Scientific freedom doesn’t mean that all opinions must be given consideration, or even courtesy. There are many truly fatuous, unreasonable, and useless opinions. Must NASA entertain the opinions of astrologers? Must pilots entertain the opinions of chemtrail conspiracy theorists? No.

I am tired of spineless incompetent men

The conservative movement is quite literally making us all die sooner.

This is what happens when a nation platforms wellness influencers instead of doctors.

Staggering amount of nepotism. Corruption so shameless you would think someone would stop this. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Could not be clearer: RFK Jr. is waging a war on science and public health. That’s what he was installed to do and he’s doing it. Because RFK Jr. has allied himself with major corporate interests in America that saw how COVID threatened their bottom lines and said “never again.”

Watching the current regime attempt north korea level of lying propaganda without the north korea state media infrastructure is funny. Like, my dude we have 4k video from multiple angles of what actually happened. Their propaganda should not work, and the fact that it is kinda working is sad.

I think this story is a really good example for people to look at when it comes to understanding bias at NYT. It's not that the reporter, Dana Rubinstein, says anything outright false. But the framing, word choices, etc., add up to an unprofessional and biased account.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

10/10 take. no notes

One day, the republicans will go "oops trump was bad teehee let's move on". It is imperative that we do not forgive them.

Mainstream media is doing free propaganda

The idea of “medical freedom” weighs one parent’s decision to refuse vaccines as more important than another’s decision to protect their own children from contagious, vaccine-preventable diseases”. @jimalwine.bsky.social and I in a new OpEd about AZ trying to ban childhood vaccine requirements.

Still can't believe we is this mess because the worst people have the most influence

Can't emphasize enough just how evil this regime is. Irreparable damage. Everyone who voted for or is apart of this has blood on their hands.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

My position to unconditionally hate ai and love wikipedia pays off everyday

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue." A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

We must not memory-hole just how complicit the mainstream media was (and still is) in this fascist regime's rise.

Why tenured academics and administrators insist that using this technology is unproblematic and just how the future should work with none of our input is baffling to me. Feels like a modern cargo cult.

Turns out having one major political party constantly stoking xenophobia, transphobia, bigotry, social darwinism, etc. makes people miserable.

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

I’m so tired of seeing people bash Bluesky for being an echo chamber when X is an actual intentionally constructed echo chamber that is demonstrably radicalizing people across the political spectrum who still use it

As incompetent and annoying as democrats are, remember the core evil are republicans. They will one day pretend they didn't do this. Do not give them a second chance.

Categorically evil.

After remaining silent for almost a year about the U.S. measles outbreak, NIH/CDC poseur Jay Bhattacharya is now recommending measles vaccines. And this is where he gets to see the impact of the destruction of trust in public health and vaccines, for which he is partially responsible.

Anti-vaxxers are bad parents. Not vaccinating your child is abuse. We should eliminate all non-medical exemptions for vaccines. Sorry, not sorry.

When I tell people why I don't touch ai I show them this

THE DEATH OF US SCIENCE ☠️

Evil looks like this.

yes, nothing says "innovation reinvention" like a nepobaby trust fund brat with no meaningful experience being gifted a massive hollywood empire by his technofascist dad, who leveraged his corrupt influence over the country's pudding-headed autocrats to box out competitors (?)

Evil looks like this

After 6 years of telling people not to trust the CDC, Podcast Jay is trying to reverse course now that it’s his job to stop measles. Too bad. He was a master at spreading doubt, utterly incompetent at restoring it and children are suffering as a result.

The problem with snake oil peddlers like Casey Means is not just that they promote products that are at best useless for profit. The danger is in the complete lack of character. If she’ll lie to you to sell books and supplements, imagine what she’ll do to gain and maintain power.

Unfortunately pointing out how conservatives are hypocrites can't hurt them because they know they are hypocrites they simply don't care

It’s been terrifying to have almost every year in the past 20 years be a lesson in how many people with power make decisions about who lives and dies with little thought or care or even a clear idea as to why they’re doing anything, and it’s terrifying that it seems to be getting worse

congress sounds cool i wish it was real

The King is mad

My decision to hate AI pays off everyday

Really annoyed at all the snotty "Erm, well I don't watch CNN!"/"No one watches CNN!"/"Who cares?!?!" responses to this post from people unable to think about the broader media landscape and information environment.

Brain turning into mush in real time. He is a skip away from raw meat carnivore diet.

Never heard of this law before right this second but holy fuck if it does not 100% check out

GOOD FOR THE LANCET. They've learned their lesson from 1998. May we do the same. (See link in comments)

This. Main stream media was already dead and rotting, but the epstein class just made them all into the walking dead, and they want to eat us. Support indie and nonprofit media. Even public media.

Netflix won't counter Ellison's offer. Ladies and gentleman, the full right wing power grab is here and will now be beamed into every home on CBS, CNN, HBO, movies from Warner and Paramount. about.netflix.com/en/news/netf...

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

casey means is dangerous and wildly unqualified for surgeon general in many, many ways, but especially in the way 42 U.S. Code § 205 outlines

They want to kill people and they are not subtle about it.
