Yet another revered physician brought low by trantifa. The fear of being hounded for life by a massive militia of mentally unstable ppl causes experts to self-censor their own completed research. Ppl fear for their lives & families.

A demoralizing read for anyone that believes in western medicine.

Understood, not saying they didn't exist because I'm sure they do, but it isn't widespread at all. There are almost an infinite number of more important problems for the federal government than saving a few cats every few years.

Jimmy Kimmel's most hardcore fans on Bluesky don't watch the show. Let's be honest. People spent more time typing how much they love Jimmy Kimmel Live than they have ever spent actually watching Jimmy Kimmel Live

I have never heard of human research being done using dogs or cats as a representative species. I'm sure it exists somewhere, but I would guess that 99% of biological research done using cats or dogs, are literally researching cats or dogs. Not humans.

Humans have been GMOing for 10s of 1,000s of years. The dog is a perfect example of our GMOing! The entire genome of the dog has been dramatically altered (to the detriment of the dog!) to give them a slew of human-preferred traits.

& yeah I don't get how nuclear isn't a strong position of the left

And I'm sure we will learn that BMJ is Fake News, transphobic, & funded by AIPAC.

The far left only flipped their position on vaccines when the far right decided they suddenly hated vaccines. Anti-vax was a common position of the far left.

They both see evidence-based medicine as a political battleground in which they can pick & choose what to "believe in", discarding the rest.

A glimmer of hope in that the research may yet be published in the BMJ, which is one of if not the most prestigious medical journal in the 🌍. This is all due to 1 brave researcher willing to endure the death threats & permanent threat to their career & family. There are still heroes out there.

Except that the far left continually votes for the right more often than classical liberals. 12% of Bernie voters for example voted for Trump.

It's not surprising that this happens, & I'm not saying these people are irredeemable.

Jews are considered oppressors on our oppression totem. They might even be greater oppressors than gay men, & white women. It's certainly not to his benefit

Incidentally, I get some joy from opening these Pritzker fan's profiles & searching for posts containing the word "billionaire". Because you'll find that they have a unique stance on that issue only when it comes to JB Pritzker. They're ok that *he'll* do nothing about it, but otherwise not.

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 11h

He ticks the box of having the same last name as one of the 2 or 3 most important people in the transgender movement, though. His family has funded a large percentage of this social movement. Bluesky was always going to be in love with this particular billionaire heir.

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 11h

You are against hereditary advantages, yet you are already in the bag for the one guy that had billions of dollars handed to him & he never had to work for anything in life.

Are you honestly thinking that Pritzker would've still become governor if he grew up in a middle class family? Hmm

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 11h

The pro-billionaire, "anti-billionaire" voters of our party will frequently remind you over the next few years just why we nearly always make a bad choice in our primaries.

Here's how we fix the billionaire problem, guys (& they/thems!): pick the oligarch that had everything handed to him in life!

What truly amazes me most about Pritzker is how long it took a Democrat to realize that if you simply did the right thing and kept doing it authentically, all you need to do is keep doing that and you’re going to become the president

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 11h

That's exactly right.

& it's all continuing to this day. We're still not taking the reigns on any sort of messaging, 99.9% of the party is simply reacting to anything Trump wants us to be talking about

Meanwhile the 1 person going around the country & actually leading a unique conversation is Pete

Democrats lost the election due to a lack of campaigning for 4 yrs while GOP spread entertaining lies since Jan., 2021. Biden was too modest & voters had no clue what he'd done for them. Dems selfishly promoted individual priorities & only Buttigieg featured the unprecedented accomplishments.

Dems lost the White House last year due to late spending, a mid-battle candidate switch and lack of attention to voters’ top concerns, according to a Democratic National Committee post-election audit.

Two people briefed by the DNC said that so far, Biden’s age has not come up.

Yay billionaires! The one thing we need to fix & you would like to guarantee we do not fix it... Please do not vote in the primary

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 11h

Pete had absolutely zero to do with "pushing out" your lord & savior Bernie Sanders. Pete has only boosted Bernie over many years now.

You're not getting Bernie in 2028 no matter what you say or do

Mr. Herbert Garrison @dropthet.bsky.social · 12h

Entirely fake. Just because Pete is on the side of both the people of Israel & the people of Palestine, then all of his donations get labeled "AIPAC".

Fake. Fake. Fake. Next

A routine physical can be done in the White House. All the bloodwork etc can & often is taken there.

So he has gone to the hospital for testing *only available in a hospital* twice in the last 6 months.

We have normalized very elderly politicians so much in our country. #AgeLimits

No. He could get a checkup for anything like that in the White House.

It likely involved imaging tests which are only available in the hospital. They stacked all sorts of camouflage around the 6 month followup visit for a reason.

It's not Adderall or whatever other far left fever dream idea either
