mask bans hurt an othered group the most… disabled people
Please wear a mask in solidarity. If we normalize masks they become harder to ban!

I’ve read several articles today referring to RFK Jr. or Geier as vaccine “skeptics”. I again beg the media to STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION. They are not skeptics. They are lying, grifting, unqualified frauds who are promoting a conspiracy.
“Conspiracy theorists” would be much more accurate.

Trump’s CDC is cancelling $11 billion in COVID funding allocated to health departments and nonprofits, claiming the grants are no longer necessary because the pandemic is over.
This is wrong. COVID is a continuing threat and millions have Long COVID. We still need to do more to mitigate its harms.

Guidelines about accommodating people with disabilities are being scrubbed from the Justice departments website in an effort to … reduce the cost of groceries.
Once again disabled people are targeted because the government assumes no one will speak up for us.

More of the return to Ugly Laws.
5 years of “only the vulnerable will die” & “just stay home” helped get us here.
We are rapidly being erased from public view, socially & now legally.

Everything is tied back to disability. When people are dehumanized, many do what they can to tie it to disability somehow and make it so that they don't get treated with decency. "That person is mentally ill." "They are lazy." "They're stupid." By fighting ableism, you're fighting dehumanization.

The "wait and see" folk with disability benefits are awful.
We don't have the privilege of waiting.
We don't have the privilege of ignoring what's being said.
Even the rhetoric is going to kill people, so yes it matters.

If you're quiet about your disabilities, you get accused of being a fake. If you're outspoken, you get accused of being attention seeking.
Disabled people deserve to be believed and supported without hate. We deserve to be able to thrive.

Do you know how hard it would be to fake your way into disability benefits? So many of us can’t even REAL ourselves into disability benefits. No matter how many diagnoses, hospitalizations, surgeries, or mobility aids we have. The process is intentionally hard, I haven’t even started it because I’m

The actual fraud isn’t people faking disability. It’s politicians pretending to care about disabled people, then slashing the support that keeps us alive.

Pandemics change people. We aren’t used to dealing with the mass death, disability & uncertainty that comes with them
Unfortunately due to technology & misinformation, society is choosing NOT to process its collective trauma
It IS changing us. Not for the better. We’re detached, colder & apathetic

Chronic illness means learning to live with unimaginable amounts of pain & suffering
It means adapting to being trapped in a body that you don’t understand. That never feels safe
It’s learning that hospitals won’t help you, friends & family will leave you, and your “normal” is forever changed.

One thing I'm fucken sick of hearing is that people on the poverty line "don't want handouts."
Well, the rich take hand outs. Maybe they're rich bc they were offered handouts. Maybe they're rich bc they take them.
This "shame in receiving free money" for the poor but not the rich makes me SO MAD

So this is why yall are masking up in, at the very least, all public indoor spaces, right?
When the president starts threatening people for their first amendment right to protest that means everyone has to protest now. We cannot let him peel off individual groups, one by one we have to stand together .
American have to force their hand now make him put up or shut up.
