What's going on here is that they're not allowed to publish data about actual issues under the Trump/Musk coup rules, because that might benefit regular folks instead of billionaires.

Yeah, fuck these blatant fascists. Heinous motherfuckers.

The best part of bird flu? They can't control it and it affects people equally.

My favorite part? The Rs don't believe in vaccinations or masks.

great until they decide vaccination and masks are illegal

I'm still ok with it because people will die at a rate way too high for masked people to be targeted.

I dunno... during lockdown here one hospital-invading-and-harassing high profile superspreader flat earther died leaving his wife and kid behind, but all of his unauhorized confined space party going chums are still around and spreading hate and drivel, even more loudly and confidently since trump part 2 was announced even though is isn't the states.

You know, sometimes being a marginalized person with a modicum of awareness makes you feel like Cassandra- you just know what's coming for your whole life, and the exact details may shift but the pattern is familiar, unsurprising and disappointing. I always knew that the christo-fascist take over of our government would be a lot of stupid, heinous shit, but I didn't expect plague to feature so prominently. I'd honestly thought we were done with that particular horseman.
