Days after the Chevron ruling a corporate healthcare system - which doesn’t pay any taxes despite being a profit-driven business - is now suing Medicare so that they can collect more *tax dollars* w/o having to meet the standards of care set by CMS. Some CMS regulations may be silly but this is bad.

Marginally better is still resulting in funding a genocide. This is a red line for many people (myself included). If he is willing to support a genocide how can I trust him not to continually screw over the American people?

This is why mask bans are suddenly being proposed. If you’re in a place where that’s happening and you think we should prioritize public and personal health and freedom over expanding the powers of the police state then please do let your representatives know why the freedom to mask matters to you

"Truth tellers are the Achilles heel of collective denial. And so those who wear masks are ridiculed, scientists reporting on COVID-19 risks are cast as fearmongers, and those with long COVID are dismissed as having anxiety disorders." Fantastic piece on the tactics behind denial by sociologists.

2023 COVID deaths were higher than if we’d reintroduced polio, whooping cough, diphtheria, measles & mumps combined. 75k vs 43k, adjusted for population.
This is bc of CASE load. Other viruses are deadlier, but none reinfect like Covid. Read:

I've been asked on several occasions to help faculty at various institutions "understand Gen Z students." And while that's a laudable goal-to better understand the humans in your classrooms-I feel like I'm being asked to give them a set of magic solutions. But instead, it's really more like this:

Organic doesn’t mean pesticide free though. It means they are limited to using organic improved pesticides. And in a lot of cases these don’t work as well and then are overused.

The US government is ending the program that provides free COVID vaccines to people who are uninsured and underinsured. This is a public health failure that will further decrease already low vax rates, and puts marginalized communities at greater risk.

In the first 3 months of this year, Israeli forces and settlers killed 131 Palestinians in the West Bank, indicating that 2024 could be one of the deadliest years since 2008.

It's not just Gaza. "Surrounded by corpses for 10 hours, Ali and the woman stayed still...seven armed men in uniform came into the clinic, beating him and using racial slurs. 'One said, ‘We won’t kill you! We want to torture you, Nuba [an ethnic slur]!’”

How Israel turned hospitals into ‘military targets’ by lying about international law
The bar for hospitals to lose protected status under international law is set very high. Those conditions were not met for any of the 36 hospitals in Gaza that Israel destroyed.

The real reason Israel is invading Rafah
With 1.5 million people trapped in Rafah, Israel is moving forward with its invasion with no clear goals. So far Israel has been unable to wipe out the resistance in Gaza, so its only option is to massacre more Palestinians.

I am seeing a pattern of quite well disciplined pro-Palestine protesters, trained in non-engagement with counter-protestors, getting arrested after "chaos" breaks out instigated by aggressive pro-Israel counter protesters. It happened at UCLA and could happen at U Chicago.

In a functional democracy, the representatives in the national legislature that young people voted for could end American support the war in Gaza. Most people support a ceasefire. But, we don't live in a functional democracy, so students and young people have no recourse besides mass protest.

Cops in America's biggest city are beating, stomping, gassing, and clubbing kids protesting a moral atrocity, to protect a university's money and property. That's happening right now. We're not the ones engaging in accelerationism. The fast track this country is on is to fascism, not communism.

We cannot minimize what's happening. Authorities are responding with disproportional force to a non-threat simply because they want to crack down on students who disagree with them.
