Denying entrance to a Eucharistic Procession is to Catholicism kinda like what desecrating the flag is to the American civic religion, except with even more weight of history and tradition behind it!

26 year old stomped on and broke the eternal flame at the MLK center. Is this even making news outside of Atlanta?

Yes. Insist on calling it Anti-Fascist. This is a good idea.

Stop letting her lie about her beliefs.

I saw the pile on.

It was bad. People have a right to protect their peace.

Maybe the most important thing we do as parents these days, is provide soft landing pads.

I watched a friend bury a young loved one who died from Covid, and the cult indoctrination never broke.

It is absolutely NOT going to work properly on autistics and what will it be used to justify doing to us?

Oh nevermind. You aren't missing anything. Lol.

I think you are missing something.

The plan for financial viability comes expected profits due to the way it will be used for social engineering.

Look at who invested in it. That has always been the plan.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

Right. There was more than one person getting yelled at about AI video this morning. When the one I was following, an important voice in the fight against ICE, deleted their bluesky the threads co-mingled in my feed.

My mistake. Apologies. Please return to your regularly scheduled vitriol.

I understand now. A thread I was in about a woman that was hounded off bluesky this morning was cross-polinated with yours because a bunch of things from the thread I was following got deleted.

Your person is just ignoring everyone. My mistake.

Jenn Budd was a U.S. Border Patrol agent who became an immigration rights activist after resigning in protest against agency's corruption and brutality. Her voice was valuable, but it was deleted today because of the pile on that may have been aimed at this other person.

Maybe we could hold fire?

If you are referring to Jenn Budd, then this is a lie. Jenn Budd deleted her account, and it is still deleted.

But perhaps you are referring to someone else and should be allowed a little clemency to correct your mistake.

She deactivated the account. Massive pile on from east coasters on a west coaster who was busy with a sick spouse. This did no one any good.

Can we give people maybe 24 hours so that they have time to wake up on the west coast and maybe get home from taking a loved one to a dr visit before we break out the tar and feathers?

This is unfortunate

Jenn Budd does excellent and very necessary work, and it disappoints me that I have lost this important window into her work
