Robert Malone, one of the quacks that RFK just put in charge of your vaccines, spent 2021 telling people that:
1. Hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin were effective for COVID
2. COVID vaccines were dangerous and made infection worse

Both of these claims were bullshit. These claims killed people I cared for. I had many patients come in with severe COVID who had avoided vaccination because of Malone’s bullshit, and then took ineffective drugs instead of getting the care they needed. Fuck that guy.

🤷🏿‍♂️ Y'all are still trying to play the game where you pretend that Trump's immigration policies are unpopular *with his base*.

The "They didn't vote for this!" stans really want to believe that.

But the Quinnipiac poll shows that 87% of Republicans approve of the way he is handling immigration.🤦🏿‍♂️

To put into perspective how astronomically high 87% is...

In 2012, 87% of Black men voted for Obama. Republicans like the way immigration is "being handled" as much as Black men liked Obama.

🤔I swear, I don't think some of y'all even talk to Trump voters before you claim that they don't like this.

Im a pretty okay writer. I post to my blog once every 45 days (give or take). I don’t do much promotion. I limit my SEO to technical stuff. I’m not on corporate social media.

Yet, I get a respectable amount of traffic each month. “From Jason” is one of the most popular things I’ve ever made. And it’s literally just text on a static site.

There is a thirst for writing; a desire for humanity in our art. Keep writing. Keep sharing.

One realizes that this is just someone spamming an obnoxious opinion for engagement, and yet, this also gives me an excuse to post a picture of Krissy, who if she's meant to appear 15 years older because she let her gray grow in, looks pretty damn spectacular for 70.

Here's a better idea: Women in your 50s (or any age!), wear your hair in whatever way gives you joy and don't let anyone try to shame you for however you choose to present yourself. You deserve to be your authentic self.

"Choosing to opt-out of LGBTQ+ discussions does not make one anti-LGBTQ+."

Yes, it fucking does. You should know better.

They claim not to be against LBGTQ+ people, but they want to avoid ever seeing that term in the Fediverse?

Give me a break. You are not fooling anyone.

This is precisely why so many people still have a problem with #Fosstodon.

Y'all seem committed to not learning any lessons.

I hoped this never needed saying as it should be obvious but here we are ... 😮‍💨

Let me make this clear:

If you are a normal user on an instance, you must follow their rules - that's the standard you should (and hopefully will) be held up to.

If you are a moderator, the standards are higher: you not only have to enforce those rules, but you have to apply those strictly (the spirit behind them) to yourself as well - but you are also held up to a higher standard because you are a representative of your instance.

And if you are an admin of an instance? Well, let's say that you not only have to live up to all the standards but you have to go above and beyond and not only think about the safety of your own users but also of users all around the Fediverse - you have to judge yourself not just by the rules of your instance but by morals and ethics that lie behind them. And yes, you have to be willing to accept responsibility above and beyond all of that and for all the actions of your users - ALL OF THEM! And you have yo be ready to listen to people who criticize you, your actions, your words, the meaning behind those words and the meaning behind the meaning of those words and so on and so on. You have to choose your words wisely, trash the post you were planning more often than post them; be quiet rather than say something; listen rather than speak...

And you can not be thin-skinned: in the end, whatever your users, and more importantly, your mods, do or say will reflect on you - because you are the admin and you are the one who chose the moderators on your instance.

What I am trying to say is that you as an admin must be ready to be held to way higher standards than even your rules state - if you can't live with it, just leave or shutdown your instance.

@playboicartifan696 a 1 day old account using charged language like "stalking" to describe legitimate criticisms of a white woman while using digital Black face?

Oof. Whoever this is, this is beyond the pale.

If you need to make a fake account to win an argument then maybe your argument is trash.
