Republicans love ethnofascists.
Trump is a traitor.

Imagine if your teenager was killed by another teenager, and your response was to give more teenagers more guns. At Christmas.
Republican brand is ‘proud irresponsibility’.
Jussie Smollett should pay for the investigation and so should the many white people calling the police on black people doing every day activities while black. Don’t single out the black guy for a false police report and let all the white people doing them go. The ones really hurt by Smollett’s false claims are the future LGBTQ+ who are attacked and abused who wont be believed or viewed with suspicion due to what Smollett did. The right is going to have a field day with this issue, but am not putting this one in the misleading right wing section because it is true that Smollett has been found guilty of making a false report of being attacked by maga guys.

Invest in trains. Plan high-density walkable cities. Get rid of cars.

Misleading right wing media cartoons / memes
No that is not why. One of the jobs of these medical experts is to explain the situation, the issue in a clear way the public can understand. As in the first part using something that sounds like “new” would lead to confusion. Using the name of a country’s leader also would be confusing. It also would be inflammatory. The maga right wing crowd seem to forget that many wanted to call Covid 19 the tRump virus because of the horrible job he did dealing with the virus. How would the maga cult feel about their dear leader saddled with that? They would scream non-stop that their feelings were hurt. So the same with other world leaders. Hugs
Total misdirection. Pregnancies are not contagious. I can not catch the zygote from you. a bunch of women can not get pregnant from one pregnant woman. Covid is a virus, it is contagious just from being in a room with a person who has it. To get pregnant requires an action on your part, but catching Covid doesn’t require you to participate. Vaccine mandates are legal and have been required since before the US was a country. Good old George Washington required his soldiers to get vaccinated. Hugs
People are comparing 2021 gas prices to 2020 gas prices when the economy was in a covid lockdown and fewer people driving and demand was way down. Better comparison prices in 2018 (from Ballotpedia)“As of Aug. 7, 2018, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline ranged from $2.57 (Mississippi) to $3.77 (Hawaii).As of Aug. 7, 2018, average gasoline prices per gallon equaled or exceeded $3.00 in 11 states and Washington, D.C.The national average for a gallon of regular gasoline on Aug. 7, 2018, was $2.86.” Today in Austin gas is $2.95. Hugs
Why not return the abortion issue to the women and let them decide!? Right, leave it up to individual states to impose their rule over women. Next up, can religious rulers impose their views on their states’ populations? They don’t want the United States of America, they want the Independent States of America. More powers for the governors. The main fallacy with “return to the states and let the voters decide” is that the more oppressive states are doing their best to cherry pick who “the voters” are. If the abortion issue was truly decided by the voters it would be much more available as would birth control. Because the right to bodily autonomy should be constitutionally protected. It’s not that hard to understand. Because bodily autonomy is too important to let states have different rules. Something that we already do for a myriad less basic issues. Like which side of the road to drive on. Like requiring that everyone legally allowed have actual access to voting. Like requiring drugs be tested for efficacy and safety. Hugs

Thank you Cagjr. I am still getting over the bug. Yesterday when I was not working on the roundup, I was in bed sleeping. I was tired and thinking was near impossible. I went to bed right after hitting the publish button, Ron came to the bedroom at 6:30 PM carrying my evening pills, and I slept until 6 AM this morning. So far today I got somewhat tired at one point but worked through it and it seems to have dissipated. So I think I am on the mend. Hugs
