I think #Trump / the #GOP will chip away at #Section230 in a manner similar to how #FOSTA / #SESTA chipped away at it. So yeah, not a wholesale scrap and replace, but they’ll find a way to punch holes in it. 😢

Have you read all the studies by experts? Ive read enough of them that I can usually detect good studies from bad ones. The studies (not that book) are what matter.

Yes, I trust subject matter experts who spend their lives trying to get to the truth. As a gay man who came out at the height of the AIDS pandemic, experts liked those saved lives like mine. I’d probably be dead if it weren’t for people like that.

But I’ve read And The Band Played On - so I see how horrible it is when those experts aren’t funded and when they’re ignored.

#ScienceMatters

Most of the scientific community disagrees with you and is appalled by the nomination. It’s the hacks and bad actors that are happy.

Exactly. People have forgotten how horrible some of these diseases are, so they don’t see why we accept the milder risk of #vaccines.

People have forgotten how devastating the constant boom & bust economy was in the 17 & 1800s, so they don’t understand how #TheFed is better.

People have forgotten how horrible autocratic governments are (because they stopped being interested in what’s happening around the world), so they can’t see the danger in the #politicians they elect.

With the GOP fully in charge next year, I’m expecting a big change back to sanity in 2026. At least that’s my hope. Maybe I’m just too big of an optimist.

A competent professional with tons of experience vs a conspiracy theorist who doesn’t trust science…

NYC doesn’t have nearly the issues with the homeless/unhoused that the rest of the nation has. The reason is we have a right to shelter almost no one else has. The City has to provide shelter even if you’re an undocumented alien shipped here by a red state. While we have some free public toilets - it’s the right to shelter that makes the biggest difference.

Politico gets Democratic sentiment right - the fault is with Biden…

Breitbart doesn’t have a clue what we liberals think. It would be more accurate to say most liberals think Biden should never have run for a 2nd term. I really like Harris, but what we needed was a full primary process — it would have produced a better candidate - even if that candidate was Harris. Sadly it’s a political process and those were the politics of the moment.

If your number is on the (US) National Do Not Call List then the calls already are a felony.
