Kinda funny watching MAGA become the party hippies prefer, between the anti vax stuff, and now rfk jr pushing anti fluoride and more exercise instead of healthcare spending 11/3/2024 3:04:34 PM |

Definitely better to start 12 year olds on Ozempic. Shit maybe we even force parents to giving it to the kids in case they become obese. Basically child abuse of we don't. 11/3/2024 5:04:18 PM |

True.
I won't forget moving the goalposts on getting the COVID vaccine during a global pandemic. 11/3/2024 6:19:23 PM |
CaelNCSU All American 7126 Posts user info edit post |
How did I move goalposts? I said maybe I'd get J&J and it was literally pulled from the market for clots. At the time I didn't know j&j was a adenovirus vaccine, and had I know I wouldn't have got that one either. Given I was 40 at the time and the fatality rate was basically 4 in 100K it wasn't really a priority. Any unknown risk would not have been worth it. Since I worked from home and moved to a remote area my risk of contracting covid was also zero.
The only fatality of Covid I know was a 92 year old on his death bed. it’s the first ever pandemic where it’s like, I either have the bubonic plague or a normal cold, I can’t tell the difference.

Thing is Michelle Obama championed this and even got a bill passed and republicans were furious
It shouldn’t take an anti Vaxxer with brain worms to push exercise. Back when they redid the food pyramid, republicans were mad people were told to cut back on grains.

Jon Huntsman.
I expect Jim Mattis would be good. John McCain if he were still alive. Hell, Romney.
Or Obama or Clinton if either of them could run again would be better.
Hell, Nikki Haley would have long since completely sewn this thing up and had her cabinet chosen if Republicans could get their shit together enough to choose someone halfway sensible. 11/3/2024 11:32:50 PM |

One party actively tried to institute policies to get me fired while I was expecting my first kid. I'd never vote for anyone in Biden's admin because of that alone.
Elon being in the admin, Vance paying lip service to the federal reserve issues and RFK saying he will end pharma advertising on TV and I couldn't really ask for anything more. It sucks its Trump at the center, but he clearly sees the political landscape based on his picks. The GOP has moved on from the boomer conservative.

be upset about all the dumb stuff dems do, great, i'm right there with you.
but when you say stuff like this, you're still doing something dumb too. and it's why the dems will continue to be a more rational choice than the gop, because as much as the dems are in denial, the gop is far far worse. they NEVER say they're wrong. at least some of us on the dem side can do it. don't go full gop, cael.
