  • Apathy is what kills us.

    Literally. Anyone want proof? This:

    Slashed maternal mortality to a fraction of what it was 2 generations ago

    Maternal mortality rates have increased by 11% in the US since the repeal of Roe. This is driven by shithole states like Texas, where the maternal mortality rate has increased by 56% in the past two years.

    You didn’t vote for Hillary because she just didn’t inspire you? She didn’t personally visit your state? She didn’t blow smoke up your ass promising fossil fuel production would increase despite the industry clearly dying for decades due to market pressures?

    Fuck you, women are dying now. So when you go vote in November, you can either vote for the fucking assholes who did this or the party that isn’t going to do this. Choose accordingly.

    (Also, you said “cops” when you meant “crops” I hope!)





  • That he published after he was no longer serving as the Chairman of the Joint Chief’s of Staff. The US military is known for being apolitical. This is him selling a book as former CJCS Mark Milley, and not CJCS GEN Milley.

    Hard to paint his actions as morally good when he’s doing it to make a profit. Alex Vindman, for example, opposed Trump despite the personal cost for him. Miley doesn’t get points for that.

    Edit: It’s Bob Woodward’s book, not Milley’s.

    Also when a former-President and possible-future-President is an outright fascist, “being apolitical” is a great way to defend marching citizens to camps. After all, opposing a direct order from the President might be seen as “political.”
