Elections aren't abstract. We need to stop "both sides are the same" reductionism. Allowing people who profit from disinformation like RFK Jr to lead health agencies will literally kill people.

@luckytran the Dems' public health folks have been causing death and widespread disablement on a massive scale for the last 4 years by ignoring COVID, and are sleepwalking us into an imminent bird flu pandemic. And people just carry on like this is in any way good policy.

Having an obvious bad actor going "I'm here to destroy public health" is at least a level of honesty that might spur resistance.

Trying to find a silver lining here...

@sleepfreeparent @luckytran The "burn it all to the ground" mentality is NOT HELPING.
@luckytran
yep, sometimes the lesser of two evils is the responsible choice

@luckytran the beatings will continue until the people who make these horrible decisions feel some of the pain from making them.

until they do, there is no 'negative reinforcement' - they have no incentive to play nice

@luckytran
All the while, adding to the legitimate view of us as a clown car. Horrifying.
