Too many are too selfish and don't care what happens to others, but DEMAND empathy when something happens to them.

No one, especially marginalized people, is obligated to tolerate the intolerance of hate. What is it about this that short circuits the brains of so many MAGA fascists? 😳👇

It’s the same “culture war” they’ve been waging since Reconstruction.

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."
Regardless of the disgraceful nonsense we will likely hear from this administration in the coming days on vaccine “recommendations,” Americas healthcare insurers issued a joint statement tonight saying coverage for Covid and flu shots will remain unchanged from prior years.
Speaks for itself.

In a sane world, Fox host Brian Kilmeade would be fired and shunned for his depraved comments that homeless people should be euthanized. That’s sick (and deeply ignorant), but sicker still is that it’s tolerated.

When calling someone “divisive” gets you fired, but proposing to murder homeless people keeps you going after an apology.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Unfreaking real. Firing someone for quoting the man's own words.. I don't know how much more hypocritical it can be.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.
The system is broken.

That oversight work would be effectively outsourced to state and local authorities, under this plan
