Vaccines and Autism: A Measured Response
YouTube video by hbomberguy
youtu.be
A video describing The enormous grift behind the autism anti-vaccine movement. My daughter sent over this YouTube to me. In the UK, once they discovered what was going on, and debunked it, vaccination rates went way up! Then these clowns came to the USA. youtu.be/8BIcAZxFfrc

Well said Paul! Basically gain control, cause problems, blame democrats for them, do nothing to help, make them worse, rinse and repeat.
This is a vivid, well-reported story about poverty in McDowell County, WV, but there's a problem with the framing, and what's left out. The story talks about some of the ways the Trump administration has cut off funds to the place, but...

1/ For 15 years the truth has been hiding in plain sight. After the RedMap sweep in 2010 GOP built a system that let minority rule silence millions of urban voters. This thread exposes the pattern & shows who they are when they govern without limits. #Voices4Victory #DV1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

This is how it’s done! They want us to cooperate and cower to illegal challenges to our constitutional rights and have no idea what to do when we shove it back in their faces. We all need to learn non-violent non-cooperation. It really works.

One day we’ll have a Nurembug trial for all these ICE, Trump staff, followers, and everyone who commits war crimes for Trump. “Following orders” will not save them. www.facinghistory.org/resource-lib...

MSNBC has zero moral authority to talk about cowardice of Disney, ABC, or Republicans for bending the knee to MAGA when they did exact thing in their termination of me and others. They are doing the exact thing they complain about others doing.

This a great pummeling of Disney and their leadership's cowardice. Unfortunately, muzzling, censuring, and editing of content to please the orange clown will get worse for a while. Follow the money, it's ALWAYS about money. Not our kids!
A Dutch TV show like the Daily Show made this mocking Trump’s administration pressuring Disney to fire Jimmy Kimmel 😂

Wow, that’s hitting the nail on the head. Hitler and MAGA leaders repeating the horrors from history very intentionally and their cult mostly ignorant of some or all of it.
Nazis being nazis.

How Trumpism is like Stalinism. A thread. 🧵🧵🧵
Many people make valid comparisons of Trumpism to Nazism. But I think MAGA authoritarianism bears more similarities to Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union – ruthless, paranoid, dishonest and determined to climb into every aspect of the lives of his people.
