    Things are gonna get real fucking bad real fucking fast for working class people in this country.

    Economy is gonna get crashed by their decisions. Prices for food, water, electricity, and first aid are gonna go through the roof.

    People will suddenly lack access to medical care and with loss of federal funding hundreds of small rural hospitals may shut down.

    Disease will explode and they will push hard to ban wearing masks (some states have already done this.)

    As someone who is immune compromised every aspect of this shit makes me fucking furious.

    Sure, it might kill me, but more importantly, it’s going to kill hundreds of thousands.

    Start looking into Great Depression recipes now. Get involved in Mutual Aid Groups now. Start getting organized on secure messaging services right the fuck now.

    Be prepared to need to tighten your belt for a month during a General Strike.

    Did you guys ever see those memes on Reddit ridiculing health ministers who were obese? Reason informs us that it’s wrong to think a job like that needs someone who appears personally healthy rather than the education and training.

    It’s like people take the logic of TV and commercials to be the Platonic ideal, where a real person is only the imperfect copy trying to live up to the image.

    Anyway, RFK jr. sure is in good shape for his age. He must know a lot about health.
