I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

We now have an unprecedented level of income & wealth inequality.
It isn’t acceptable that the top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 93%, while a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
We must stand together & create an economy that works for all, not just the few.

independent media as “Lügenpresse” (“lying press”), promote conspiracies as official truth, replace factual information with ideologically approved narratives, and use state branding to give propaganda an air of authority.
Now look at the White House website, you can see the disturbing parallels.

Let’s compare what Trump is doing on government websites to what Hitler’s regime did. Hitler’s government used official channels to rewrite history to glorify the regime and demonize political opponents, discredit journalists by labeling

We’ve had people from the U.S. and abroad asking whether the information on the White House website is even accurate anymore. The site has become unreliable, filled with blatantly false and deliberately misleading content.
