We used to protect children from viruses. We used to protect immunocompromised adults too. We used to protect cancer patients from viruses known to cause and inflame cancer. We used to protect children from dangerous products that had killed ONE child. ONE.

How many deaths have u learned to accept?

It's hard to describe how I feel every time this happens. I'm so overwhelmingly angry. We HAVE the ability to vaccinate virtually everyone who can take the vaccines so that herd immunity works in so many communities. A horrible way of dying was almost gone forever. It's not fair. It's not fair.
A third infant has died in Kentucky, KYDPH adds:

“These are Kentucky’s first pertussis deaths since 2018. None of the infants nor their mothers received the recommended pertussis vaccinations during pregnancy or early infancy.”

Another reason why it's beneficial for the imperial core to erase Natives while maintaining love hate ambivalence & intersubjectivity among beneficiaries.
Eurocentrism is why Eucharist rites are considered sacred but Indigenous relationships to Doctrine of Signature have been suppressed.
Reminds me of concepts I read related to sympathetic magic like the "Doctrine of signatures" (where an herb looks coincidentally similar to body parts of ailments they treat.)

Ppl want to whine and complain that not enough Natives are "educating" ppl and yet this is how activist and advocates get treated that have been around a long time.
Notice we re all having to still beg for our lives for mutual aid. But everyone else gets to profit on our identity. Intersubjectivity among colonizers.
"but Grok said it's true" and yet you could've listened to Natives who have literally been documenting this for years without AI.

I know a lot of ppl got me muted that just love those fake me out "Native Pride" accounts.
And I know this is why ppl love the generic "Native proverbs" bot accounts but I would love for non Natives to interrogate why that is.

This needs to be a MUCH bigger story. We need help from so-called “allies” overseas to help with these human rights abuses, because we have been taken over by a fascist dictatorship.
Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Since the declaration of the supposed ceasefire, the Israeli military has violated it an average of ten or more times a day, murdering hundreds of Palestinians, including scores of small children.

There is no peace in Gaza, nor in the West Bank. As the genocide continues, so must our resistance.

This is why OpenAI is selling so aggressively to education at all levels—they want to create entire generations of users incapable of reading, writing and thinking without ChatGPT to hold their hands

And teachers and professors should call this out for what it actually is
To bear out this rosy projection, HSBC assumes that OpenAI will become "as ubiquitous [...] as Microsoft 365" (345mm users worldwide) while bringing in 10x the number of users (3bn).

It's much simpler than that. The Boy Scouts aren't maximally cruel to trans kids and so Republicans believe it should be destroyed.
