In 1938, the German Reich invalidated all German Jewish passports.
They must surrender them, after which their ID will mark them as a Jew.
In 2026, the state of Kansas invalidated all correct trans drivers licenses.
They must surrender them, after which their ID will mark them as trans.
I guess the new "savvy online thinker" trend is to act as if anyone advocating for Long Covid awareness and the mountain of peer-reviewed medical research on it are all blowing things out of proportion and should be ignored. Booooooo, lame, get a hobby.

I was vaxxed, boosted, and I had covid 1 time! It was mild! I was in my best shape, 30 yo. It still irrevocably fucked up my life!
26.02.2026 15:56 — 👍 14 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0As someone who has been dramatically changed by long covid but is not a covid zero-er, I don't see anyone in the LC community who is saying EVERYONE is disabled. But it CAN give people life-changing illnesses and it sucks! We don't want other people to have that! Why is that controversial...
26.02.2026 15:53 — 👍 10 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Did you look up this study? What about it feels fake to you? "Long Covid" can mean a symptom that lasts months. Why is it an issue that that's true? It could be a mild one, it could be one that really affects quality of life, it could be disabling. It's not 25% of the pop, its 25% of covid-havers.

26.02.2026 15:42 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Yes, "doesn't lower transmission" is incorrect, but it doesn't eliminate it, and thus our vax program certainly didn't. I think there's a big distinction btwn lying that vax don't work as "explicitly anti-vax" & explaining our failure to stop harm by not getting people vaxed & informed about spread

She's expressing that the US strategy for downplaying it all decreased the effectiveness of vaccines overall bc no vax is perfect & we didn't do enough to eradicate

⬇️ New study in Nature demonstrates that X's algorithm pushes people systematically toward more conservative policy positions
These effects are "sticky" and persist even if people later switch to a chronological feed since they're still following more right-wing voices
It is absolutely a choice.

As an American of literally 99% English-Scotts-Irish descent, I simply cannot choose between the thousands of jokes to be made about the "American culture" Musk describes.
I'll just confidently say I would, in fact, die to defend multiculturalism.
We used AI to find the moment of social unrest most optimized to distract from our launch of the Torment Nexus

I've tried to get this point across myself. Here, @brianbeutler.bsky.social does a great job of it. Liberal bias is a political tool — not a critique of performance — and it will assert itself regardless of how well the newsroom does on truthtelling and fairness. www.offmessage.net/p/a-requiem-...

Really pathetic how the MSM is repeating White House claims that a staffer posted the racist video after
*they denied earlier that it was racist
*did not name staffer or say they'd been fired
*post was amid dozens that he sent out
*post came at midnight. Was this staffer in his bedroom?
