ANDREW CUOMO: fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee

THE GHOST OF ALEX TREBEK: [rises from the grave] I’m sorry, the correct answer is “what is ‘float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.’” I can’t believe I came back from the dead just for this stupid joke. I hate you Andrew. we all hate you

BREAKING: A police officer has died after he was shot by a Anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist, who opened fire near the CDC complex and Emory University in Atlanta.

Your stupid conspiracy theories are literally killing people.

Let’s be clear: it’s not just “Josh Kraft’s dad”. It’s the Kraft Enterprise. It’s not about one person who makes & spends money in a vacuum - it’s about their multi-tentacled Enterprise, & Josh Kraft’s massive wealth comes from that Enterprise. He cannot extract himself from this #mapoli

Oh look, ICE is copying literal Nazi recruiting propaganda again. The poster on the right is for the Volkssturm, the Nazi militia of older men and boys established during the final months of World War II.

weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him

Strange that the President, who bragged abt sexually assaulting women & wrote his pedophile bestie that the meaning of life is raping children, would be unwilling to release the Pedo-files complied by said bestie.

Stopping vaccine development is another example of "eugenics is everywhere."

Expecting survival of the fittest when one gets infectious disease and cancer is eugenics.

A mugshot registration photograph from Auschwitz. A man with a shaved head wearing a striped uniform photographed in three positions (profile and front with bare head and a photo with a slightly turned head with a hat on). The prisoner number is visible on a marking board on the left.

We want lower prices and healthcare.

Ah, good point, your typical “avid cyclist” is probably all about vehicular cycling and anti bike lane.

Bouie makes an excellent point here too that this is where we see RFK Jr.'s eugenicism clearly. Vaccines are not needed because those with good genes will survive, while those who are weaker will be culled.

Agreed on all fronts here. Even otherwise smart public officials ultimately have trouble seeing that someone who is advocating for better cycling isn’t Lance Armstrong or the wildly unsafe and rude bike messenger they saw in that movie from the 1980s. You know the one. They’re just constituents too.

Whether or not people from outside the neighborhood get a say, also seems to depend on whether it would advantage prioritizing cars.

Common pattern when interpreting public input:

In a neighborhood of 10K+ people.

3 people complain about a bike lane = Most residents are against the bike lane

50 people say they want the bike lane = Cyclists are loud, they don't represent everyone

😐
