You what related thought has me enraged? This is a Health Canada approved RAT. And yet Bonnie Henry @cdcofbc.bsky.social @bcndp.bsky.social would rather sick little kids wait HOURS in the wait room than quickly administer tests.
Oh, f**k you, Bonnie Henry, @cdcofbc.bsky.social, @bcndp.bsky.social @bctf.bsky.social @ipaccanada.bsky.social for stigmatizing masks and choosing to infect all the kids INCLUDING VULNERABLE ONES instead of cleaning the damn air & 'fessing up to your incompetence re: aerosol transmission. #bcpoli

One of the reasons why I go so hard on science misinformation/disinformation, is that as a working scientist it is frustrating to see your research misreported to push an agenda.

For example, consider this piece of right-wing propaganda from The Telegraph that was just published

I wish people understood that when someone seems to overexplain, it’s often because of how much they’ve been misunderstood. They’re trying to give you information that they assume is hard to understand based on how they’ve been treated. This deserves compassion, not criticism.

Y'all get mad at me every election when I point out that the majority of white folk, and even the majority of white women, will vote for Trump.🤷🏿‍♂️

Yes in 2016, but also 2020 and 2024. Most white women voters in most states, consistently choose the most anti-Black candidate.

But not Minnesota.♥️👍🏿

"North is that way." But we’d also be delighted if you stayed a month or three, allowing us to invoice U.S. taxpayers $150-$200 for every night you’re here.

In the past, people without proper documentation would simply be turned away.
