Exactly. That’s the “not addressing the actual problems” part. It’s a sounds-good, feels-good, low impact, high visibility token effort. Throw out a little morsel for the general public that doesn’t really help, but critically, doesn’t impact profits for the wealthy class.
Did she, though? All I remember is something about a “new small business” subsidy fund, which is… good, I suppose, but didn’t address any of the probkems the average American is facing.
Okay, there was also the suggestion of Medicare for all, which would put a dent in things, but I only heard it casually mentioned once and it sounded like something she was “open to discussing,” not a core part of her platform.
Aside from that, there was nothing directly addressing the core daily problems the majority of people are experiencing, like overpriced living expenses and underpaid wages.
Fair point. It’s going to be an absolute shitshow. If worm brain and felon fuckrat eviscerate the FDA, I don’t even know vaccines would continue to exist in the US.
Certainly, pharmaceuticals have a vested interest in continuing to produce them. Best case, they defer to regulatory standards from other nations and the FDA becomes a rubber stamp agency. Worst case, they’re allowed to peddle dangerous products without proper trialing.
WTF is going on in this thread? Are milkies the new tankies?
Hilariously, they’ll be culling their own herd, so to speak. You just know the MAGAts will never wear masks again, even to save their own lives.
This has to be the way to (possibly literally) die on a hill. There’s simply no downside to pasteurization. It effectively inactivates dangerous pathogens because, unless you have a cow in your back yard and can strictly adhere to your supposed “hygiene” protocols that magically negate the safe and reliable process of we’ve been using for well over a century… you know what, no. Your take is just ratfuck insane.
Yeah no, I didn’t mean it that way. Shit’s completely fucked, I probably just have outrage fatigue.
Nothing has happened to captain cheeto after he literally raped a child, so I can’t say I’m surprised.
What’s the difference, really? Aren’t they both decentralized microblogging social networks?
Well whaddaya know, you get what you pay for.
That being said, companies should be legally obligated to provide security patches for a minimum number of years.
Yeah, this is one of the main problems impeding lemmy’s growth. Normies don’t care about “instances.”
Maybe there needs to be some rough IP geolocating to just pick one for them and redirect.
